IF SHE doesn't reform him before marriage she will probably never succeed. Marriage does not reform men—it often makes them worse, especially if they have some bad habit, such as drinking. Marriage does not take away the drink appetite nor transform the pathological drinker—and all excessive drinkers are pathological drinkers—into a man with sound nerves and clear head. No woman ever undertook a more hopeless job than that of marrying a man to re-

Good Radio Music

By JAMES THRASHER

It's hail-and-farewell night among the musical air waves this evening. The hailing will be directed at the Grant Park Concerts in Chicago, beginning their third consecutive radio season at 8 o'clock via WENR

and the National Broadcasting Co.

The program has not been a&n-®

nounced, but it will be presented by the Chicago Civic Opera Orchestra, under the baton of Henry Weber, who also is musical director at WGN, Chicago's Mutual outlet. Subsequent concerts are to be presented by Chicago's Symphony Ore chestra, Women's Symphony Orchestra, Philharmonic, Walter Steindel’s Orchestra and bands conducted by Armin Hand, George Dasch, A. F. Thaviu, P. A. Cavallo and Glen Bainum, all of whom have been heard from Grant Park in previous seasons. An addition to ‘he roster will be the NBC Orchestra, which will play under the direction of Roy Shields, NBC's Central Division mu sic director. ” ” ” The evening's farewell will be for the Boston Symphony Orchestra, which concludes its delightful “pop” concert series with a broadcast at 6:30 o'clock on NBC-Blue network stations. Tonight's outlook seems a little less “delightful” than some others, containing, as it does, some pretty well-worn concert items. However, their musical worth and the assurance of a capital performance will offset the program's chestnut flavor. are two

After that, listeners are to hear a Ballet Suite by Rameau, Sibelius’ “Finlandia,” the Sixth Hungarian Dance by Brahms and RimskyKorsakov's “Caprice Espagnol.” » ” o Werner Janssen seems to be turning his back upon serious music in favor of Tin Pan Alley, his first love. Whether this be from choice or necessity is open to conjecture. At any rate, he will begin a new, sponsored popular-music series at 5:30 p. m. Sunday, via NBC. Mr. Janssen, having crashed the “highbrow” circles with his “New Year's Eve in New York,” went on to build himself a reputation as Europe's No. 1 Sibelius interpreter. Returning home, he had the distinc tion, among other things, of being the first native New Yorker to conduct that city’s Philharmonic-Sym-phony Orchestra. His most noteworthy accomplish ment of recent seasons was the musical score for the picture, “The General Died at Dawn,” which many believe to point the way that soundtrack music must follow. One of his least praiseworthy ventures has been the musical accompaniment for the Don Ameche-Charlie McCarthyW. CO. Fields Sunday night radio show. His arrangements and performances have failed to make Class A in either the “serious” or “swing” categories.

Murray Hill Telephone Number Best Known On Air Waves.

By RALPH NORMAN Bing Crosby leaves his “Music

| Hall” program for the summer after tonight, but he’ll be on the air oc- | casionally in connection with NBC's horse racing broadcasts.

He and several other movie celeb-

| rities will help Clem McCarthy Sat-

urday at the microphone when NBC carries the opening program of the new Del Mar track. Bing and his film and radio associates put up the money for the million-dollar venture and several of them, including the crooner, will have horses entered. After tonight, when he presents Toby Wing and Roland Young of the films and Mischa Levitsky, brilliant concert pianist, on his informal guest parade, Bing leaves “Music Hall” to Robin Burns. Bob, you will recall carried on very successfully in Bing’s absence last summer, Like Bing Crosby, Lanny Ross leaves the air after tonight, but unlike Bing, Lanny will not return in the fall to the program he has headed so long. Next Thursday evening will see an entirely different “Show Boat” launched on NBC, with Charles Winninger again in command. Helen Stravss of the “Show Boat” staff writes me she will be very happy when the program is moved out of her Hollywood hotel suite ‘and onto the Mississippi. She says a picture studio has been set up in her living room, that costumes are being delivered to her door, and realism is being observed even to having her suite cluttered with life preservers. To many, the return of Charles Winninger, booming and robust, with a competent crew which now includes Thomas Thomas, Metropolitan auditions winner, and Virginia Verrill, blues singer, with Meredith Willson’s orchestra, should be a gala radio event. ” » »

Appointment of Dr, James Rows= land Angell, retiring Yale Univer= sity president and one of the country’s foremost educators, to NBC's educational advisory staff is hailed by educators as another important feather in the senior network’s cap. Concurrent with Dr. Angell’s appointment comes an NBC announcement that about 25 per cent of the chain's total broadcasting time will be devoted to educational and cultural programs. Dr. Angell, to supervise and direct these programs, will occupy an office in Radio City and will receive a salary reported by NBC to be $25,000 annually. Heading the list of educators who expressed pleasure in Dr, Angell’s appointment is John W, Studebaker, U. 8. Commissioner of Education, who predicts “development of new plans for such co-operation between broadcasters and educators as will increasingly serve the general welfare” NBC's new emphasis on cultural, sustaining broadcasts doubtless grows out of CBS-NBC rivalry. Such a healthy development as this is to be commended wholeheartedly, though some of the network rivalry has taken a rather silly turn. Radio, at the moment, shows signs of acute growing pains. CBS, I'm sure, will follow NBC's appointment of Dr. Angell with a similar appointment, and the junior chain likewise doubtless will outline an extensive series of cultural programs. tJ ” ” Alexander Woollcott, CBS “Town Crier,” was invited, it seems, to Charles MacArthur's country home at Nyack, N. Y. When the portly broadcaster and another guest, Francis Lederer, the screen player, arrived at Nyack’s tiny station, no MacArthur limousine awaited them. The limousine had broken down. When MacArthur finally arrived, it was in a dilapidated vehicle of ancient vintage borrowed from the gardener. MacArthur passed the situation ofr lightly with, “Just my town car” “What town?” Woollcott inquired. “Pompeii?” o ” n The above item is good enough excuse to clear up this complicated McCarthy-MacArthur situation. Charles MacArthur is Hele Hayes’ husband and a playwright of ime portance. Charlie McCarthy never wrote anything, but he does a lot of talking each Sunday evening as Edgar Bergen's dummy. It's surprising how many listeners believe that Charlie is a real person, playing stooge to Mr, Bergen, and that this ventriloquist claim is pure hoax. It you're one of the skeptics, you're wrong, for Charlie's voice is Bergen’s voice, though I admit it's hard to believe as it comes from the loudspeaker. Indianapolis, too, has its Charles McCarthys — three generations of them, in fact. Charles McCarthy, 814 E. 46th St. has a son and a grandson by the same name, Charles II, who works at Engine House No. 30, explained a few of their friends aren't above making jokes about the now-famous name, and certainly, he likes to listen to the very smart little fellow on the radio. n o on Among Maj. Bowes sundry ace complishments during his success ful network career is the publicizing of & telephone number, making Murray Hill 8-9933 radio's best known number. Eighteen billion times have listeners heard that number mentioned over CBS since the Major has been a junior network feature, CBS statisticians would have you know. The CBS statisticians, apparently with little to do, figured this is 144 times the population of the United States and 10 times the population of the world. All right, here’s how they do it. They estimate Bowes’ listening audience at 25,000,000 persons weekly (this is CBS’ estimate, not mine), the number is repeated six times on each broadcast and the program has been on CBS for 120 weeks. Take a long breath and youll arrive at the 18 billion total.

I'm at Murray Hill 8-833. Where

are you?
