One of the most remarkable items of summer news is the success of the Manuel and Williamson Harpsichord Ensemble, heard tonight and each Tuesday at 8:30 o'clock from Chicago on NBC. By rights, this series should come under the heading of “novelties,” but its audience seems long since to have stopped saying “My, isn't it quaint,” and settled down to the habit of hearing 17th and 18th Century music in the media for which it was written. We have had ancient-instrument

‘Good Radio Music By JAMES THRASHER

With topcoats and football already with us, we may as well take a regretful and retrospective glance at passing summer, an

and at its radio

There were few days that failed to offer listeners something of merit in the musical line, what with our increasing number of music festivals and the trend toward chamber music broadcast during daylight The excellent orchestras of ¢

Kreiner Quartet. In fact the net-

liamson programs is different. If the series did not have a sizeable audience, NBC would not devote 30 minutes of valuable after-dark time to this unsponsored music. It may be hoped that these programs will develop an appreciation of the particular appeal of the hatpsichord and related instruments. This is not to say that the works of Bach, Handel, Couperia and their contemporaries should not be played on the modern piano. Surely these masters would have welcomed our sonorous instruments, and written to fit their possibilities. But since these composers conformed their writings to the limited scope of their keyboard instruments, modern performance on these same instruments is in the interest of truth and beauty. Tonight’s harpsichord ensemble program lists a Bach Toccata and the Rondo from Beethoven's Sonata Opus 13 as harpsichord solos, the Alla Turca from the Mozart A. Ma-

"How 15,000 men and women coms bat 100,000 criminals will be demonstrated in a one hour broadcast tonight at 7:30 when NBC dramatizes the far-flung activities of Uncle Sam’s Treasury agents over the Blue network. Through the co-operation of Secretary of Treasury Morgenthau, he radio audience will be taken on a microphone tour of the nation, visiting various points for glimpses. of the agents at work. Actual cases now engaging the agents will be dramatized from hitherto undisclosed files of the Treasury Department. Functions of some of the little known units of the law enforcement arm of the Treasury Department are to be explained. Secret Service men will be heard on the program along with members of the Intelligence Unit, the Bureau of Narcotics, the Customs Burgau, the Alcohol Tax Unit and the U. S. Coast Guard. Among those who will be heard on the program are Steven Gibbons, Assistant Secretary of the Treasury; Elmer L. Irey, head of the Intelligence Unit of the De-~ partment of Internal Revenue; Harry J. Anslinger, Commissioner of Narcotics; H. B. Taylor, assistant supervisor of the Louisville district, an old time “revenuer,” and Mrs. William Friedman, the Treasury Department's famous “T-wom-an,” who is an expert at decoding messages.

“You be my guest star and I'll be yours” seems to be the rule among air entertainers. Any-. how, Ben Bernie, the old maes- - tro, will be Al Jolson’s guest tonight on the “Mammy” singer's variety show over CBS-WFBM at 6:30. Mr. Jolson, it may be remembered, favored Ben on the latter’s show last week. Exotic Gertrude Niesen will star on Ben Bernie's own show, to be heard tonight at 7 over WLW. Miss Niesen, film, stage and night club luminary, is now in Hollywood preparing for work in her second feature picture. The Old Maestro also is starting work on his next film.

Charles Leo (Gabby) Hartnett, catcher and. sparkplug of the Chicago Cubs, is to tell how he rose to the baseball heights on Edgar A. Guest's It Can Be Done program, to be heard tonight at 6:30 over WLW. “Gabhby’s” career began, the story goes, when a friend won a catcher's mitt on a punch board and presented it to “Gabby” when he was 12 years old. “Gabby” slept with the mitt that night, it is reported, and has been pretty close to a mitt ever since.

‘Thirteen hundred American Legionnaires, attending their national convention in New York, will fill theeworld’s largest broad. casting studio in Radio City when Johnny the Call Boy presents his weekly program tonight at 6 over WIRE.

Charles Martin’s “Thrill of the Week” will dramatize the story of Sergt. Walter McConnell, World

War hero, who, wounded in aé- |

tion, operated on himself in No Man’s Land and saved his life. Russ Morgan and his orchestra, the Swing Fourteen, and Frances Adair will offer a medley of ware time songs. The big Legion parade which started this morning and was expected to continue until midnight tonight will be described at interA tonight by all three major ains, ‘Broadcasts of the Legion’s activi

ties during the daylight period to- .| morrow include:

CBS—Ladies’ Auxiliary meeting, 8:30-9 a. m.; NBC—concert contest winners, 10: 30-10: 45 a. m.; MBS— re-enactment of the attack on Fleville, part of the Meuse-Argonns offensive, 3:15-3:45 p. m. ” » ”

A description of the home life of Ge’ ralissimo Chiang Kaishek, / nost powerful man in Chins. and its leader in the current conflict with Japan, told by a Chinese husband and wife said to know Chiang well is promised for the Husbands and Wives program tonight. The broadcast will be heard over the NBC-Blue net, work at 6 p. m. today. Mme. Chiang Kai-shek, as newspaper readers know, was educated in the United States and then returned to China to marry Chiang, theg » young war lord. She is credi molding Chiang’s career. Other questions to be discussed on the matrimonial program ine clude: What should a wife do who complains that her husband wouldn't take her to the American Legion convention? What should a husband do when his wife keeps the shades down in the daytime and insists on keeping the lights subdued at night? What about the husband who constantly hurts his wife’s feelings and then says, H didn’t mean it”?

Phil Baker, comedian-accordionist, will come to the aid of Lanny Ross and Charles ‘Butterworth during the third Hollywood Mardi Gras broadcast over NBC-WIRE at 7:30 tonight. The visiting funster will attempt to accompany Mr. Ross with his pleated piano for a musical number and then will join Deadpan Butterworth in an attack on the risibilities of the unseen audience. Mr. Baker will be without the services of his noted stooges, Bottle and Beetle, and it may be interesting to hear just how he gets along without them. ‘Mr. Ross, Florence George, Janie Rhodes and Raymond Paige's ore chestra will furnish the melody and rhythm.
