Thirteen per cent were injured while riding horseback, playing tennis, baseball, swimming, etc.

In all the comferts of home, and with no fear of having to stand for three houss or so, you may hear Wagner's “Tristan and Isolde” on NBC-WIRE tomorrow afternoon, with Lauritz Melchior and Kirsten

Flagstad in the name parts.

Mr. Ellington, blindfolded, will attempt to guide himself along a miniature radio beam to a “landing” on a small replica of the Chicago Airport. Other demonstrations are to include the robot pilot, the Link trainer for teaching instrument landing to pilots, and working plane

Mr. Boyle, who took part in the Dublin Insurrection of 1916 and was a member of the famous Irish Volunteers, spent 18 months in prison and many more as a fugitive in the hills. The “Twenty Years Ago” program tonight will drama= tize some of those experiences, which, incidentally, led him indirectly into radio. While participating in. the guerilla raids on the Black and Tans, the rebels used the Morse code for sig=naling by flashlight and mirrors. When peace with England finally came, Mr, Boyle went to sea as & “sparks” and eventually entered commercial radio.

The insistence upon the aspect of comfort is the fact that even the S 7.8

standing room has been sold out at the Metropolitan during the past

Newman technique of listening tomorrow. Mr. Newman's scheme didn’t have to do with radio broadcasts, but he once said that he could read an orchestra score at home and derive more pleasure from it than from an actual performance, since his mental instruments never hit any wrong notes. Now, if the listener has seen the opera, he may sit back and clothe the music with a more ideal decor and action than he might find in many opera houses. n ” "

Tomorrow's “Tristan” will be something of an occasion for Mr. Melchior. For it will mark the 125th time that he has sung the Cornish knight. His debut in the role was in Barcelona in 1929, four years after he came to the Metropolitan. Since then he has sung the part in 16 opera houses under 22 conductors, among them Toscanini, Artur Bodanzky (who will conduct tomorrow), Furtwaengler and Sir Thomas Beecham. Mme. Flagstad, of course, has has been the reigning Wagnerian sensation since her Metropolitan debut in 1935. And it's a little hopeless to try to say anything about the Melchior-Flagstad ‘Tristan and Isolde” that hasn't been said already. Other principals in tomorrow’s cast will be Gertrud Wettergren as Brangaene; Emanuel List as King Mark, and Julius Huehn as Kurvenal. The broadcast is scheduled to begin at 12:40 p. m., and WIRE is to carry it from 1 o'clock until the
