I THINK Mr. Cobb has something there of national importance. I have never seen a house big enough to hold a wife and the stuffed sailfish, . mountain sheep, deer, mooseheads and other trophies —or alleged trophies—of the husband’s hunting or fishing prowess. Mr. Cobb says in Think that he tried his moosehead in the d room, but it gave his wife the feeling sle was dining with somebody out of the Oid Testament—and now it is in the garage. It is safer matrimonially speaking to donate them to the museum or lodge hall.

THIS OPINION was expressed recently by the psychologists at the national convention of the American Psychological Association at Minneapolis. They presented evidence that war is a true mental dis-
that it is due to the same type of causes, namely frustration of the hopes and expectations of the citizens. Scientists believe .wars, strikes and class antagonisms have the same mental and emotional origins and, only by treating these mental and emotional causes, will we ever prevent them.

Good Radio Music By JAMES THRASHER
tomorrow a’ If you are a Bruckner or Mahler enthusiast you may hear 45-minute broadcast of these composers’ music from Queen's Hall in London by way of BBC, MBS and its key station, WOR. The hour is 2:15
p. m. and, since it is a daylight broadcast, there is something better than an even chance that local listeners may hear the program.
tion will be Bruckner’s Overture in G Minor and Mahler's Eighth Symphony, the “Symphony of the Thousand.” Sir Henry Wood is to conduct, and the soloists for the symphony will include Stiles Allen, May Blyth and Laelia Finneberg, sopranos; Muriel Brunskill and Margaret Balibur, contraltos; Walter Widdop, tenor; Harold Williams, baritone, and Robert Easton, bass. There doesn’t seem to be any halfway in the prevailing opinions concerning the simple, devout, provincial organist, Bruckner, and the internationally famous conductor, but unhappy and misunderstood composer, Mahler. One either admires them extravagantly or is left cold by their music. At least so it would seem when one starts collecting
" ” "
The Bruckner society in New York sporadically publishes a magazine devoted to these composers. In these publications one finds analyses, defenses, hisses for the detractors and cheers for the composers who present their favorites’ works and the critics who speak kindly of the efforts. There is a fervor in these writings matched in our pres-ent-day life only by the warm zeal of certain political and social movements. On the other hand you wil find plenty of company if you entertain a Bruckner-Mahlerphobia. Eugene Ormandy once told me Mahler's example had kept him away from
Included in the broadcast por-®—
discernible in almost every meas-
ure.” » ” ”
And, without attempting to quote from memory, there is Deems Taylor's witty observation to the effect that Mahler went to his writing desk armed with a tremendous facility for expression, only to discover that he had nothing to say. Well, the passage of time doubtless will reveal that, as usual, the truth lies somewhere between the extremes. Meanwhile it is hearten-
ing to know that music still has the power to arouse militant enthusiasm. A listener may be woefully wrong in “booing” a composer, either in the concert hall or in writing. But it always proves that the public isn’t sleeping complacently through the evolution of the art.

TONIGHT
6:45——Famous Fortunes, Mutual. 7:00—Big Town, WFBM. 7:30--Al1 Jolson, WFBM. 8:00—Al Pearce, WFBM. 8:30—Mardi Gras, WIRE. 8:30—Jack Oakie, WFBM. 10:30—Leo Reisman, WIRE.
American history has undergone a great deal of rewriting lately. The publication of such volumes as Beard’s “American History,” Woodward's “New American History,” “The Robber Barons” and, lately, “America’s 60 Families” has provided new interpretations. and placed emphasis upon those whom Theodore Roosevelt called the “malefactors of great wealth.” And now radio, ever ready to play “follow the leader,” is about to cons. tribute its bit. Tonight at 6:45 o'clock over the Mutual system, you may hear this effort entitled “Famous Fortunes,” the first of a series depicting the lives of the great American fortune builders. The broadcast tonight will consid= er Commodore Cornelius Vanderbilt and his part in shaping the course of the nation’s history. Vanderbilt, as you may remember, started with $100 capital and created the largest fortune of his day. He made his “pile” mainly in transportation— shipping and railroading. The sponsor of “Famous Fortunes” is, at the moment, unnamed. When the product is announced tonight— if it is—you may be able to tell what sort of an interpretation of history youll get for your time. ” tJ os If it's contemporary entertain ment you're after, you'll find it tonight on the Caravan broadcast at 8:30 o'clock over CBS-WFBM. It won't be history in the making, but Jack Oakie, Beatrice Lillie and Tyner Rogers sound like a college ull. The program notice also states that “King Benny Goodman, chief rideman of the agony-pipe, will shave off the beard for Bea Lillie. Gators and cats will rock to the jive of the quartet, Benny on the black-stick, Gene Krupa whacking the voodoo boilers, Teddy Wilson lathering up the moth-box and Lionel Krupa smearing and beating out on the wood-pile. Msd¥tha Til= ton will get in the groove with five anthems and the boys will sock the Killer-diller with a mess of barrelhouse”-—whatever that means. It has something to do with music: o on ”
Lanny Ross reports what might be considered cheery news—that is if the paragraph above seems incomprehensible. He writes that it is his belief that America is re--verting in its song style to the: simple ballad of its early musical history. A folio of his “Song Treasures,” published recently, features, for the most part, folk tunes, pro-. vincial airs and world favorite: love songs. If you want a demonstration, you might tune in on the Mardi Gras program tonight over NBC-WIRE at 8:30 o'clock and°® hear Lanny working on his theory.. And then there's the comedyroutine featuring Walter O’Keeféand Charles Butterworth to provide variety. 8 = =n
The plan is so tentative it should hardly be mentioned above a whis= per—but Toscanini’s engagement on NBC may be extended beyond the original 10 concerts. The 10th will be broadcast Feb. 26. : The small maestro’s temperament continues to roar out now and then as he rehearses. In a moment af exasperation last week he yanked his watch from his pocket and hurled it to the floor. One of the violinists carefully picked up all the pieces and handed them back to Toscanini. a Oddly enough, the smashed watch was the one presented to him by the Philharmonic-Symphony musicians two years ago. : ” » ou A As Fred Allen walked into the studio just before broadcast time recently, the page boys solemnly formed a cordon around him and escorted him to the stage, march= ing goose-step all the way. Just an idea of the boys as a surprise. Fred announced to the studio audi= ence, “We've just heard from Mayor Hague. It will be all right to broadcast this program into Jersey City.” on » = The two outstanding dramatio bits on the airwaves tonight feature Helen Menken and Basil: Rathbone, Miss Menken will beheard in another episode of her “Second Husband” series over CBS-WABC at 6:30 o'clock. The. role isn’t exactly a trying one. for the actress, but she manages. to breathe some life into it. Mr. Rathbone, whom you may. remember as the Browning reciter on the Crosby program and who played so well the tempestuous Tybalt in the movie version of “Romeo and Juliét,” comes to the. microphone tonight as the guest of Al Jolson. The program is heard at 7:30 o'clock over CBSWFBM.
