4 AN experiment on improving was made by M. G. Wight, Wayne University psychologist, on 47 crippled children. One-half was given exercise for two months in bea ime to music, dancing, etc., while the other half was untrained. The trained group improved over 18 per cent-in rhythmic ability. Arthur Murray, dancing authority, says out of 50,000 persons he has trained to dance only two did not have sufficient natural rhythm to learn dancing. I still have hopes.

S Virginia Majewski and ‘Miss Shapiro Soloists On Music Hour

By JAMES THRASHER Mozart, who seemed to write for any given combination of instruments with equal felicity, will be represented on tomorrow's Curtis

2:45 p. m.) by the Symphonie Con-

certante for violin, viola and orchestra. This is the only composition for these two instruments with orchestra, but there are two duets for violin and viola alone. Tomorrow’s soloists will be Eudice Shapiro and Virginia Majewski. The accompanying orchestra will be conducted by Fritz Reiner. : The 45-minute program will be. completed by the orchestra's playing of two overtures, that to Beethoven’s ballet music to “The Men of Prometheus” and Tschaikowsky’s “Romeo and Juliet” fantasy. The “Prometheus” music had the somewhat unusual distinction of immediate. popularity with the Viennese public. In addition, the music contains what seems to have been a favorite theme of the composer. This music, found in the ballet music’s finale, was used later as a Contredance, as the basis for some elaborate piano variations and, perhaps most familiar to the public, as that rugged, bare outline which is the theme of the “Eroica” Symphony's finale, : 2 =» 8 CHan-Carlo Menotti, hard at work on an NBC-commisisoned opera for radio, has announced that the new music drama will be ready for a network - premiere next fall. The opera was commissioned last spring, shortly after the brilliant success of the young composer's “Amelia Goes to the Ball.” It took “Amelia” less than a year to go from a student production by the Curtis Institute of Music (April 1) to the Metropolitan Opera House stage last Thursday night. Mr. Menotti, who still is in his early 20s, wrote “Amelia” while a student at. the Philadelphia music school. He also wrote the libertto,

to English for Thursday’s performance. Mr. Menotti also is doing the book for his radio opera, which is in English and will be called “The Old Maid and the Thief.” In fact, the young composer almost has to be his own librettiest, for his revolutionary system of opera-writing consists of writing story and music simultaneously. The new opera will be unique in another respect, since action in one place never will be longer than five minutes. To indicate these rapid

at the market,” or “Here we are in the street”—only that, no more. “My idea has been to give the opera more movement,” Mr. Menotti announces. “One of the chief defects of modern opera is its failure to be good theater or, in the case of radio opera, good radio. “In the theater you have only a, few sets. Many would necessitate

ble breaks in the continuity, but radio i tree from those limitations. ‘The Maid and the Thief’ also will be more intimate and subtle than a piece written for the opera

stage.” ~~_

Times Special : . - MEXICO CITY, March 8—Radioc in Mexico will be more rigidly supervised by. the Government if the bill that is pending in Congress is passed. It is expected that the measure will be enacted shortly. The bill calls for the establishment of a Federal radio board and provides for strict prohibition of programs of a religious or political nature. Also forbidden is mention of anything which slurs the: Mexican Government and ‘people ‘or those of friendly nations; offends good taste; spoofs national or foreign customs; ridicules races or creeds; harms peace or public order or

Life of J. P. Morgan Sr. on WGN Tonight; Jarrett Visits Al Pearce and His"Gang; Mozart Broadcast

Bergen's Mother Regards -

Charlie Coldly, but Fancies Edgar.

The “Famous Fortunes” , graphical dramatizations reach their second act climax tonight over WGN at 6:45 o'clock when the

life of John Plerpont Morgan is

presented. |

Probably the most prominent of: ;

Theodore Roosevelt's “malefactors of great wealth,” Mr. Morgan was born in Hartford, Conn. in 1837,

a few yedrs before the birth of John

D. Rockefeller. ‘At 19, he started to work in his father’s banking estab« lishment, even then a wealthy house. In 1869 he sprang into prominence through his battle with Jay Gould over the Albany and Suse Tuchaina Raiload End from that e forward he made transportae tion one of his chief interests.

At his death in 1613, Morgan was reputed to be one of the greatest

figures in the world of finance. The

banking house he so greatly expanded during his lifetime no

longer is merely a national institution. : 2 8 8 i ' Art Jarrett, who appeared in pere son at the Lyric last week, will join Al Pearce and his gang as guest

soloist during ‘their broadcast to-

night at 8 o'clock over CBS-WFBM.

The business at hand is reported to involve the income tax, but Mr. Jarrett has promised to stick to his

singing with “The One I Love” and -

“I Can Dream, Can't I?” The regular cast, including Arlene Harris,

Tizzie Lish and Carl Hoff, also will

be on hand. f J tJ Norman Siegel, Radio Editor, has been out to Hollywood and one of his most ime

portant interviews was with an :

elderly lady whose name is Mrs. Nellie’ Bergren. Scratch one “r” out of that name and joull know who she is. Charlie McCarthy, “Young Hicke ory” of radio, is having as much trouble with his grandmother as he did with W. C. Fields. She's fond of him in an impersonal way

—too impersonal ever to make a

spoiled grandchild out of him. And it's Edgar who's cutting

Charlie out with grandma, for Nel- |

lie Bergren, 71-year-old mother of the noted ventriloquist, would rather talk about her son than his little vocal offspring. Although she has been living with them since the first of the year, she still doesn’t regard . Charlie as a real person. That's because ~ she usually sees him in pieces around the house. It seems that there’s a part of Charlie in every room in the Bergen mansion. : Mrs. Bergren speaks of her famous son as “baby.” Edgar calls her “ma” and likes to tease her about

the naive manner in which she .

takes Charlie and his success. ~ Chatting with this quiet, charm-

ing counterpart of the Whistler painting, Mr. Siegel learned that.

Edgar was fond of machinery as a youngster and she thought he would grow up to be an electrician. She was upset when he first went on the stage, because she didn’t think there was a living in what he was doing. Even when he was

making $400 a week in vaudeville, .

she thought he should give it up for a steady job that paid $75 a

week. She’s not quite as sure about °

that now.

- 8 2 ®8 : McKay Morris, distinguished aec-

tor whom you may have seen in English’s early in the season ‘in

‘“Tovarich,” is getting into radio the

“hard way” at his own request. Tomorrow he will join the cast of “Ma Perkins,” the serial heard daily, except Saturdays and Sundays, over WLW at 12:30 p. m. : 2 Mr. Morris, formerly a member of Stuart Walker Players here, has

been prominent in the activities of _

New York’s Theater Guild and, prior to his appearance with EuFae Leontovich.. in. “Tovarich,” ed two seasons with Nazimova in Ibsen revivals. He explains his affiliation with the “Ma - Perkins”

show by stating that he thinks work

with a daytime serial is sa greater test of adaptability to radio than taking the guest appearance route.

He will be heard in the role of

‘Gregor Ivanoff, a Russian. ® ” »

Interesting Radio Remarks—‘ War is not a science, but an art. And

no art is exact or can it:ever be.

War is no compact of the cold, clear ineluctable certainty of mathematics; rather is it a lurid canvas,
