In Re: Our Orchestra
TOMORROW NIGHT and Sunday afternoon, our syinphony orchestra opens its sixth season as a major municipal orchestra under
the direction of Fabien Sevitzky.
It is the custom of music reviewers to write a piece for the orchestra just before the season opens. The theory is that an orchestra is one of these civic virtues which is right, and hence should be sup-
ported, like a clean-up campaign, law and order, the family or the sanctity of the home. Well, this year I don’t feel like following custom. Any appeal for public support in behalf of such an organization which is based simply on the premise that it is something we ought to support is a very large pain in the neck. Not only for those who read it, but for we who write it. No, the Indianapolis symphony orchestra isn’t a beneficiary of the community fund. It isn’t something that I, personally, have to support or feel that I “ought” to support or that you do. But it is something in the life of Indianapolis that I want. That I think nearly everyone who knows it wants.

The Provincial Pipe
I THINK I am what may be called an average symphony-goer. Before it became part of my job, I used to go just once in a while. I honesty feel I always got my money's worth, just sitting there enjoying it. The way I felt about, well, it was something the town afforded that made the town a better place to live in. I know there are people in town who claim to be music lovers on a high plane. So high, that they feel that Mr. Sevitzky and his boys blow a provincial pipe. To these people, anything Indianapolis would have in the way
of an orchestra couldn’t be worth $1.65 to $3.50 downstairs and from $1.10 to $2.20 in the balcony. What did we think we were? Cleveland? Minneapolis? Philadelphia? New York? So these music lovers on a high plane didn’t go to concerts. Not worth it, they said. I don’t think these people know their town or their orchestra very well. I don’t think they know their conductor, either. The Indianapolis symphony orchestra is one of the best sympihonic organizations in the country. It is so recognized by the nation’s leading musicians. It is the youngest major orchestra, that’s true. But its youth has made it alive, vigorous and original. It has given it fire. Few orchestras have its vigor.

And the Maestro
FOR THE LAST five years, our orchestra has grown faster than any other symphony orchestra has ever developed in this country. In a great measure, the man responsible for its growth is Fabien Sevitzky, the conductor. He is a young man, as conductors go. Perhaps he is not so famous as his older colleagues in the East. "Not yet. But among the younger group of conductors in America, none is better known, none is more highly respected in

his own field, none has more prestige. None has ever approached the accomplishments of Sevitzky in taking a small, co-operative, Middle Western orchestra and bringing it into the major leagues of American symphonies, None. He is foremost in the ranks of the new generation of American symphonic conductors who one day will dominate the great music of our land as Toscanini, Stokowski, Koussevitzky do today. He has ideas, Sevitzky has. In our generation, he is one of the leading exponents of American music. Did you know that? He has done more to advance it than almost any other American conductor. vo zx BB =
Listen to It THE OTHER DAY, I dropped
"in to hear the orchestra rehearse
on the stage of the Murat theater. It was dark, chilly and awfully empty there among the silent rows of seats. Sevitzky, in a wrinkled, white shirt, open at the neck, was leaning rover: toward the cellos, ex-
plaining something. Suddenly he straightened up, raised his arms and cut the air with his baton. The first violins dug their bows into their strings on the first chord. The second violins, violas, cellos and some woodwinds came in. They were playing a section of the fourth symphony of Brahms. I could hear Sevitzky singing the score. He was flat. That's how I could hear him. At first I thought I imagined it, but then it came to me that the orchestra was playing with a new snap, not just precision, but something more. The boys were working. It seemed as if they and the conductor meshed into a single instrument to create that first movement. It was wonderful. I was getting a private concert from 91 players. Then, suddenly the spell was broken, Sevitzky had lowered his baton. “Go back to 10,” he said. They went back to 10. 2 nn MY FEELING in this whole matter of the symphony is that this town has something. We have an orchestra as good as any. The Indianapolis symphony orchestra is well-known in the East where it has toured extensively. Just one more thing. Some peo=ple still think that an orchestra is a luxury in wartime. Last night, I learned that 500 soldiers have applied for tickets through the U. S. O. and Ft. Harrison. I think we've got something not only worth supporting. Worth fighting for, too.

On Keith Bill
Senator Murphy to Report on State of Nation.
A GENT who calls himself Senator Murphy heads the bill at Keith's this week, with a line of chatter reporting the state of the nation, and in due course, the state of Senator Murphy. He is of the old school of single gag men and he manages to keep his audience going with his monolog, which is quite a trick. Ken Harvey, the banjo man, acts as master-of-ceremonies. Coco and Teddy are a couple of acrobats. On the dance-acrobatic side are the Bertay Sisters. Dave Seed and Lillian White manage some comedy. The Great Cretonas of circus fame perform stunts atop a bicycle and each other on the slack wire. On the screen, is “Top Sergeant,” with Leo Carrillo and Andy Devine.
” ” 2 NEXT WEEK, Keith's presents for the first time in Indianapolis the new, Russian documentary picture, “Moscow Strikes Back.” It is a full-length feature of the Russian
front, said to be the best yet.
Edward, G. Robinson does the
narration - from the commentary written by Albert Maltz: The scenes,
some of which are downright fright. ful, were filmed by more than: 100 Russian cameramen and no punches are pulled—By R. L.

16 AXIS SHIPS SUNK
LONDON, Nov. 6 (U,P.).—British submarines have sunk six more
enemy vessels and damaged two large axis supply ships in the
Mediterranean, the admiralty an-
nounced today. One submarine intercepted two
enemy coastal vessels laden with food, the admiralty said, and after
the crews abandoned the ships British sailors boarded and . destroyed them.
“Another submarine attacked a medium-sized enemy supply ship escorted by two destroyers,” the admiralty added. “The supply ship was torpedoed and sunk. The same submarine also sank two small enemy supply ships and a tugboat.” A third submarine sent a torpedo into a large supply ship which had
been beached and which was being
salvaged.
