Sang Sentimental Songs in . Muddy Foxhole

: NEW YORK, March 8 (U. P)— ‘Carole Landis, motion picture pctress who spent five months entertaining Americans at the front, recalled today that a soldier grabbed her — “caveman style” — when a North African alert sounded and dived with her into a crowded foxhole. There, she said, she donned a . helmet and spent the hour and a half of the alert singing old, senti- ~ mental songs to the erouching troops. “It was very muddy, very cold, very crowded,” she said, adding she had found that the Americans in North Africa “love sentimental . songs.” She had singing for a soldier audien airfield | alert

They Won't Sign NEW YORK, March 8 (U. P)~—

|| Members of the New York Philhar-{ {monic Symphony orchestra have}

answered their board of direc- | tors’ refusal to) reinstate 14 discharged members by voting unani-

I mously ‘not to sign new contracts|

‘lunless the discharged men are giv{en back their jobs.

mittee entered a new plea with the board last week for reinstatment of the musicians. Dr. Artur Rodz-

- linski, who has been engaged as the

conductor for next season, had suggested that they be fired. The com‘|mittee asked the board to exercise its powers of review and overrule him.

Marshall Field, its chairman, regretted the discharges and added: “I don’t feel that I could interfere in any way.”

Denies Reflection

“We will stand on our original proposition that unless the 14 men are reinstated, the members of the orchestra will not sign contracts to play with the orchestra next season,” Caimen Fleisig, chairman of the negotiating . committee, said. Fleisig was one of those fired. The discharged men—the orchestra totals 103 members—had pleaded that being fired reflected on their ability and made it difficult fer them to get other jobs. “A decision by any conductor that an individual does not fit into the ensemble involves no reflection at all on a musician’s ability as an individual member of some other group.” the directors replied. Fleisig said the trouble had already caused a deterioration of per-. formance,

TRAVELING BAND SLEEPS ON STAGE

DAYTON, O., March 8 (U. P.).— Jan Savitt's orchestra added new traveling equipment here today. Unable to get hotel accommodations, all the musicians bought cots and bedding and camped out on the stage of the Colonial theater, where they are plyaing a week's engagement. They will retain the cots to meet similar emergencies on their tour.

Both of the young singers are interchangeable in either part. Everett Marshall, Frank Hornaday, Lorraine Bridges, Harry K. Morton, Detmar Poppen and Ann Pennington have parts similar to those they sang in the “Prince.” As a matter of fact, the difference between “Blossom Time” and the “Prince” is slight as far as character stereotypes are concerned, except for the role of Franz Schubert, which Mr. Marshall takes in’ “Blossom Time.” The cast slips from one operetta to another with ease.

Municipal Orchestra. THE INDIANAPOLIS symphony orchestra is now on the threshold of the third phase of its - éxistence as an Indianapolis insti-

“tution. It started out in 1929 under Ferdinand Schaefer as a semi-

co-operative orchestra. In 1937, it became fully profes-

sional and entered the lists of the major. symphonies of the United

| States, a distinction of which this | city can be proud.

With the passage of . enabling legislation, the orchestra can now become a function of all the citizens of Indianapolis as a munici-

| pally sponsored institution.

The city council and the school board jointly may raise up to $50,000 for the orchestra’s support, in return for which the orchestra plans a series of special concerts for adults and schoolchildren. The effect of municipal support will be to ‘make the orchestra a people’s orchestra in the real sense. The special concerts will retail at 25 cents for adults and 10 cents for children. They will be concerts that will

if some of the ideas the orchestra - people have about soloists are realized, the orchestra’ will have . to hire the coliseum to take care of the crowd.

SEYMOUR'S

ONE SOLUTION, at least, for the stage performer shortage may be found in the manner in which the Shuberts have handled the two Sigmund Romberg musicals, “Blossom Time” and “Student Prince.”

All of the major artists who sang “Student Prince” will be on deck tonight at English’s for “Blossom Time.” However, the audience will ‘ see ‘Agnes Cassidy as Mitzi, the

by and large that must support itself without recourse to municipal grants except in case of an unusual deficit. The regular symphony season must support itself. = Municipal funds should provide the expanded series of popular and school concerts outside of the regular season. ; # » Teachers Stood AN IDEA of what attendance might be expected at the projected people's concerts may be gained by looking at the record of the industrial concerts, the fifth of which was played yesterday before an audience of 2000 public school teachers, librarians and maintenance employees, Each of the five industrial concerts has filled the house’ The Mallory concert was jammed. So was the Railways concert. L. S. Ayres had a full house. RCAVictor had a concert audience of

has played fo in years. The Lukas-Harold Corp., which is sponsoring the: next industrial concert Wednesday, anticipates an audience at least the size of RCA’s, and has arranged for the use of Cadle tabernacle instead: of Murat in order to. seat its people. The teachers were standing’ at yesterday’s school concert which was donated by a member of the orchestra’s women’s committee who prefers to remain anonymous. It was a splendid concert, as all the previous industrial concerts have been. Fabien Sevitzky and the orchestra played the “Scheherazade” by Rimsky-Korsakov as the major work and the “Russlan and Ludmilla” overture by Glinka; the “Largo” from the “New World” symphony by Dvorak; Grieg’s “Peer Gynt” suite No. 2 and “The Stars and Stripes Forever” for a wind-up. It doesn’t seem to be a , question of people wanting to hear symphonic concert music of this kind, but a question of whether the orchestra can provide it at prices folks can afford. Industrial financing this season has enabled the orchestra to reach thousands of people who otherwise might never have ie covered that Indianapolis first-rate symphony orchestra. " Municipal - financing next year would enable tens of thousands to hear the orchestra.

It sounds like a worth-while

duty, one night home ‘guards all night. A fourth night each week he takes an all-night turn as firewatcher at the factory. This leaves Sunday free—for home guard drill and exercises taking up the whole day and often much of the night.

Tap Reservoirs

As each manpower reservoir was successively tapped, the British started doing for themselves what formerly someone did for them. As in America now, Britain’s first civilian manpewer shortage was felt in servants. Now it has reached every phase of ordinary living here. In addition to doing your own houséwork and cooking, you now do your own laundry if you want it back quicker than a month. You no longer expect busses to run late at night. You do your own office filing and run your own errands if you want them done at all. The first step in Britain’s manpower drive was selective service.

Top Is 51 Years

Progressively ages were raised and lowered until now the top is 51 years and the bottom 17 years, 8 months. : The British draft system makes no exemptions for marriage. Dependents are supported by war service’ grants. Industrial deferments are increasingly harder to get. ; By April, 1941, Britain began conscripting women for its armed forces. Originally it was limited to single women between 20 and 30. Last month it was lowered to 19. Only choice given female draftees is joining the women’s land army or vital industrial jobs. 3

Draft for Jobs

Hand in hand with drafting for the forces went drafting for industry. In May, 1940, following Dunkirk, Section 58-A added de[fense regulations empowering the minister of labor to direct anyone to-do any job. e: : To give this section meaning, less than a year later compulsory registration for employment was ordered for men younger than 50 and not already registered for the army and for women between 19 and 45. At the same tinie the government passed the essential work orders bill. With this government departments could recommend that employment in certain vital industries be frozen. Employers couldn’t fire and employees couldn’t quit. Already unionized to a far greater degree than in America, British industry had union-management machinery to iron out inequalities in such freezings. Seven and a half million workers in 54,000 industries are now frozen.
