Norton Takes n Tip.
When Babe Norton was a member
of the South African Davis cup team
in 1919 he was not considered
strong enough player to compete
against the Dutch Davis cup team.
But he was anxious to learn Tilden
was frank with him when they dis
cussed his game, and told him he
would never get anywhere unless ne
changed his service and backhand.
Norton then possessed but one or
two good strokes. Tilden's advice
where internationally, was to get to
work.
Norton took this advice and in a
year from that date was an entirely
different player, although the public,
due to his defeats. was thinking all
the while that he was/finished. Now
Norton has a well rounded game,
and he has SO perfected his back
hand that it is his strongest stroke.
Tennis is peculiar game in that
the beginner or poorly trained player
naturally uses the strokes that come
easiest to him. Few OF them are
properly advised and, in consequence,
but a small proportion succeed. But
those who do desire to amount to
something in the game must keep
everlastingly at the job of bolstering
their weak shots into strong ones
for the one good reason that every
time they meet d skilled and heady
opponent the latter surely will find
their weakness and play to it.
The well rounded game is the de-
sirable one. Lacking it, no man can
go far. regardless of how strong GER
tain of his strokes are. The days
when "a Mclaughlin could get by
with killing services and strong vol
leys and overhead kills are past.
The tennis star of today and the
future has to know how to play well
every stroke of the game If he
does not, he will never figure in ma
tional or international play.

ELABORATES COURSE

An elaborate course in sociology
has been charted for this year by the
knights Of Columbus Evening School
under the direction OF DR.. Frank
O'Hara, dean, it was announced today.
With arrangements ior the course
completed, it was stated, the registra-
tion books for this c.aSS will be held
open for another 10 days.
The course is under direction of DR..
John OGrady. who occupies the chair
of sociology at Catholic University.
Dr.. O'Grady is also director of the
National Catholic Conference, director
of the Catholic Charities and editor of
the Catholic Review.
The trend Of the sociology course.
It was explained, is now closely CO.
related with the science of banking
law and teaching. Social workers and
business men, interested in getting
the greatest good out of philan-
thropy, are said to have indorsed the
course.
Among those who will lecture will
be DR.. John A. Ryan of Catholic Uni
versity, on Economies; DR.. William
j. Kirby, on Elements of Sociology" ;
DR.. Thomas Moore, on "Psychiatry,
and DR.. John NJ. Cooper. on Mar
riage." While the lectures will prob

WRC TO RAD|0CAST
LE PARAD|S MUSIC
Feature to Begin October %.
Special Wire to Cafe Is
Installed.

Beginning October IS. and every
Tuesday night thereafter, WRC will
broadcast direct from the Cafe lie
ParadiS. a concert by the Myer Davis
lie Paradis Band. A special wire has
been installed in the cafe, connecting
with the Radio Corporation of Amer
lea station.
The LIE Parads Band music was
broadcast from the cafe for many
months by WCAP, which later trans
ferred it's weekly dance feature to the
Wardman Park Hotel in favor OF
Irving Boernstein's Orchestra. An in
sistent demand by broadcast listeners
within range of WRC's signals for the
LIE ParadiS music caused WRC to
schedule il as weekly attraction.
1T isn't the age of song that
counts, It's the way YOU curl its hair,
says w. Spencer Tupman, director of
lie Paradis Band. Mr.. Tupman not
only directs the playing of lie ParadiS
Band, but arranges all the special or
Chestrations, which have been one of
the prime factors in establishing the
permanent fame of this prize Meyer
Davis musical organization.
ITS often difficult to decide just
how to handle dance selection, so
that your band will not only get all
the integral harmony and flavor of
the music. but also exhibit their in
dividual style of playing at its best"
said Mr.. Tupman. Bands must have
as definite personalities as persons
if they are to succeed in achieving
, any worthwhile success or impress
their quality upon the music loving
portion of the country. This is espe-
Cially true over the radio, when the
arranger of orchestrations decides
when he will let the oboes twitter,
the saxaphones wall, and the sousa-

the responsibility of delighting or
disgusting several thousand people.
Perfect rhythm and unique SYM
phonic effect are the attainmentS
which should be striven for. Highly
melodiZed Syncopation should never
be sacrificed for the sake of mere
raucous blaring and the cheap musi-
cal tricks, which were considered the
last word in jazz a few years ago. 1t
is my constant effort to introduce au-
dacious and surprising melodic feats
as part of every selection played,
but so artfully that they blend into
the selection directly without any per-
Ceptible Jumps
The soft reed Instrumentation of
LIE Paradis Band lends itself ideally
to radio work rich and soft harmonic
effects being gained without the
brassy. harsh sounds that are invari-
ably more pronounced when broad
cast.
The sousaphone, a substitute for
the string bass, is the only brass in
strument in LIE Paradis Band, and it's
deep tones do not lend themselves to
blaring effects. instead producing
tones of velvet richness.
Mr.. Tupman has arranged a series
of special orcheStrations of new
dance numbers. which will be pre-
sented through WRC for the first
time. These selections embody the
latest ideas in jazz harmony and are
certain to give vaudeville audiences
q new thrill.
