WCAP presented last night a
hodge-podge of short recitals which
developed into an entertaining eve.
ming. The only feature lasting
more than half an hour was the
Wardman Park Hotel dance music.
All Of the recitals were up to the
good musical standard naintaine
by WCAP. 1t is a rare occasion
when poor music gets onto the air
via that station.
One. Of the best recitalg was Of
fered by Miss Gertrude Kreiselman,
the talented young pianist from, the
Franklin Square Hotel Coffee
Shoppe, who never fails to give an
entertaining program whenever she
appears.
We are glad Let 1t Rain" was
requested because that number was
one Of the best OF. her selections.
We are glad to have Miss Kreisel-
man hack on the air with more
regularity again.
Another delightful event was the
recital by the Columbia Trio which
opened the evenings entertainment.
The trio is composed of Rend
Greenburg, violinist; Miriam Lark
| ing, cellist, and Kathryn Crowley,
pianist and director.
Roxy's musical offering tomorrow
night will be "Roxy's Gang in
Vienna" The program will be an
authentic compilation Of music
typical of student life in Vienna be-
fore the war.
It has been collected from unpub-
llished manuscript music, the lyrics
being translated by Frank Moulan
and Lieutenant Gitz-Rice, and the
music was arranged by Doctor
Billy Axt.
We listened to one act Of Honor
Bright" the dramatic offering OF
the WGY Players last night. 1t
was very entertaining except for
the bursts of static which finally
drove us away.
II there is any one thing that
riIes US more than any other In
the present status of radio affairs,
| locally speaking, it is the fact that
we never get any rebroadcastS OF
the. WGY plays. In spite OF the
fact that it takes all of WRC'S bt st
offerings, the WGY management in
sists upon keeping its prize on an
evening when WRC is not on the
| air.
We are in favor of a boycott
until the Schnectady management
wakes up. Why not refuse to give
them our best until they re-arranGe
the date for the plays and operas
We received recently, a neat little
gift from one of our readers, Gar
land Robey, 217 Eighth stret south
east. The gift was a clever crystal
receiving set put up in little box
| about the size Of a safety razor
| box.
We expect to make good use OF
the little set during our vacation
this summer, il that time ever
comes.
