ACTRESS AIDS

olga Nethersole, famed actress
who left the stage twelve years ago
to enter upon the merciful task of
nursing BritaIn's wounded in the
World War and who since has be-
come more widely known in Eng
land and Europe for her tuber.
culosis work than for her histrionic
capabilities, is in Washington this
week to attend the convention OF
the National Tuberculosis Associa-
ton now being held at the May.
flower.
Miss Nethersole has come to the
meeting, not as scientist, but as
a private citizen who has probably
contributed more than any other
layman toward the eradication of
phthisis.
She first became interested In the
fight against tuberculosis a gen.
GRAFTON ago. When the war began
she found place as a surgical
nurse in a London hospital and
shortly after the armistice, was
decorated with the royal red cross
for her work with the army.
In 1917 she founded the People s
League of Health of Great Britain.
This organization has for its
primary aim the education of the
public in matters of health and
hygiene and the eradication of
preventable diseases. 1t has men,
bers in many countries and its rolls
Include some of the most dis
tinguished personalities in Eng
land.
While in Washington the actress
plans to confer with leading medical
men from various parts OF the
world with a view toward estab-
fishing an International People $
League of Health along the lines
of her British League. She also
will take with her to London notes
on what American and European
physicians and scientists have ac-
complished in the last year in their
campaign against tuberculosis.
At IS Miss Nethers&e is still
strong and energetic, seemingly
have lost none OF her former acting
or voice power. Whether she will
return to the stage later, she
would not say. Westinghouse OF
a decade or two ago, however. will
readily recall her stirring work in
such outstanding dramatic pieces
as "Sappho," Camille" and Romeo
and Juliet"

PRESIDENT WILL
Be AIR STAR

President Calvin Coolidge is the
headliner Of the loud speaker pro.
gram for this evening for about
one-fourth of the population OF
these well known United States.
The President participates in the
opening session of the annual
meeting of the American Red Cross.
WRC will pick up the proceedings
from the Red Cross Building and
broadcast it to its Washington con-
stituents. and send it also by wire
to New York where WEAF will
distribute it to the North AMI
Middle West through its chain of
stations. The Red Cross program
begins at 7:30 o'clock.
Another headliner for the evening
is Frances White, the musical
comedy and vaudeville star. who is
playing an engagement this week
at the Palace Theater. When
Frances White first flashed into
prominence from the little town in
Texas that gave her birth--was it
Texas?-the public realized they
were seeing about as individual a
performance as ever used foot.
lights to set 1t off. She is still Just
as individual-just as truly and as
distinctly Frances White as she
ever was-according to my best in
formants. Therefore, she ought to
be worth tuning at il this evening
when WRC will present her.

Meyer Davis musical octopus will

this evening after an absence of

the best the loud speakers provided
for evening entertainment when it
decided to keep its ,rythms for ball
room consumption last spring. 1t
returns to the air this evening at
10 o'clock.
The WRC program opens with
the Mayflowef Orchestra at Z
o'clock and then comes the Red
Cross meeting with President Cool
idge. The chain grocery subsidy
from WEAF will fill the next hour
and will be succeeded by AL Kaman
and his jazz hounds.
THREE WAYS TO
TUNE GRAND OPERA
Those radiotics who crave opera
from WEAF will hear Carmen"
this evening II they can tune the
parent station. Failing In that
and sometimes it is rather close to
the WRC broadcast on the dials-
WILT offers the next best place on
the 395 meter wave length.
For large receiving sets with
plenty of power, KSD, st. Louis,
will give the opera in fine style on
the 545-meter wave length-being
way out there on the end of the
broadcast band almost alone and
with practically no interference.
Atlanta will put opera excerpts
on the air at 9 o'clock with SYM
phony orchestra for those who care
to go after distance at that time
of the evening.

STARS APPEAR
BY THE WHOLESALE

In serving its customers stars
and star features by the wholesale
WRC set a brand new standard for
radio entertainment last night,
Anna Case, Albert Spalding. Efrem
Zimbalist, the Fiske Jubilee Singers,
the Victor Salon Orchestra-each
of which could headline a program
without the slightest difficulty and
any one of which would have been
quite enough-alI trooped into the
living rooms of the nation during
the course of two hours of the best
music we've had since early in the
season
In the radio world series be-
tween manufacturing concerns to
obtain the finest stars to advertise
their wares, the coffee subsidy
which held forth at WIZ and its
chain of stations won the first
battle by one corking orchestra
and group of the finest harmon
lists the world can hear-the Fiske
Jubilee Singers. And with all this
said-Albert Spalding, who with
Anna Case, provided the lineup at
WEAF for A. Atwater Kent and
his auto accessory and radio set
factory, was the individual star of
the evening.

SCHILDKRET AND
HIS ORCHESTRA


Nathaniel Schilkret and his Vic
tor Salon Orchestra masquerade
before the microphone as the Max
well Ensemble-gave listeners an
idea of what a real radio orchestra
can do under an able and intelli-
gent director-even with the hack
neyed civilian Tell Overture. II
program managers and artists
would study photograph records a
bit, for technique and 3editing of
music, they would learn lot.
Schildkret is a master maker or
monograph records-and a master
musician as well.
Spalding, as stated. was the par
ticilar star of the evening-the
big star-the most respondent Of
them all. His violin sang right to
the hearts of his vast audience IN
every number he played, his first
solo, the Mendelssohn andante,
being presented with finish and a
thrill seldom heard.
Miss Case had bit of trouble at
the beginning of her program in
getting her voice properly placed
for the microphone, but she gave
an exhibition Of singing that was
staying with-although she really
sang, If you get what I mean. very
few Of her songs as she can sing
them. A bit mike-shy. possibly.
This leaves the Jubilee Singers
and Zimbalist-and the Jubilee
Singers are in a class all by them
selves. Their way Of singing the
old negro spirituals is simple, with
out vocal convolutions. but tells the
whole story OF them. Zimbalist was
his expert self and made his violin
perform as nobody but Zlmbaiist
can do it. He. like Miss Case, was
performing with a new medium
however, and he showed caution,
not alone in his playing. but in
his selection Of program, his
pieces being expert fiddling rather
than thrilling music.
POLITICAL SEASON
OPENS IN RADIO
The political season opened radio
tlcally Saturday evening from WRC
with a bang-and a man and
woman on the microphone end.
Both pointed with considerable
pride and viewed with gloomy
alarm, as Of yore. The Navy Band
performed its task better than it
has for any of the concerts 1t has
given this new season-particularl
the List Hungarian Rhapsody.
Tho Record Boys gave much OF
themselves and the Saturday night

best to make the evening pleasant.
