Monkey Chews Nose
Of College Actress

MADISON, Wis, Nal 8. - Inject
ing too much realism into ''ro'
nance" may cost the Wisconsin
players their leading woman in the
production.
When Oscar, a monkey mascot Of
Phi Kappa Sigma fraternity, was
offered to the players in place Of
the dummy ape needed in the cast,
he became too serious and too
realistic in his character portrayal.
The result was that Helen Ann
Hughes, Lima, Ohio, the leading
woman, was chewed extensively
about the nose, chin and hands,
and Rascom Hall was in an uprOar.

HEART DISEASE
!. LAID TO LACK
Of REST .

BY international News Service

LONDON, May S.-The ire
mendous pace Of modern life is
largely responsible for the great
increase in heart disease in the
opinion OF DIR. +. Strickland
.Goodall, a prominent English heart
specialist.
Lecturing before the Institute
Of Hygiene here, DR.. Goodall
pointed out that whereas the death
rate from cancer has only in
creased twenty-five per cent during
the past few years, the mortality
from heart disease has increased
400 per cent and maintained that
mental and emotional strain of
modern life is responsible.
The whole of modern life" he
said, "curs up rest and tends to
increase emotion, and emotion in
creases intra-vascular strain. ]
cannot help thinking it is very
largely due to all this that there
is this tremendous increase of

VOICE USED AS
ORCHESTRAL
INSTRUMENT.

Patience has become standard
equipment for radio regulars who
would tune through such tempests
of static, code, fading and other
forms OF interference manifested
on the wave lengths last evening.
With patience. however, broad
casts in the Midwest were posi-.
BILE of location i'm the receiving
set so they could be recognized
and IL equipped with power
enough, brought clearly to loud
speakers.
The Roxy arrangers of music
registered the high point in loud
speaker entries again last evening
with a combination Of vocal, organ,
chimes, artillery and orchestra ef-
fects in the production of Tschaik-
owsky's "1S12" overture. The Roxy
musical complex appears to be
vocal these days, and with excellent
material with which to work the
impressario's musical architects
have been building some rather
interesting symphonic structures
with the human voice where instru-
ments are ordinarily heard.
In the great Tschaikowsky effort
the opening theme and some OF the
climactic material are derived from
church and folk music. Last even
ing the Roxy presentation of these
particular themes was by a chorus
and the effect was striking. Mus
ical fundamentalists may decry the
utilization Of other than regular
mechanical musical instruments in
the production Of masterpieces, but
the Roxy method appears to get
the effects we are led to believe the
composer had in mind directly, and
consequently more clearly, than
instrumental synthesis could pro.

NEW CONTRALTO
SINGS TO QUEBEC

Another pleasing feature of the
evening entertainment was the I'M
PRODUCTION OF Leslie F'rick. contralto,
as guest artist in the A. and p.
Gypsy program dedicated to the
people of the Province of Quebec,
Can. Miss Frick Is comparatively
newcomer to the microphone who
has a. most pleasing voice and an
intelligence in singing that will
carry her q long way. She will be
heard again, we understand, In the
Home Companion Hour, OF which
she is the leading female figure.
The Schubert Centennial exercises
Of the General Motors program was
a brave effort to wholesale Schu-
bert productions at the expense OF
the music that is in all Of them.
The mistake of many of our pro-
| ducers is in trying to initiate monu-
mental genius-like Schubert's. The
composer died a young man. leaving
more than thousand compositions
and possibly for that reason the
General Motors impressarioS en-
deavored to crowd as many OF them
as possible into an hour. Only a
Schubert can do that-and get full
value for every tone. General
Motors most certainly didn't last
evening. despite the efforts Of Nan
cite Guilford. Metropolitan soprano,
and Lewis James, tenor, the guest
artists.
An interesting question was
brought to the minds of listeners
of WGN last evening when the adj
vertised "Sam n Henry" program
was presented. Sam n Henry"
were two very entertaining indi-
viduals of the WGN output for
several years. Then Charlie Cor
ren and Friedman Gosden, who wore
| the names before the microphone,
quit their jobs. The WGN impress
sarios evidently figured it was the
names that were important and last
evening revived them with other
persons than the originals wearing
them. We're wondering just how
far along the road to listener popu-
larity that sort Of thing will carry
the broadcasters. In the creative
| arts it Is the individual behind the
product and not its label that
counts--particularl with such in
dividual productions as the Sam
| m Henry affairs.
