Concerning
aSymph0ny
BY WALTER d. HICKMAN.

DR. SERGE KOUSSEVITzKY
- and his Boston symphony
orchestra will be remembered in
concert last night for the playing of
two nocturnes by DebusSy and or
chestral excerpts from Ravel's mod
ern ballett, "DaphniS ct Chloe"
Koussevitzky and his men seem
to revel in the lighter moments. 1t
seems one gets nearer the soul Of
certain composers when in more
quiet mood.
And SO with the members of this
orchestra, they seem to weave a
beautiful and melodious fabric in
the charming and sweet nocturne,
"Nuages," and were equally nlarve-
Ious in the rather more robust noe
turnem "Fetes," by Debussy.
Ravel may be just noise to some
people, but the ballet played last
night had life, color and even
charm. There were modern musical
crashes and all that but it was so
intelligently played by the orches-
ira that it was not a freak or just
a novelty.
The symphony last night for the
Boston Symphony was Symphony

and syncopation and that demand
being supplied by an army Of must
clans who have practically sprung
up overnight and grouped them
selves into bands and orchestras OF
all sizes, the natural question arises
as to whether or not this orchestra
and band business is strictly for men
or not.
What about the girl? Can they
compete with the man? Can an all
girl band attain foremost rank with
such masters as Paul Whiteman,
Vincent Lopez, Waring, George Oh
sen, Ben Bernie, Ted Lewis, etc?
The answer is simple. Many have
tried and failed with one exception

It is said that this dramatic quail

leading stars Of the stage show.
And DR.. Paul Fejos, the Hungar-

With a piece Of property as valu-
able as Broadway, great care had to
be exercised in the selection Of

the type characterizations in play

solely upon outstanding character
types.
It was for this reason that Uni

in the screen offering the same roles
that they made famous upon the
stage. Jackson plays the detective
role and Porcasi that Of the night
club owner. Both of these, by the
way, turned out to be finds" for
the nice requirements of talking

AS a picture Broadway" is given
a locale of a ritzy night club with a
chorus of a hundred beautiful girls

A tremendous set was built for
this purpose and DR.. Fejos was al

for unique camera angles and
futuristic backgrounds.
This is said to be one of the most
expensive sets ever composed for a
picture. Most of the action in the
night club is shown in brilliant
technicolor and it is here also that
the several musical numbers of the
piece are offered. A $4,000 camera
crane was used on this set for the
the first time.

The latter's condition was considered
critical
Neighbors said Cataldi came home
intoxicated and started shooting at his
wife with an old rife. She fled and
the police we're called.
Vierra and La Cunha answered the
call. and when they started for the front
door Cataldi opened fire. Vierra fell
mortally wounded and La Cunha was
shot down as he reached for his gun.
Frantic calls for police aid were sent
in by terrified neighbors and reserves
from Oakland and Hayward rushed to
the scene. Cataldi in the NEE ntime had
barricaded himself in the house with a
small arsenal of rifles and revolvers.
He held the answering officers at bay
with steady stream of bullets.
Tear bombs we're tossed through the
windows, and after two hourS Cataldi
emerged from a back door, muttering
tncoherently. He was slightly wounded.
