If you want to hear modern music
presented in its best modern style don't
overlook Fred Waring and his Pennsyl-
vanians this week at the Earle. Mr.
Waring can get twice as much out of a
tune as most other maestros. He can

utes to 3, and, although the final dis
sonances are not as great nor as fright
ening as DR.. Kinder and q larger or
chestra can achieve, they are sufficient

and show you what they can do. Chief
among them this year is that young man
who makes his feet slide from the top
of those three steps down to the bottom.
With the proper Davis tutelage you are
likely to hear more of him in the future
