Music
BY JAMES THRASHER

BY JAMES THRASHER
NF great interest to lovers
" of Brahms music should
be a series of four lectures by
Samuel Thewman, the first of
which is to be broadcast at
1870 tomorrow morning,
through NBC-WEAF.
Mr.. Thewman, who styles
himself Brahms Boswell"
was at one time secretary to
the great composer, and later
was stage director of the
Metropolitan Opera Co. He is
to reminisce about the COM
poser as he knew him, and
give examples from his works.
Marion Talley, soprano, re-
membered for her meteoric
rise to fame at the Metropol-
itan 10 years ago, is to begin
series of weekly 15-minute"
broadcasts at $50 tonight, via
NBC- WEAF (WIRE). Her pro-
grams are to include familiar
opera ariaS and favorite light
opera and concert selections.
In 1929, three years after
her Metropolitan debut, Miss
Talley retired to a farm in
her native Kansas. She re-
sumed her concert work two
years ago. Her plumpness
vanished, the 107-pound So
prano is engaged at present in
making a musical screen pro-
duction. Her broadcasts are
to originate in Hollywood.
Brahms &C Minor Sym
phOny" is scheduled for broad
cast by the Cleveland Orches-
ira, DIR. Arthur ROdzinski, con-
ductOr, at 9 tonight over a
NBC-WJZ network. Dmitri
ShostakOvich'S Golden Age"
suite, postponed from the pre-
ceding week, also is to be
played.
Brahms was in no hurry to
do the work, and he is quoted
as having said that it was mo
laughing matter to compose a
symphony after Beethoven"
A sketch of the first move
ment, without an introduction,
was made in 1862 when
Brahms was 20. The work,
however, was not produced un-
til 1876. Its lack Of early sue
cess has been attributed to un-
satisfactory interpretations. e
TIME sixth and last of the
Il New York Philharmonic
Symphony Orchestra's series
for children and young people
is to be broadcast over the
CHS (WFBM network tomor-
row morning at 10.
According to the annual GUS
tom, Ernest Schelling, con-
ductor, has prepared a pro-
gram of numbers chosen by
his youthful audiences. He is
to give an informal address
and award prizes to children
who have turned in the best
notebooks based on the sea-
sons series,

This delay was disconcerting,
finally caused last-minute re-
routing of lines through Cleve-
land, cutting the lag sufficiently
to put Miss Lille at ease.

Miss Lille tonight will broadcast
from Toronto, the city OF her
birth. No doubt to listeners her
part will be co-ordinated with
Walter Woolf King and Lennie
Haytons orchestra in New York

ROOSEVELT AND LANDON
WAX INTO CAMPAIGNING

On next Thursday morning, at
Grand Rapids, Mich. famous for
furniture), Franklin D. Roosevelt
and Aft M. Landon will cross paths.
The Presidents campaign special
will be pulling into the city's rail-
road yards just as Governor Lam
don's will be leaving. Within TWEEN
ty-four hours the citizens of Grand
Rapid will have heard from the can
didates themselves (1) why they
should elect Landon for President
and (2) why they should re-elect
Roosevelt.
Since last Thursday, when the
Presidents special left Washington
and the Landon special steamed out
of Topeka, the campaign has been
carried to the country with ven
geance. Villages, towns and cities of
the West are seeing both candidates
in the flesh; in newspapers and over
the radio the whole nation is follow
ing the show.
Only three weeks remain before
the country will make it's choice.Last
week politics dominated the scene
from Maine to California and from
Michigan to Florida; it could not be
avoided anywhere. In their attacks
on Mr. Roosevelt Republicans tended
to concentrate on three subjects:
relief, extravaganza and alleged
communistic support for the Presi-
dent Democrats countered; they
claimed to have restored prosperity.
Both Mr.. Roosevelt and Mr.. Lam
don have given the country, exclu-
sive of the Pacific Coast, good
chance to see them and hear them
in person. After Nov 8, no matter
which man wins (Mrs. Roosevelt
said last week that it is on the lap
of the gods"), both candidates will
probably want a rest from travel.
