Although born in Sicily, Direc-
tor Sinatra regards Boston as his
home town, received his musical
education there, made appear
ance as a serious musician there
at Symphony Hall when only Is
years old. This performance won
for him the distinction of being
the youngest virtuoso ever to be
asked to appear at this music CEN
ter.
Six years ago he went to New
York. depended upon his musical
ability to support himself while
attending the Damrosch Institute

given his first opportunity to con-
duct an NBC orchestra; since that
time, he has enjoyed featured bill
ing on NBC programs.
These Mary Pickford programs
are said by those in the know" to
be causing CHS officials and spon-
Sors, and Miss Pickford herself, a
good deal of worry. They aren't
clicking. is the consensus of opinion
Parties at Pickfair," broadcast from
the actress California home, pre-
serted a number of people doing
nothing in particular, with back
ground of just ordinary music. But
this is exactly what listeners were
promised-no fanfare, just charm
ing hostess making her Pickfair anc
radio guests pleasantly at ease fol
a few minutes.
Then Mary went to New York fol
q spring shopping tour, headlinec
her program with guest stars. The
same result. Skits we're old. Read
ing of lines indicated lack of re-
hearsal and careful preparation
The hostess is to fly back West to-
day, taking her program with her
and next Tuesday parties at Pick
fair are to be resumed.
In defense of Parties at Pickfail
it may be zaid they live up to adj
vance billing, are pleasantly infor-
NAL, natural. unaffected, Not ever
radios ace comedians could be ex.
pected to be funny every moment
of is or 20 minutes of ordinary con-
versation. We hope Parties at Pick
fair remains on the air long enough
for it's general popularity to be de.
termined. We wouldn't be surprised
If the sponsors find the program
has clicked with those-and we be-
lieve they are many-who are trims
of artif1ciality on their ethereal

ID OSA PONSELLE, pinch
IN hitting for Lily Pons dur
ing the latter's European vaca-
ton, is a restrained and
chastened radio performer on
her latest appearances, obser-
vers state. In former years, the
impetuous diva was the despair
of radio engineers, forever
striding out of microphone
range, or building up climaxes
that nearly blasted the station
right off the air. Now she
bows to studio restraint, though
her pantomime is still as ORA
matte as ever.
Miss Ponselles program to-
night is to include arias by Puc-
cini and Bizet, and will be
broadcast by CHS (WFBM) at 8.
The half hour recital by to-
morrow nights other Metro
pOlitan star, John Charles
ThOmas, is to emphasize Brit
ish music, with the folk songs,
The BOnny Earl OMOray" and
"She Moved Through the Fair"
arranged by Kreisler and
Hughes, respectively; and the
Damrosch setting of Kipling's
Danny Deever" on the list.
"Cortigianni" from Verdi's
"RigolettO"; DER Tom by
Marx; Pearl Curran's Noe
turne" and In the Cleaning"
will complete the program,
broadcast at 8 through NBC-
WIZ (WIRE).
TONIGHT at 7 the famous
Il Paulist Choristers of New
York, directed by Father Finn,
are to begin a new series of
concerts to be broadcast by
NBC-WJZ. The initial pro-
gram is to include compost
tons by Palestrina, Brahms

AUT0|STS RUSH
TAG OFFICE

Some 200 District motorists
braved the cold and stood in line
this morning to be the first to get
their new 1887 license tags.
BY noon about 1000 sets of tags
had been passed over the counter,
Traffic Director William A. Van
Duzer estimated.
About $4,000 sets of tags have
already been sent out through
the mail. he said, leaving about
115,000 sets to be distributed in
the next five weeks.
While the new plates may not
be placed on cars before December
Is, Mr.. Van Duzer urged all
motorists to come and get their
tags as soon as possible to avoid
the last minute rush, which usually
results in a number of motorists
being penalized for failure to
have the new licenses in the pre-
Scribed time.
The Washington times., 1936-11-30

Chivalry must take a back seat
in the rules and regulations of the
United States Congress.
Even the chivalrouS cavaliers
from the "Solid South" are re-
minded that in Congress, the rule
of seniority takes priority over
gallantry.
Take the case of Mrs. Mamie
Wood Honeyman, Democratic
Representative-elect from oregon,
a personal friend of the Roose-
velts, who will soon be coming to
washington for her first term in
Congress.
BY the rules of Congress, how
ever, she need not expect any
chivalrous conduct from her new
colleagues.
Mrs. Honeyman has already
filed for an office when she be-
gins taking root in the United
States Capitol as of January S,
the opening date Of Congress. But
neither she nor anybody else will
know until just before the open
ing where her new office will be
located.
And the reason for that is the
very unchivalrous rule which
says that if an older member of
Congress wants the office she has
asked for, or the one assigned to
her, she will have to give up all
hopes for it.

Count your money, pleaSe!"
I obeyed while the matron took
my shabby purse, ran inveStigat-
ing fingers over the lining, lifted
out powder box, lip-stick and
comb and shook a handkerchief
as if she expected to find at least
razor.
Two wide-eyed youngsters wear

gowns eyed me curiously. One
whispered:
"What's she here for"
The matron jerked her head in
their direction:
"YOu girls can go to bed now"
A few minutes later I heard an
iron door at the head of the
cement steps clang shut and key
turn.
':Now your hat and coat,
please"
Feeling a bit depressed over this
unexpected attention, I watched
her put them away and lock the
door. She seemed to be constantly
locking and unlocking doors.
We were alone. Lowering her
voice the matron, whose name I
learned was Mrs. CoWan, said:

Now don't get excited, folks,
that's only one mans opinion!
Your Uncle Sam will never get

Frenchmen decide they're wrong.
What probably happened is
that the French deputy realized
that unless France pays at least
part of her debt, in future wars
she couldn't expect the United
States to support them in the
luxury to which they're accuS-
toned.
When you take into cOnSidera-
tiOn that France is now almost
entirely surrounded by enemies,
this gesture reminds me of the
guy facing probable death, and
suddenly remembering that his
insurance policy has lapsed.
P. S.: Sometimes think it's
a shame that Napoleon isn't
alive to handle the French war
debt. At least, when he made
a gesture, he stuck his hand in
his pocket.
