GIRLS TO HAVE
BASEBALL NOW

Because of the abundance OF
baseball equipment the girls p. E.
classes will be taught how to play
baseball.
We fear that the boys baseball
team will have serious competition
and that we may have a few girls on
the team this season.
Besides baseball the girls are
eager for warm weather SO that
they can learn how to swim in the
irrigation canal.

The sophomores perhaps entertain
the same ideas and so do the jun

of different things. When school
ends for them this year, they know
that they will be through.

ticipation on the part Of music
lovers.
After spending all his spare
time for two years in Charleston
visiting Catfish Row and other
Negro sections. George Garshwin
has given his impressions Of
what he saw in the opera "Porgy
and BeSs," although not adher-
ing strictly to the native musical
themes.
Many elements go into the
making Of a successful theatrical
production of such magnitude as
"Porgy and BesS." One of the
most important is the conductor,
and in Alexander Steirnet, under
whose baton the Gershwin opera
will be introduced to Washington.
the Theatre Guild has a brilliant
young musician and composer.

in Boston, Mass. He attended Har-
ward and was graduated magma

after graduation, and 1923 found
him in Paris where, over a period
of several years, he studied with
such eminent teachers as d'Indy,
Koechlin, and Gadalge.
Returning to this country in
1925. Steinert played the piano
solo in Scriabine'S "PrometheuS"
with the Boston Symphony Orches
ira under KouSSevitZky in Boston,
New York and Brooklyn. In 1926
he branched out as a composer,
and his symphonic poem. South
ern Nights" was performed by the
Boston Symphony Orchestra. and
later by the Rochester Philhar-
monic Orchestra. In 1927 Mr..
Steinert won the American Priz de
Rome, and it was during his resi-
dence Of three years in the Italian
capital that his "Leggenda Sin
fonia" was first performed in
Rome and later in America.
Mr.. Steinert'S first experience
conducting was with the Russian
Opera Company at the Casino The
ater, New York, in 1934-35. In
July. 1885. he began the task of
teaching the principals their roles
in "Porgy and BesS."
The theme OF the first move
ment of the "Afro-American
Symphony" by the American
composer, william Grant Still,

rhythm is introduced by the

elaboration on this theme and

Norma Shearer, Of the fragile looks
but iron constitution-solves the
problem with a daily dozen on her
bed room floor every morning-even
when the call is for a 8 o'clock studio
appearance. A cold shower and
brisk rundown with hard towel fol-
low. On non-working days. the act
ress swims in the pool of her Santa
Monica home. and sprints leisurely
along the beach with her dogs. Diet
ing occupies no place in her health
program. Eat what you want-but
not too much of it" is the unwritten
slogan hanging in the Shearer-Thal-
berg dining room.
Husky Victor McLaglen keeps fit by
horseback riding and road work. He
rides two hours every day, getting up
at the crack of dawn if he has an
early working call. Between pictures
he makes the roads a better place to
walk on in hilly La Crescenta-and at
the same time develops disease re-
sistance.
The health skeletons in the closet
OF busy Dick Powell include rowing
machine, a sun-bath tent and SWIM
ming pool. He is now installing a
bowling alley. In addition, the song
ster of the radio and screen mOws
the grass on his lawn. digs in his
gardens and plays badminton.
Joan Crawford regards sun and air
as q screen actress's best friend-neXt
to her check book When not work
ing she is usually to be found in her
own back yard improving her mind
with book and her body with sun
tan. Joan is one of the lucky ones
who does not have to diet TO keep
slender, but she feels better when she
eats light food for luncheon.
Warner Baxter keeps healthy
wealthy and wise with frequent sets
of tennis. at which he and his usual
partner, Ronald Colman. are consid-
cred very adept. Both boys are not
particularly careful of what they eat,
believing that exercise alone solves
mans problem of keeping fit.
Greta Garbo is another Hollywood
ite who finds the bluebird of health
via the tennis court. The large
footed Swede hits a hard ball across
the net. Her next favorite health
conditioner is walking.
Jeanette Macdonald prefers her
health training out of doors and i'll
