ORCH 7 RA
FUND DRIVE
NEARS END

Heartened by last weeks sue
cess, the National Symphony
Orchestra Association today en-
tered the main phase Of its ten-day
campaign to raise a 100000 "sus-
tanning fund" to continue the
symphony concerts next season
on a parity with the current
schedule and reenact the highly
popular Water Gap series this
summer.
Business, social and civic organ
izationS, not only in the District
Of Columbia proper but the entire
metropolitan area, have indorSed
the campaign with substantial con-
tributionS and individual music
lovers have been generous, the
association reported. 1t is expected
that before the campaign closes
March Is, the 100000 objective
will have been reached.
Through the cooperation OF To-
cal broadcasting stations, the vast
radio audience of Washington will
be acquainted with the drive in
a series of broadcaSts which will
get under way tonight.
To a greater degree than other
symphony groups, the National

here.

section, is Charles Cook, who has
made his home here since he
came to the Capital from James

The joint recital of Grace Moore,
soprano, and Marcel Hubert, vio-
loncellist, was received with the
highest enthusiasm by the audi
ence which was so large that some
stood on the platform yesterday
afternoon at Constitution Hall.
Miss Moore and Mr.. Hubert were
called again and again to the
platform to receive the homage of
the auditors. responding with a
number of encoreS.
Mr.. Hubert, although compare.
lively unknown. soon won his way
into the hearts of the audience
that had come to hear Miss Moore,
and displayed facile ability in
getting over the fingerboard. The
quality of his tone might be i'm
proved upon. Despite his artistic
ability, many remarks approaching
disgust on the part of the audience
were heard because they had come
in the expectation of hearing Miss
Moore in a full-length recital,
whereas Mr.. Hubert occupied so
minutes time on the program and
Miss Moore sang SIS minutes, not
counting out time for bows. en-
frances and exits.
If Mr.. Hubert had played a short
selection between the vocal groups
in the first and second parts of the
program, in order that Miss Moore
might rest her voice, no one would
have objected; but when an instru-
mentaliSt uses 25 minutes at the
beginning of each part of the pro-
gram of a vocal recital, then it is
oStensibly a joint recital, and
should have been advertised as
such.
Miss Moore seemed in perfect
health and sang without visible ef-
fort, so that there seemed no ex-
cuSe for this encroachment upon
the time she should have given the
audience. Lily Pons, who appeared
here recently with a violiniSt, may
have had more cause for sharing
her time because of her physical
condition.
Just how long the music public
will stand for this sort of thing is
problematic. The least such pop
ular singers could do in justice to
the audience, would be to share
time with an instrumentaliSt
equally as well-known, such as
Kreisler. Elman, zimbaist, or
Menuhin.
Miss Moore's voice is as CLAM
orouS as her stage personality.
She was handicapped somewhat
in her choice Of songs, several of
which in the first group were
not especially melodic. However,
louvre ton Coeur" (Bizet) and
"Seguidilla" (de Falla), were eS-
pecially tuneful and were greeted
with special appreciation by the
audience.
Among the several encores at
the end of the recital, Miss Moore
gave a new lyric setting for the
famous Kreisler "Old Refrain"
that will be used in her next
movie. Not being permitted to in
terview her pianist, we cannot
enumerated the encoreS as is our
custom.

Novelty in entertainment often
succeeds in condimenting night
clubbers' appetites for cabaret pro-
grams to the extent that men will
rave on for days about the "little
titian-haired beauty with the sunny
personality" and the women will
go foggy over a lanky tap dancer
with black-bottom leg itch. Local
hotcha seekers are no more i'm
mune from this bug than any
others. So listen intently while we
narrate on a novelty entertainer
that ought to produce conversation
for long hours after after focusing
the glimmers on her glamorouS
parsonage.

lar Legs" has been a legend of
many a press agents fervid pen,
and has Skyrocketed many young

glimpse at Miss Vanessi, featured

CORN FUTURES
FEATURE RISE
VOTE AMERICAN

CHICAGO, Aug. 10 G.NSD.
Another smashing upturn in corn
futures today brought heavy buy
ing into other pits and prices of
all grains scared to new peaks
for the bull movement on the
Board of Trade. September corn
was bid up SEC to $1.19 a bushel,
the highest level in eight years.
Wheat rocketed &c to the high
est level since 1893, with Septem.
Der at Sl.15A. December reached
$1.14A.
There was nothing in the sta,
tistical news to cause the sudden
rush of buying and traders were
inclined to attribute the demand
to the sensational upturn in corn
prices here. September has gained
more than II cents a buShel fol-
the last three days.
Near mid-session corn was 2 to
27sc up, wheat ~ to 17sc up,
oats to 11sc up, and rye ~ to
