DI MAGG|O NOT
 YET RELEASED, QUINN INSISTS
Boy Still Has Chance to Stick With Bees-JOr-
 dan End Stringer?
By ERNEST BARCELLA United Press Staff Corresponder

 Boston, April 6-(UP)-Back from Florida where he gave his club a thorough once-over, President Bob Quinn of the Boston Bees took time out today to make it clear that:
 l. Vince DiMaggio still has chance to stick with the team, re- ports to the contrary not with standing.
 2. The San Diego club of the Pa cif1c Coast league has not been asked to take DiMaggio back.
 3. Buck Jordan, veteran first baseman who came to terms only 8 week ago after 8 stubborn hold out siege, will have a hard fight to make the team.
 4. The Bees have shown much improvement over the 1936 club.
 Still Around
 1rritated by reports that had Di- Maggie packed for shipment back to San Diego because of weak hit ting, Quinn asserted that final judgment has not been passed on him yet"
 If DiMaggio improves at bat, he still has a chance to play for us. Whether he will stay or not will be decided by Manager Bill McKech- nie. I talked by long, distance tele- phone to Bill the other night and he said nothing about giving up on DiMaggio. In fact, he said the boy picked up in his batting over the week end, getting two doubles and two singles in two games.
 Another thing-we haven't tried to change DiMaggio's batting stance. I don't know what Vince's brother Joe said to him about changing his style. But I do know that neither McKechnie nor I told Vince to try different stances"
 Reports from San Francisco that the San Diego club had been asked to take DiMaggio back were termed ridiculous" by Quinn. We own the player outright. I merely told the San Diego club that if we de- cided we couldn't use DiMaggio, we'd give them the first chance to buy him. It's matter of courtesy" !"
 Jordan Benched
 The white-haired boss of the Bees asserted that Rookie Elbie Fletcher apparently has won the first base job from Jordan. "The boy looks great. I personally think he's an improve ment over Jordan. And I'm not say ing that because of the contract troubles I had with Jordan. Even if I wasn't speaking to a player, he could work for my club as long as he produced
 Quinn revealed that every other major league club had waived on Jordan. T even tried to make a deal for him with four or five clubs but they weren't interested. Yet Jor- dan thinks he's the best first base man in the business. Fletcher will stay at first as long as he plays the way he is now. I don't know what will become of Jordan. That's up to McKechnie."
 | From his own observations, Quinn analysed his 1887 club as follows:
 The pitching staff and outfield are better than last year.
 The catching is the same.
 The infleld Is no worse than last year. Fletcher is better than Jordan was at the initial sack.
 We're improved in general, 1" Quinn said. "The other clubs have improved, too. If they haven't, we ought to better our sixth place standing of last year."

Eugene Ormandy. soon to be guest conductor of the Ford Sum day Evening Hour, is one boy who made good by not working hard. He says so himself. The tow-headed, youthful maestro discovered his own remarkable talent for memor- izing music when, as boy, like most other boys, he tried to get out of working too hard at violin prac- tice. Often he would place good cops and robbers thriller behind his music, then after going over the music once or twice he would find that he was able to play it while reading the illicit book. His parents in an adjoining room didn't catch on for long time. But the fact that Ormandy was able to memor- ize his musical scores so quickly is one of the major reasons for his success. So prodigious is his musical memory now that he invariably con- ducts without musical score after hearing difficult selections only a few times.

For years, under the urging
 of hopeful parents, Ruth Ro-
 maine, the New York City girl
 who sang on Major Bowes' lat
 est Amateur Hour" broadcast,
 studied the piano diligently.
 Despite the family's ambition
 for her to become a concert
 pianist Ruth always wanted to
 sink. Because her mother and
 father were adamant, she began
 taking vocal lessons unknown
 to them. Prior to the program.
 she secured two tickets to the Columbia Radio Playhouse and
 urged her parents to go as an
 evenings diversion. They were
 two very startled persons when
 the Major summoned her to the
 micrcphone to sing. And in
 those few brief moments all tho
 determ slation of the elder fco-
 maines to make Ruth a pianist
 was wiped away.
 The forthcoming motion picture, One Hundred Men and a Cir" which will star two artists current ly featured on Columbia programs. 15-year-old Deanna Durbin, and Leopold Stokowski, will, according to observers of the entertainment world, make something of mucical history. Miss Durbin, swept into stardom through radio and screen, has become famous chiefly for her Hitting interpretations of popular songs. Her distinctive talents will be featured in the new picture-and Stokowski announces that his CT chestral compositions will include excerpts from the works of Each. Beethoven, Mozart, Wagner ard Brahms.

CHAYELE GROBER. folk song
singer diseuse and actress, will
demonstrate her picturesque art at
the Hotel Washington Sunday eve
ming. December IL. at Sis. Miss Gro
Der dramatizes all her songs. Each is
presented as a little play. opening
often with a few lines of dialogue
which gives the key and atmosphere
to the piece. In some instances her
work reminds one of Ruth Diapers;
she has a similar gift for appealing
to the imagination and for peopling
| her stage with characters she creates
| out of thin air.
| Her most impressive items will con-
sist of songs directly from Palestine.
It is old Palestine, however, the land
that was completely Oriental in spirit
and flesh. The extraordinary per-
| Torrance of excerpts from The Song
| of Solomon" in which the woman
| chants nasally of herself as the Rose
of Sharon and the Lily of the Valley,
will not be easily forgotten. 1t casts
an entirely new light on the great

1t is the same with her "Old Jerusa-
lem Songs" sung to Arabic tunes.
They belong to another world, one
which can only be viewed from afar
as part of a remote antiquity.
Others in the same genre are Arabian
Romance Long Live Israeli and
"Yemenite Wedding Dance"
More familiar are the glimpses Of
Jewish life in the Western World.
These are sung mostly in Yiddish and
accompanied by lively gestures in
which Miss Grober gives full play

is one of comedy and the subjects
taken from various phases Of Jewish
home life, always intimate and often
very touching.
