Of several thousand by storm in

weeks ago, will visit the Capital
second time this year to be soloist
with the National Symphony Orches-
ira and Hans Kinder, conductor.
The orchestra management has just
completed plans to bring Mr.. Rosen-

concert of the season, March 81. His
appearance will climax, not only the
orchestra's sixth year. but also this
remarkab BILE artists American tour
Mr.. Rosenthal had planned to sail
for Europe on the day Of the WASH
ington concert, but postponed his SAIL
ing to fill two engagements with the
National Symphony, one in Washing
ton and a second in Baltimore March
80.
No artist on the American concert
stage this year has won audiences so
completely as this man, the last out
standing representative Of that great
era Of piano playing associated with
the names of LisZt, Tausig and Won
Bulow At the age of 73 Mr.. Rosen-
thai, in America for the first time in
five years, has demonstrated he is
at the heighth of long and bril-
liant career Through a strenuous
season he has shown he is as keen
and dynamic a musician and as in
teresting a personality as ever.
Ever since the pianist'S recital in
Constitution Hall two weeks ago,
many have expressed the hope that
they might hear this last surviving
pupil of Franz List, as soloist with
the symphony orchestra. Because of
the extent of Mr. RosenthapS concert
tour, which had him booked continu-
ouSly through the time he had planned
to return to his home in Europe, it
was generally thought impossible that
he could return to the Capital before
another year. A stroke of good for
tune has changed this circumstance.
The work in which this phenomenal
artist will be presented has not yet
been announced, but it will undoubt-
edly be one closely associated with
that classic age of pianistics of which
Mr.. Rosenthal is the brilliant living
exponent.

his debut in Washington with his own

Next Tuesday afternoon, at 4:30

OF 16 dancers and musicians to the
National Theater for a program under
auspices of w. A. Albaugh. This
program includes some Of the former
numbers but has been revised. 1t

in D Major, Op. 101," for cello and
with Mr.. Ormandy conducting. This
lovely work is all too rarely heard and
no finer interpreter could be found for
it than the soloist of yesterdays con-
cert. OF exquisitely lyrical nature
throughout, its chief characteristic is
the cantilena and passage work in the
highest register. Mr.. Piatigorsky has
a special facility in playing in the
treble clef with an unerring feeling for
intonation and purity of tone.
One of the salient features of his
art is that at no time is one conscious
of the instrument: it seems the artist
and his medium of expression are one
1t pulses with his heart beat and
glows with the force of his tempera-
ment. Under his expert fingers, it
sang gloriously with full. resonant
tone that could, at times, sink to the
tenderest murmur. His interpreta-
ton of the concerto was poetic in
the extreme and hearing him in just
this one number was an experience
to be remembered. The enthusiastic
and long continued applause was a
plea for an encore, but the artist. mind
full Of the remainder of the program
refused to be coaxed into lengthen-
ing it.
Mr.. Ormandy. whose sensitive ac-
compartment of the concerts was q
n1aa fn no
ber in which to again demonstrate
his superb interpretative gift AS con-
Guiding work, he had programmed
Ravel's "Daphnis and Chloe Suite"
the second which he wrote for orches-
ira from the music of his ballet which
was commissioned by Diaghileft for
the Ballet Russo. Mr.. Ormandy has
a way Of unfolding music, as it were,
before the audience so.that not one
iota of its beauty or significance Is
lost. The clarity of his exposition
the fine timing of his effects and the
intense feeling for color and balance
in orchestral shadings were once more
predominant in this rendition OF this
charming work. That Mr.. Ormandy
has won the highest esteem of his
Washington public for the never fall
ing artistry and profound analysis OF
his interpretations was evidenced from
the volume Of applause which broke
forth at the conclusion and which
expressed. in part, the pleasure with
which his return next season will be
awaited.

ttlQeHdTO hOIlOye. AS CluSTenC as
East from West in their methods of
welding the baton, the two conductors
were alike in the achievement of mag
nificent results Of the highest musi-
cianship. With still greater force, one
was made conscious of the perfection
of the orchestra itself as an instru-
ment. its elasticity. the excellence Of
Its complicated mechanism, its wealth
of tonal color and Of the dynamicS
ct its command.
1t was treat to hear the Beethoven
OF Viscount Konoye, whose reading
convinced one again that music is
universal language and one which can
be spoken intelligently by master
of any nation. The superb 1Leonore
Overture No. 8" Is considered to be
the finest of the four which Beethoven
composed for his opera "Fidelio." Ac-
Cording to Wagner, the character of
the woman who saved her husband
takes on a new significance through
Beethoven's music and he speaks of
the basic idea as that of freedom
brought by jubilant angel of light
10 suffering humanity
ViScount Konoye's mastery reading
was impregnated with this ideal, and
while forceful and commanding in its
broadeSt moments, never abandoned
the spiritual concept. The same can
be said of the Beethoven Symphony
No. 2 in D Major" which he chose
for his second and last number. Every
phrase was thoughtfully defined, mi
mute stress was put on the sforzandi
and the delicate crescendo of the runs,
while the staccatti were admirably
accurate and precise. But underneath
It all there was trend OF thought
which ran through the entire work,
with never a lapse of concentration
by the conductor as to this inner con-
tent or the value of the composition
as a whole. ViScount Konoye was
enthusiastically applauded by both au-
dience and orchestra and recalled sew
eral times.

Trip To Region Made Famous By Teddy Roosevelt's
 Expedition To River Of Doubt Now Routine Matter
By MORRIS GILBERT NEA Service Staff Correspondent

New York, Aug. g. Vast depths of the Brazilian hinterland, region of Torrid, steaming jungle near that famous River of Doubt which theo- dore Roosevelt explored a quarter century ago, are now open to the most modern form of commerce air transport. For American Airways, extending it's itinerary close to two thousand miles inland from the mouth of the Amazon, has linked up this fabulously rich terri tory through regular air service.
 The first leg of the journey - 8 thousand miles of flight from Para up the Amazon to the old rubber capital, Manaos-has been in service some time. Lately, Saikorsky am- phibian served as survey ship, ex- jploring the interior beyond. Pur- pose was to establish communica- tion with Rio Branco, capital of Acre territory, lush and unima- ginably wealthy agricultural area on the edge of Bolivia and Peru.
 Blazing Trail Through Jungle
 Pioneering was one of the tough est and most exciting tasks which ever confronted Americans air explorers. Jungle beneath their flight was practically impregnable. No white man could expect to make his way through, except at the head of a thoroughly equipped native party. Ten degrees below the Equa- tor, the steamy heat was atrocious. The jungle was inhabited by ven- omous serpents, by boas of mon- strous size. Tigers" roamed there and other beasts of prey. The bush

Connecticut citizens should get acquainted with their health officer and take an active part in his pub lie health program for improving health and sanitary conditions, &C., cording to Dr. Franklin M. Foote, chief of the division of local health administration of the state depart ment of health. The health officer performs manifold services to the community, some of which were de- scribed in a dialogue between Dr. Foote and Ruth A. Kearns of the bureau of public health instruction in the departments weekly broad cast today, ..
 Dispels Impression
 First, the old idea that the health officer spends most of his time quar- antining diseased people was dissi- pated, since this, while important, is only small part of the work. Is- olation Is the means of preventing the spread of disease, but the health officer has to do much more than quarantine the house and tack up sign. He has to arrange means for delivering milk and food to those quarantined, and then turn detective. He tries to trace down the source of infection. He may inspect all the school children for signs of the disease with which one of their number has become infected. He will urge teachers to watch for symptoms, and In every way take steps to prevent others from getting the disease. Just one case of scar let fever, for instance, may keep him busy for days, since 1t Is better to become excited over one case than to withhold action until half the children in the town are sick.
 Different lines of procedure are adopted for other communicable dis eases such as tuberculosis and syphi
