Civic Orchestra In
 Impressive Premiere
Talented Local Musicians Under Direction of Mario DiCecco Score Artictic Triumph in Initial Appearance

The first public performance of the Civic Orchestra of Waterbury directed by Mario Di Cecco, at Buck ingham hall last night, proved an important music event in the city 8 musical history. The personnel of almost 60 musicians, amateurs, pro- fessionals and students, included an evenly balanced band, and excellent violin section with balancing and adequate violas, celli, passes, wood- winds, brasses and typmani, con- pleting the ensemble. The caliber Of the performance, the smoothness and finish for a SO recently assembled orchestra, with the fine and intelli- gent directing of MT. Di Cecco, was recognized as above the ordinary. The performance throughout had style, and it was distinct pleas ure to hear the nicely chosen pro- gram.
 Guest Artist
 Benjamin Grobany, baritone, of New York city, was the assisting artist. He sang group of three selections, his first Arm, Arm, Ye Brave, recitative and aria from Handel's Judas Maccabaeus." He followed with the beautiful aria 'Wision Futitive" from Massenet's opera "Herodiade", concluding with the prologue from Leoncavallo's opera "Pagliacci." MT. Grobany sang with distinction and care and was Splendidly assisted by the or chestra. He sang as an additional number the Toreador song from Bi- zet's opera Carmen"
 Three Bach pieces opened MT. Di Cecco's program. They were Come Sweet Death" "Gavotte," and Jesus Joy of Mans Desiring" Each pre- sented a different theme and was given by the orchestra with nice phrasing and tone. Second on the program was MoZart's Symphony in G Minor In this the musicians did commendable piece of work. For an amateur group, the symphony was performed in very professional manner, and was highly enjoyable. It included the Allegro Motto, An- dante, Menuetto and Allgro Assai. Vigorous applause followed the play ing, and this as well as all other numbers in their execution showed the detail of training by MT. Di Cecco.
 Contrast
 Three compositions of decided contrast were next played. First the Spanish "Intermezzo" by Granados; next Strauss tuneful Tales of the Vienna Woods, and March of the Little Fauns" by the modern French composer Pierne.

program was TschaikoWski's Cap riccio Italienne" The orchestra played brilliantly in this number. They were alert throughout many passages of varying musical form in this sparklin composition. Here the choir of violins distinguished themselves as also did the wood- winds and horns. Fine musical tim Der was noted in these selections, and the string section is deserving of no little praise. Prolonged ap- plause followed the Tschaikowski caprice, and MT. Di Cecco had the orchestra repeat the "Intermezzo."

 The old story of the painters gas- oline torch figured in fire this noon at 378 Wilson street, the home of Mrs. Maria Herbst. The painter in question was using the torch on the front of the house, in his effort to remove the old paint, when the flame got into the clapboards, and wedged its way inside, to such an extent that the firemen, summoned after unsuccessful efforts on the part of the painter to extinguish the blaze, found the window casing burning merrily, and the fire on its way to do considerable damage.
 But the booster bumper of Engine 10. fire headquarters, soon had 1t under control with strong water pressure from that source. Smoke filled the house, and until the ar- rival of the department neighbors thought the house was doomed.
 The fire marshal and his staff seized the torch, summoned the painter to headquarters for exam ination, and will explain the law to him at this meeting.
 The marshal said the damage would amount to several hundred dollars.
 No painter has the right to use gasoline torches on houses without the sanction of the office of the fire marshal, and under the rules and regulations as set down by that body" declared the marshal. Prop erty owners should be careful to see that this permission is obtained before allowing the use. Fires from this source constitute carelessness and neglect"

Vatican City. May - (U.P) - Vatican officials announced today that the Vatican Museum, closed yesterday, would remain closed until Monday morning, when Fuehrer Adolf Hitler leaves for Florence.
 Well informed sources confirmed the belief that the reason for the closing was to avoid the possibility that visitors to the museum would encounter German tourists wearing SWastika and other Nazi emblems.

FAMlLY LIFE
 THEME SHOWN
 NOW, CAPITOL
You re Only Young Once Is Comedy-Drama Fea-
 turing Lewis Stone

Dramatizing the everyday prob | lems which face the father of an Am err ican family, You're Only Young Once" comes to the Capitol Theatre Sunday night as a picture every member of the family will enjoy.
 An intimate discussion of family life, highlighted by comedy and drama, the picture provides a cross section of the group which makes up the backbone of American life
 Lewis Stone, as Judge Hardy father of Mickey Rooney and Ce- ella Parker, is constantly bese' with internal problems arising from his children's proclivity for getting into trouble It is his duty to rescue them from these difficulties without breaking their spirit or making them rebellious
 in living up to his characteriza ton, Stone plays role reminiscent of those made popular by Will Rogers. His literary counterpart Y ould be David Hornum.' It is the type of characterization which has lived through generations on the stage and which reached It's highest point of perfection in mo- ton pictures.
 Stone finds himself called upon 1 to extricate Mickey Rooney from an affair with a spoiled and un- principled heiress whose chief ex- cuse is immaturity. No sooner does ] he clear his son than Cecilia Par ker becomes involved in an affair at Catalina Island. The young man 1 in the case happened to be already married. Through a clear under standing of his children's problems, the father manages to save them from costly mistakes and at the same time to prevent their embar raSsment.
 Included in the case are Fay Holden, Frank Craven, Ann Ruth erford, Eleanor Lynn, Ted Pear son, Sara Haden, Charles Judels and Selmer Jackson.

 Miss Helen Parrott, violinist, opened her group of three selec- tions with Tschaikowsky's "Seren- ade Melancolique," in which she brought out, with finished excel lence, the throbbirig, melancholy interpretation This number was followed by the sharply contrasting "Serenade Espagnole, by Chamin- -Kreisler.

lar elevator bins, four wing bins and two star bins, marks a revolu- tionary step in the warehousing of coffee.
 Built by a continuous construc- ton process, the structure is being cast all in one piece, In both de- sign and method of construction it is the first of it's kind for coffee storage. It is believed to be the largest coffee storage unit in the United States. In some respects it is similar to elevators constructed for grain storage but it contains many new and novel features de- signed especially to accommodate green coffee. The structure is par ticularly unique in that it permits not only the storage but also blend ing of the green coffee.
 An increasing demand for Schilling Coffee has made neces- sary this facility for storage of green stock to supply the battery of coffee roasters. In constructing this super-modern coffee warehouse, A. Schilling & Company is again pioneering in the handling and packing of fine food products as they have for over half a century.
