When he joined her at a little

Romany had the uncomfortable
feeling that perhaps he hadn't eaten
his lunch.
Afterward IN the living room
Bax read the part of the lawyer

Sylvia. 1t was amazing, BaN
thought, how quickly she mao
caught on to the things he had told
her the day of her addition.
"You ARE SYLVIA he said when
she had finished. I'll never be sat
isfied with the way anyone else
does it."
DO YOU mean it," she asked I'M
believinsly.
He got up and walked over to the
window, and his lean intelligent
face was grave.
"Of course I meant it He turned
from her, looking out over the wat
mo one will ever be Sylvia to
me but you"
Romany was silent because she
did not feel like making light of it.
BaX had paid her a wonderful COM
p1iment, and he was not in the habit
of saying things for effect.
In the dropping of his tall frame
lined against the window, Romany
could see that he was not happy

derstandingly, Gust how you feel'
If we had just had the money so that
we could afford 10 wait, it wouldn't
be so bad. I'll just about go crazy
if 1 don't get a call from Interstate
soon. I've got to have a job"
THAT" Rex sighed grimly, is
just my trouble. I'm sick of trying
to live on nothing"
And, Romany thought unhapplly,
Terry O'Rourke owes you fifty dol
lars you're probably counting on
and never will see. Just then the
phone rang. 1t was Brent Nelson.
Could Romany be at Interstate
at eight o'clock in the morning?
She was to be on a n~ine-thlrty
broadcast. Brent had spoken to a
director friend of his, Hal Trotter,
about helping her get a start. 1rot-
ter had told Nelson to call her.
She almost kissed Bax in her ex-
citement when she hung up.
Imagine" she yelled happily.
I'm going to be on the air in the
morning. Hurray! I'm an actress
Bax smiled his crooked, whimsi-
cal smile.
Brent Nelson certainly isn't
wasting much time in getting your

must be a pretty swell egg"
Romany did a happy little dance.

Now the Youngsters
Have Their Day

Not only are such favorites as
Shirley Temple, Deanna Durbin,
Jane Withers, Freddie Bartholomew
and Virginia Weidler keeping busy
before the cameras, but newcomers
like Gloria Jean, Baby Sandy
Jimmy Lydon, Ann Todd, Carolyn
Lee and Baby Bobby Quillan, have
zoomed swiftly into favor in recent
months. It's a rare picture these
days that doesn't have q youngster
playing q prominent part in it some
where.
In filming Booth Tarkingtons
story Of boyhood, Little Orvie,
R-K-O Radio made use OF an.
other brilliant youngster, 8-year-old
Johnny Sheffield, who plays the
title role and handles almost hall
the dialogue in the picture.
Trained for a career by his theat-
rical parents, Johnny made his
screen debut as the boy In "Tarzan
Finds Son." and later played in
Babes in Arms" before coming to
R-K-O Radio for the Harrington
role, which is rated as his best to
date.
Seven-year-old Ann Todd also has
q prominent part in the film as
young Sheffields "girl friend" and
Ernest Truck, Dorothy Tree and
other well-known players are ir
the cast. Ray McCarey directed
the William Sistrom production.

and shade and an exultant spirit
that rose and fell with the waves of
the changing themes. In quite re-
markable fashion MIR. Ormandy
brought out one tonal color after
another, subduing the orchestral
volume with expertise while the
violins or cellos or woodwinds had
their say and with rare skill blend
ing all together again. AS an ex-
hibition Of fine musicianship and
conducting proficiency, it would
have been sufficiently satisfying, but
Mr.. Ormandy infused each move
ment with an emotional intensity
that surged forward with tremen-
dous effect.
The symphony and the concerto
formed the main body of the pro-
gram but preceding them was the
first performance in this city Of
Edward Burlinghame Hills "Sin-
fonietta for String Orchestra, Oh.
40a." Written in four movements,
1t is a work of character and imagi-
nation, smoothly constructed and
original In the balance of ideas,
First composed as a string quartet
and later arranged for the Or
chestra's string section, it gave a
specially fine opportunity to hear
the rich vibrant tone of the artists
of the Philadelphia Orchestra. In
spite of occasional lapses of pitch
In the violin section for which the
weather might have been RESPONSE
BILE, the orchestra played superbly
throughout the program. The gor-
geous wealth of tone that responded
to Mr.. Ormandy's intention in the
Brahms became an elastic play Of
sound in the accompaniment to the
Chopin concerto.
The program concluded with a
stirring performance of Silbelius'
"Finlandia" Mr.. Crmandy built up
the climax magnificently, loosing
the full volume of orchestral tone
with dramatic effect in the finale
and giving powerful and pulse
quickening reading of the work
that carries a special significance
at this time.

Famed Comedienne
Returns to Screen

Charlotte Greenwood is back be-
fore the cameras after an absence
from the screen of eight long years.
She has started work in major
role in "Star Dust" at Twentieth
Century-Fox, in which she plays q
wise-cracking, hard-boiled studio
dramatic coach who helps Linda
Darnell attain her hearts desire.
Miss Greenwood. the possessor of
probably the worlds most famous
legs, made her last picture In 1881
with Eddie Cantor. Since that time
she has devoted herself exclusively
to the stage here and abroad In plays

performance OF the orchestra under
Eugene Ormandy was on the same
plane and the popular conductor
was given an ovation after his
reading of the Brahms Symphony
No. g." which concluded the first
half of the program. In every
respect this fourth concert Of the
Philadelphia Orchestra here this
season was one that carried q spe-
cial thrill in the impassioned man
ner in which it was presented.
Chopin's works on a program are
bound to revive always the hope
that the ideal Chopin interpreter
will at last be revealed. 1t can be
truthfully said that Mr.. Rubinstein
is the ideal interpreter. In his
playing of the concerto last evening
he brought such exquisite poetry
into the haunting melodies and
such play of fire and delicacy as
must surely have reproduced the
very spirit of the composer. He has
a velvety touch that never loses
its sheen even in the most brilliant
passages and tender sympathy
for the idealistic as portrayed in
this concerto. With rare power he
created the mood of romantic dream
ing or passionate longing and his
listeners were caught in a spell,
transported and uplifted as is seldom
experienced.
The graceful arabesque pattern
which dominates the first movement
was stressed in fluent, suave style
by Mr.. Rubenstein. while the SPAR
king clarity of his technique made
brilliant climax of the finale. But
it was in the second movement, so
rhapsodically acclaimed by Liszt and
Schumann, that he reached that
breath-taking moment where music
is divorced from its mechanical me-
dium and becomes voice speaking
of lovely and ennobling sentiment.
No wonder the audience sat SPELL
bound and, when finally released,
broke into tumultuous applause. It
was an unforgettable performance
which Mr.. Rubinstein might have
prolonged indefinitely with encores
had he wished, so great was the
enthusiasm aroused.
To much the same degree did Mr..
Ormandy match Mr.. Rubinstein's
performance with an unusually
rewarding reading of the Brahms
third symphony. Seldom have the
many lyely elements of this work
been etched with so much clarity
or the play of orchestral voices been
so skillfully accomplished. The en-
tire performance was full of light

such as Leaning on Lefty" and 80
Long Lefty" among others.
The veteran comedienne attained
her first stage fame as the long,
legged lady who preferred to walk
over chairs and tables rather than
walk around them. It made her q
stage star and then Aim celebrity.
Now that she's grown little more
sedate, Miss Greenwood indicated
that she may remain in Hollywood
permanently.
TITS fun to be back In pictures, !"
she laughed, "and a lot less taxing.

Baer Slight Favorite
Over Comiskey in
Thursday Bout
Vet Knows Too Many
Answers for Youth,
Bettors Reason
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
JERSEY CITY, Sept. 2l.-Not
since tired old Jim Braddock gave
up the ghost to Joe Louis has the
youth against age question been
so marked in heavyweight bout
as In next Thursdays fight between
Max Baer and Irish Pat Comiskey.
Admittedly, the Paterson young
ster has enough punch to put any
one to sleep and is the best heavy
weight prospect today. But old
Make, although in his gymnasium
workouts he gives all the appear
ance of a tired war horse, knows a
lot OF the answers Pat doesn't.
And the betting men, who have
made him favorite at to 7 to
score the second straight win in his
comeback campaign figure this
little detail is going to spell the
difference.
No one seems sure as to whether
this fight can be a financial as we'll
as an artistic success. Up to now,
there has been about $4,000 actual
advance sale and some $4,000 more
in orders. As result, the good doc
tor figures he'll hve some 500 900
and some $4,000 r.ying customers in
the local ball park Thursday night.
