Pop Concert
Puts Accent
On Youth
Piano Team
Performs in
Easy Style
Bv ALICE EVERSMAN.

The National Symphony Orchestra
started on the home stretch Of this
series last evening by turning over
the program to three young men.
In fact. considering that youth is
the attribute Of the symphony men,
bers, it was fitting that conductor
and soloists should be also in that
class. Howard Mitchell, the first
chair cenist of the orchestra, who
had his first try at directing his
fellow musicians last week, had a
more elaborate program on which
to exercise his talent. The young
soloists were a new-to-the-city duo
piano team, Arthur Whittemore and
Jack Lowe.
The sultry weather of the last few
days doubtless awakened a longing
in the heart of many for the Water
Gate site. The Riverside Stadium,
however, proved to be cool and
pleasant and, with refreshing drinks,
the audience seemed to make out
very well. Hard labor with hands,
arms and breath had its effect on
the musicians, yet in spite of dis
comfort the program moved along
with spirit.
The music itself was sprightly and
Mr.. Mitchell's conducting of 1t was
energetic and forceful. Except for
the Prelude to Act III of Wagner's
Die Meistersinger." the Scene
d'Amour" from Delibes' La Source
Ballet and Grieg's Heart
Wounds" there was an accent on
quick movement and rousing effects
Both of these qualities were en-
phasized in Mr.. Mitchells directing
of the overture to Mozart's Mar
riage of Figaro" the remaining
numbers of La Source Ballet"
Grieg's In the Hall Of the Noun
tain King" and Crisis Vienna,
1913" the latter work of charm in
the Viennese idiom Mr.. Mitchell's
success was pronounced.
Mr.. Whittemore and Mr.. Lowe
have developed a most agreeable art
in their method of playing. They
perform in easy, unaffected manner
and manage TO weave the music in
a pleasant, unbroken steam of sound
that both hides and discloses their
technical proficiency and musical
understanding.
LISTS "Pathetique' piano con-
certo served to introduce the new
corners and arouse an interest that
led to several additional numbers
after the concerto was finished. In
the lyric moments of LISTS work
the cantabile was well stressed by
the players and their suave tone
| registered an effect. The opportu-
mites for the more grardiose Liszt-
ian outburst were not take advan-
tage of to the extent possible and
for that reason the work, not one
OF the most outstanding of the great
pianist's creation, was somewhat
. lacking in color The encores
showed the originality of the per-
formers in better light and it was
apparent that they could have con-
tinued playing Indefinitely.
But a community sing was pro-
grammed after the second inter-
mission to be led by Gene Archer
and with some sheets distributed
among the audience, the evening
ended in jolly fashion.
Thursday night the program will
be a Victor Herbert one, with Sylvan
Levin as guest conductor and for
soloiSts Mary Ida Bowen, soprano;
Elwood Gary, tenor, and Drusilla
Huffmaster, pianist.

&SboA AoAASA - OAAy Wi WV 40 W. -
in the Army Now" q picture he Is
working on with Miss Wyman. The
scene required Tony to keep the
palm of his hand on Jimmy's head
and hold him OF contemptuously
while Jimmy failed the air.
Jimmy threw himself into his
work with such vigor that he caught
Tony Caruso in the solar plexus,
landing q cosmic punch-the one
Lou Nova forgot to take along with
him when he went to fight Joe
Louis. The odd part of the tale is
that Tony, who is husky guy and
in good shape, was ashamed to ad-
init having been hurt. Jimmy has
arms like rubber bands and biceps
like lamb chops. So, Tony tried to
stay on his feet and stayed as long
as he could, about a minute, with
mouth open as II in surprise, al
though actually with breathlessness,
and then slowly toppled over and
out.
"All my life" Jimmy said. ''I been
kept out of cafe society by the fact
that my biceps Is like blister on
bicycle tire and 1 couldn't punch my
way into the Blue Book. But, just
now, when opportunity knocked. 1
knocked back and knocked It's
brains out. Wait till they hear
about this in New York. Killer Du-
rante! They'll put red rug out
for me In all the East Side joints
where I was thrown out every time
I stuck my nose in"
Subsequently, the discussion of the
art Of kissing was resumed. Miss
Wyman now holds the record out
here, having just completed the
longest kiss ever made before q
camera-3 minutes and 5 seconds
Regis Toomey was the accomplice.
Poor Reggie" Miss Wyman said,
puzzlingly. The previous worlds
record Of 562 seconds was made by
George Brent and Ann Sheridan.
The Wyman-Toomey buss was a
comedy shot They had to hold 1t,
but the camera did not remain
focused on them all that time. The
camera wandered around keeping its
eve on Hays office edict regulating
the length of embraces
The one thing I learned from
this is said Miss Wyman and we
made notes on behalf OF the BOYS
and girls out there. kissing some
one a long time without an inter-
mission is very dangerous. The
mind is likely to wander of the
subject"

the reading public that has lips?

FIeniing,Head OfWage-Hour Gives Policy
''Even Great Britain Has Not Relaxed Provision
 For Overtime Pay"

HASTINGS, Neb. - General Philip B. Fleming, administrator of the Wage-Hour Act, has launched a new attack on sweat shoppers who try to use nation al defense as an alibi for de- structiOn of labor standards.
 Addressing the Nebraska State Federation of Labor here, Flem- ing warned that relaxation of the 4O-hour-week safeguard in the act would simply aggravate unemployment.
 FIVE MILLION UNEMPLOYED He cited A. F. of L figures, show ing that over 5,OOOOOO workers are still jobless and that millions in non- defense industries face loss of their jobs because of shortages of mate rialS.
 Tn other words, we still have an unemployment problem and we shall continue to have an unemployment problem next year," he declared. "One thing that will help most to reduce it is retention of the provision in the Wage-Hour law, requiring payment of time and one-half for overtime"
 NO HELP TO DEFENSE
 Fleming ridiculed claims that elim- ination of the requirement for over time pay above 40 hours would help defense.
 T don't know how employers fig ure a skilled worker will produce more for defense in AS hours at straight time than if the extra eight hours were paid for at time and one half" the administrator asserted.
 There may be a scarcity of some types of workers in few industries, such as machine tools, but that Is no argument for weakening of the law, Fleming maintained.
 INJUSTICE!
 There are approximately 15,500,- 900 workers covered by the law" he pointed out. "Just to permit mere handful of them to work long hours without overtime pay, some people would be willing to force the mil lions also to toll long hours without the overtime penalty-people in can dy and cigarette factories, packing plants, lumber yards and the like"
 GREAT BRITAIN'S POLICY
 Even Great Britain, which is now fighting with its back to the wall and has practically its en- tire able-bodied population at work, has not relaxed overtime pay standards, the Wage-Hour chief stressed.
 ''Virtually all British work ers," he said, 'are being paid at least time and one-haf for all hours worked over the normal work week."

Witness Tells Police
Torrance Bribed Him
To Conceal Evidence
Declares Explorers Wife
Died 7 Miles From Scene
Of Auto Crash
BY the Associated Press.

by INC hSSONAdkco fiess-
MONTEREY, Mexico, Nov. %
Trial Judge Jesus B. Santos re-
ported officially today that police
had arrested a witness who testi-
fed he had been bribed by Arthur
Torrance to conceal that he had
found the author-explorer alone,
calmly smoking cigar, at the spot
where Torrance's elderly bride &C
tually met death, about seven miles
from the point given by Torrance
as the scene of an automobile accl-
dent fatal to his wife.
"She was killed here" the judge
said the witness, Andres Ruiz, told
him after taking Judge Santos to
a clump of bushes near the spot
where he claims he saw the globe
trotting writer the night of Mrs.
Torrance's death.
The 54-year-old New York writer
lis charged with numbering the for
mer Mrs. Ada Loveland Of Kala-
mazoo, Mich, with whom he was
on a Mexican honeymoon and who.
he insists, died not at his hands but
in an automobile crash.
Cash and a $4,000 ermine coat
belonging to the dead woman were
named by Ruiz, a local traffic agent,
as the price of his silence, Judge
Santos asserted.
In connection with the police
theory that Torrance beat his ST.
year-old bride of three weeks to
death with a vacuum bottle, it was

assigned to the Supreme Court.
Coverage then was more compli-
Gated than now. Under the present
system, reporters get printed copies
of the decisions to puzzle over as
the court disposes of each case.
Twenty years ago they were forced
to get their stories by listening to
the decisions read from the bench.
And sometimes it was the ad lib
bing OF the judge reading the opin-
ion that made the headlines, rather
than the context of the opinion it
self, Mr.. Suter recalls. In a job re-
curing exceptional accuracy, as
well as speed, the newsman found a
challenge to his talents that was met
in full measure, and it was not long
before a Suter story was recognized
as final authority on the court.
Companion Of Taft.
His ability to attract and hold
friends proved a valuable asset here
to Mr.. Suter and to the Associated
Press. Chief Justice Taft found In
the reporter a delightful companion
and often took Mr.. Suter home with
him in his automobile. Then they
would sit in front of the Taft home
reminiscing and discussing events
of the day. Other justices were
likewise attracted to the writer who
interpreted their work for the world
This paid dividends years later.
The exacting nature of his court
labors finally took their toll, anc
in 1885 a serious illness forced Mr.
Suter to curtail his activities. But
! he was at the court every day
