comings common to this whole

adequacy is outstanding. Writers
assigned to such tasks, including
Virginia Van Upp who did "Vir-

high standard, are under a deep
responsibility to be sentimental.
They must convey the impression

create that impression they take all

By ALICE EvERSMAN.

A departure in the ordinary rou-
tine of symphony program was
introduced at yesterdays concert
of the National Symphony Orches-
ira by having Hendrix Willem Van
Loon, as commentator, share the
place of prominence with Grace
Castagnetta, the piano soloist. Mr..
Van Loon was not commentator
in the dictionary sense of the word,
nor were his words concerned dl-
rectly with the programmed num-
bers. He was a commentator on
music in general and claimed to
be making propaganda for a Sc
cret weapon-an invincible weapon
belief in mankind and in COM
mon decency."
1t is through music that one re-
affirms ones belief in the common
man, stated Mr.. Van Loon, and
music should never be used as an
escape" as some have so styled
it, but rather as means of gaining
strength to face whatever problems
confront us. While there was an
underlying current of seriousness in
what he said, with many references
to the world conditions OF today,
he made a clever and amusing talk
that evoked laughter in the digni-
fed surroundings of Constitution
Hall, where the serious business OF
real music making takes place. MIR.
Van Loon paid a tribute to his cou-
sin, DR.. Kindler, saying that al
though no stone would be placed
at his birthplace in Holland, the
work he has done here will be a
substitute.
This diverting and intimate talk
took place after the intermission.
when the orchestra had already
played Bach's "Passacaglia and
F'ugue" and Miss Castagnetta had
performed the Bach Concerto in
D Minor" with great success. Mr..
Van Loon and Miss Castagnetta
have collaborated in a volume OF
Bach, the biography written by Mr..
Van Loon and recordings made Of
certain numbers by the pianist.
Her refined style in the presenta-
ton OF the concerto and the pearl
like quality of her tone made de-
cided impression and somewhat OF
an ovation was the result.
But it was in Dohananyi's "Varia-
tions on Nursery Rhyme" that
her very special gifts of elegance,
tone colorings and intuitiye feel
ing were manifest In a more elab-
crate way. The Variations is an
unusual composition that from the
simple basis of childish tune be-
comes a symphonic work with great
climaxes. There is skillful en-
ployment of certain instruments of
the orchestra in the II variations
and the finale, among them the
combination of harp and bells with
the strings playing pizzicato as
background for the piano and the
xylophone and piccolo used in one
of the sections.
Miss Castagnetta played it superb
ly. the hrilliancy of her perform
ancs being quite outstanding. Her

chance. Ginger's appearance on
the Oscar decorated platform was
a first run-just as it was for Jimmy
Stewart, who scooped up best
actor" pay dirt. In two previous
years, each had come close to the
coveted honor only to lose out by q
few votes.
It seemed for a few tense seconds
as though Ginger would never be
able to get through with her thank
you speech. She wept, turned
from the mike to hide her tears and
almost dropped the statuette. d.
Finally recovering under the back
patting administrations of Academy
President Walter Wanger, she faced
the mike again and spoke in a
broken voice: I'D like to say a
word of gratitude to the one who
has stood by me all these years
my dear mother"
Lanky Jimmy Stewart, face chalk
white under the bright lights and
excitement, spoke slowly, simply and
earnestly. Later the winners
were asked to report to the bowl
basement, where still and newsreel
photographers wanted to put them
through routine Photographic PAGES.
-. But the bulbers missed the best
imposed shot of the evening when
Ginger and Jimmy met on the stair
way. Each clutched a statuette in
nervous fingers. Without word
they threw their arms around each
other, kissed and danced for sheer
joy. Ginger's Oscar was pressed
tightly against the back of Jimmy's
neck, while his own was humping
up and down her spinal column.
Before the awards were made
Bob Hope, comedy man of the eve
ming, assembled the platform, looked
over the resplendent array of un-
awarded statuetteS and said: What
happened-did Selznick bring 'em
all back from last year?" He
referred to Bette Davis as coming
every year for a cup of coffee-and
an Oscar" Hope complained that
was playing another benefit :. But
the comic had this remark splashed
back a few moments later when
Wanger interrupted to present him
with a special award for faithful,
unselfish contribution to the in
duStry." Hope played more benefit
shows last year than any actor in
the business. Somehow I don't
feel a bit funny any more" Hope
said. He was so overcome it was
more than a minute before he could
resume.
Presenting the writing awards,
Quentin Reynolds, here from Eng
land on a speaking and vacation
tour, seized upon the occasion to
unleash a bit, of sarcasm that in
dustry leaders grumbled about after
the session. :. Reynolds suggested
that the possible reason an auditing
firm had been engaged to tabulate
the 10000 votes was that producers
might have trouble counting that
high-in English. /. the short sub
ject, London Can Take It." which
Reynolds and several associates
made in England, was a contender
for top honors in the briefie divi-
sion. He told how, after making
it in six days, they wondered what
to do with it. 81 said I knew a
couple of fellows named Warner in
Hollywood and would telephone one
of them," Reynolds related. IT
did. Mr.. Warner told me to send
it over and that not only the net,
Evening star., 1941-03-03

but the gross would be sent back
for British relief"
When Wanger returned to the
rostrum later he won applause by
saying he hoped Reynolds would
soon make another short, London
Can Give It." In handing out
awards to cameramen for best pho
tography, Rosalind Russell-the
most beautifully frocked lady of the
evening-drew laughter when she
off-sided to George Barnes: you

Winners For and Against
Jay-Walking Ordinance

Chief of Police George Bryant
and Patrolman George Mourar
asked by the Libby Woman's Club
to act as judges on the articles sent
in to the club in answer as to
whether Libby should or should not
have an ordinance prohibiting jay
walking. The two men selected the
two following as winners-one for
and one against such an ordinance.
For Ordinance
| | think the City of Libby should
have an ordinance against lay-walk-
| ing for the safety and protection of
both the pedestrian and the driver
of car.
Against Ordinance
No, | do not favor an ordinance
for Libby prohibiting jay-walking.
Why? We have too many laws
now for our officers to try to en-
force without burdening them with
another. Many offenders would
get by, A few would be caught,
perhaps a coveted tourist, or well
come visitor.
The fact that the practice might
result in death or injury should
be sufficient to inspire US to launch
a drive to abandon the practice.
Main streets, white-lined at cross
ings, would help. Posters might
help. Our school patrol are doing
what they can. Let us, I'VE, the
people" show our stuff and make
Libby safe by obeying "one" un-
written law.

Population Is Shifting
From Cities to Farms

1t has been apparent for some
time that the population trend is
away from the cities and toward the
farm. Now the fact seems to be
officially proved by the advance try
out in the 1910 federal census. Two
counties in Indiana were selected
by the government for the prelim-
mary count. The first figures have
been released, showing that while
St. Joseph county has gained some
what in its rural areas, the two
principal cities, South Bend and
Mishawaka, have decreased by
few thousand. The difference was
slighter in the case Of Marshall
county and its county seat, Plym-
outh. The town gained little, but
the county gained more. These are
only two small straws, Of course, but
they show which way the wind is
blowing and the fact is significant
after long period when the drift
to the cities was regarded as a Sc
rious social problem.
