. HARRISON IN HOLLYWOOD

heartedly for a few years, the
father smashed a fiddle over his
head and sent him to Vienna to
learn piano under a distinguish
ed uncle, Maurice Rosenthal. The
latter sent back with a note de-
claring that Harry would never,
never be a pianist.
So he became a trumpet play
er in Victor Herberts theater
orchestra, and before and after
show hours he played piano with
chamber music group at an
uppity hotel.
PAL OF
PRINCE
Playing at the Lido Venice in
New York at the time of the
visit of the then Prince of Wales,
Rosenthal was taken along with
the royal party for several
months.
He especially likes to recall
earlier years when he knocked
about the country playing in
early movie houses and saloons
and such. They had an ancient
Fotoplay organ in a scene in this
picture the other day, and Ros-
enthal needed no pointers on its
operation. "You watched the
screen and when some action
came along that demanded a
sound effect, you vamped with
one hand and grabbed the proper
stop or cord with the other.
Sometimes you got the wrong
one. I remember once when q
picture cut to a heart-rending
death scene. I switched to The
Flower Song and reached for
the cord to muffle the snare
drum. But the one pulled was
the whistle"

Armistice Day With
Appropriate Programs

Appropriate observance of Armis-
tice Day will be confined in most in
stances in Garrett county to the pub
lie schools, it was learned, but mem
bers of the American Legion posts

in the Elementary schools, where de-
sired.

ent of schools, said that all schools
having an appropriate Armistice
program on Tuesday morning, No

Grand Jury Called
Back to Consider
Case of Mrs. Stevey
Woman Confessed to Fatally
Shooting Her Husband on
October %

The Grand Jury for the September
term of the Circuit Court is being
recalled tomorrow to decide on
whether or not an indictment shall be
issued against Mrs. Beulah Stevey
"a, who confessed to the murder OF
her husband on October %.
Mrs. Stevey, through her attorney
waived preliminary hearing and has
been held without bail in the county
Jail since she was brought in fon
questioning a few hours after her
husband died.
Her husband, Jacob Stevey, died in
Miners hospital, Frostburg, as the re-
suit of a gunshot wound in his left
temple. The man was shot while lying
across a bed in the couples home
west of Grantsville and his wife told
officers that he had committed sui
eide.

left shoulder and right hand led Of

not have been sef-inflicted.
Two of Mrs. Stevey's children have
been taken to Swanton where they
are being cared for by Mrs. Stevey's
sister, Mrs. Paugh. They are
Emma Virginia, 6, and Leroy Will
liam, A. Another son, Ronald Lee,

turned by the grand jury the petit

CCC camp.
Mr.. Wilson has had much expert
ence in road work and was connected

engineer was created under act of the
legislature when the Board of Coun-
ty Commissioners. were given the
right to take care of their own road
system.

are over 700 miles of roads in Garrett
county which is second only to Fred
erick county in point of road mileage,
