tory Caravan production at the Will
lard yesterday afternoon.
The editor who had caught only
the prelude said, 1T was like this:
There was Jimmy Cagney sitting
over in a corner waiting for the
arrival of Merle Oberon, with whom
he is to do a skit. Mr.. Cagney, in
an af1able. happy mood because he
has just been to his place in New
England, was in no hurry. The
weather in New England has been
wonderful, he said The weather in
New England is always marvellous
to Mr.. Cagney who likes it better
there than anywhere else in the
world, especially than Hollywood.
"Mr. Cagney chatted with the
critics along that line. Mark Sand
rich, the director, was sitting nearby
behind a screen. He was talking
to Gene Ford. Every now and then
the critics caught word, Mr.. Ford
will be the man in charge Of the
details of the staging Of the show
at the Capitol tonight. They were
too busy to talk, save to each
other.
Frank Seller, the press agent
who has been with the troup since
it left Hollywood Sunday night,
came up to say hello and to COM
ment on how hard Mr.. Sandrich
works. He has had only seven
hours sleep in nearly four days,
Frank said.
Miss Oberon came in then. She
was with Alexander Korda, the pro-
ducer, who is her husband. She
was introduced as Mrs. Korda. But
the people standing around. more
of them in uniform than out, went
on thinking that she was Merle
Oberon.
Mr.. Korda came over and was
introduced to the critics. Mr.. Gag
ney and Miss Oberon wandered into
corner with Mr.. Sandrich to re-
hearse their dramatic sketch.
Mr.. Korda, a tall man with iron
gray hair and not the fat man we
always thought he would be, sat
down. He said he had just returned
from Europe via clipper. He seemed
to have withstood the trip very we'll
Some people milled around and
there was more talk and actors were
beginning to wander in and look
for Mr.. Sandrich.
1--WE didn't wait.
$50 we won't know what the show
is like until we see it at the Capitol
tonight.
And neither will any one else.
But it certainly has slew of talent"
The copy boy went away, ap-
parently not very satisfied.

Virgil Fox
Concludes
Series
Skill and Art
Revealed in
Rare Recital
BY ELENA DE SAYN.

An impressive organ recital, such
as one has not many occasions to
record, was heard last night at the
Washington Cathedral, given by
Virgil Fox under the auspices Of
the District of Columbia Chapter,
American Guild Of OrganiSts.
When an artist has the power
to lift his listener beyond the walls
Of a great cathedral or concert
hall. and can enrich the scope Of
ones vision by a new experience,
he is a master indeed. 1t was a
revelation to hear Mr.. Fox, who
made use of the possibilities Of the
organ and drew to the fullest upon
its inexhaustible resources.
Few organists can make a tone
poem of every number played, give
it an individual character and en-
phasize the superiority Of the Or
gan as a solo instrument. From
an ethereal pianissimo the artist
at need, would swell skillfully the
volume to an unprecedented degree
bring out the loveliness Of the wood
wind, the sharpness Of brass stops
or display the force Of the pedals
with startling effect. In Mozart's
''Fantasie in r Minor" a compli-
Gated collection of leading voices
was blended in one magnificent
chorus. Williams dramatic Intro
duction, Passacaglia and Fugue'
proved a worthy vehicle for Mr..
Fox's artistry.
The fleetness Of the organist's
fingers could be fully realized In
Bossis "Giga" and in Dupre's tax
ing prelude and Figue in G Minor y
in which velocity and clarity OF ex-
ecution required two different treat
ments: a will-of-the-wisp effect in
the former and the brilliancy Of a
difficult number in contrapuntal
form in the latter. Middelschulte' s
"Perpetuum Mobile" for pedals alone
was a feat of rare pedal technique
and was contrasted with Hure's de-
votional Communion" In which the
artist brought out skillfully its mys-
Evening star., 1942-04-30

tical element. As composition
BENEFITS modernistic "Allegretto
Grazioso" was less interesting than
the former but was lost in the gen.
eral excellence of the program which
Mr.. Fox began with Compra's Ri
gaudon," followed by three Bach
numbers, "Arioso," "Fugue a Ia
Clique" and Come Sweet Death
This concert concluded the annual
festival of organ music sponsored
by the local chapter of the A. G.. o
The audience was a large and an
attentive one.

"a clear line" must be drawn "be-

By GARNETT d. HORNER.

Assurance was held out to the
italian people today that victory
for America means freedom for
Italy"-liberation from Mussolini's
dictatorship and the status of "a
despised vassal' of Hitler.
Indicating a definite policy by
this Government to encourage
spirit of revolt within Italy against
FaScism and subservience to the
Axis, Assistant Secretary of State
Dean Acheson emphasized this
message of hope" in an address
to an Italian American rally here
last night.
The final choice between "restora-
ton to a free and full life" under
principles of the United Nations
Atlantic Charter and "a gamble
instead upon a vassals pickings in
Hitler's New Order" he said, Lies
with the italian people"
He added that there is no ooubt
what the choice will be because
Italians knew from bitter expert
ence the miseries of the road along
which they have been led" and that
those miseries must continue with
increasing intensity until they de-
stroy the cause of them, and re-
establish themselves in the line of
their own traditions as one of the
free peoples of the earth"
