Music For Sub Program Is
 tOlen At EB
By Phil Lloyd


 Through the very small mean ,1-aess of some person or persons in s the big machine shop, evidently
 suffering from a chronic attack of
 Rleptomania. The Sub was unable M put a program on the air Thurs
 2ay, April 9th. So many of The
 Subs listening audience inquired
 why we did not air our regular
 program we decided to let the peo- 4 pie know just what took place on that date.
 Miss Ruth Garland, employed in ethe South Yard progress depart ment and the daughter of that very
 popular South Yard foreman, Pop
 eye Garland, was to have been
 sOloist on The Subs program. Miss
 Garland has had a great deal of
 Operatic training, which she re-
 eeived in New York and is now < studying with Miss Grace Leslie of the Connecticut College Music De- payment. MT. George Scholfe1d,
 weh known organist, was to have F accompanied Miss Garland on the < organ and MT. Henry Carey, en- ployed in the South Yard Tin Shop,
 was to have. played violin solo
 and also given a background to Miss Garland's voice. These three people need no introduction to the music lovers of New London and < surrounding counties and it was a \ great disappointment to the people
 who arrange these programs as well as to the listeners who had < TreQuested this musical program when it was found impossible to put the program on the air.
 Music Stolen From Craig
 "WeS" Craig, well known musi-
 elan and arranger, who is respon-
 gible fo the arrangements of the
 Electric Boat Orchestra, and who,
 by the way, is related to Miss Gar ,gland, was asked by The Sub to transpoSe Miss Garlands music and
 also to write some arrangements { to make suitable backgrouy/ for Hher beautiful soprano voice. Yves,
 who is always willing to go out
 of his way to help anyone, readily 7 agreed to help The Sub. He took <xssze music which was to be trans posed and placed it on a locker where he thought it would be safe
 until he was through his work and .l 4< Wh0y1 hn
 ready to leave work he went to
 the locker to pick up the music, but 1t was gone. Now "Wes" is an honest as the day is long, and
 thinking someone was playing a
 prank he didn't say anything about
 the music that night, but when the 1 music didn't show up next day he questioned everyone in the shop
 without success. When "Wes" fi-
 nally came to the conclusion that
 there are some pretty small people left in the world and that one of
 these had stolen Miss Garland's music, 1t was too late to obtain new ]. music, rehearse and stage the show, \ and the program was postponed to N . later date.
 This was one of the smallest N tricks I have heard of in long time and 1t was pulled on one of the incest and most accommodating
 gents that I have had the pleasure of calling a friend. It was great disappointment to all of us and 1t was something no one could help except the sneak thief responsible b for the disappearance of the music. The Sub hopes to have this trio appear on one of it's future pro- grams and until then I have only one thing to say-that the one re-
 sponsible for stealing the music
 could walk under snakes belly
 in an upright position attired in
 high silk hat and never scrape
 the top of the hat, and that is be-
 ing pretty low down
