National Gallery
OF Art Filming
Is Impressive
By ELENA DE SAYN,

Those who were invited to view
the first exhibit of the sound film
entitled the National Gallery OF
Art" shown in the auditorium of
the National Gallery of Art yester-
day afternoon, could not be but I'M
pressed by its significance. This
artistic bird's-eye view of the edifice,
the treasures housed therein and Of
the up-to-date mechanical devices
intended for their preservation, was
photographed by 1t. Arthur E.. Ar
ling, U. S. N. r. With a keen per-
ception he brought out the salient
points of the masterpieces and the
beauties of architecture in many
details.
The film had an added interest OF
narration and was accompanied by
music. The collarborators are mem-
bers of the National Gallery Of Arts
staff, Lamont Moore and Richard
Horner Bales, respectively. The
preview was prefaced by program
played by some 80 members Of the
United States Navy Band Symphony
under the direction of 1t. Charles
Brendler. In addition to Saint
Saens' "Marche Heroique, Op. 34,''
Tschaikowsky's ballet suite "The
Swan Lake" Ries' "Perpetuum Mo-
bile, Op. "a, No. S." arranged by
Ernest Forte and played by the
| nrst-violin section; Liszt- Weiner's
"Will-o-the- Wisp" and Liszt- Byrns'
Grand Galop Chromatique," the
Navy Band Symphony ensemble per-
formed Mr.. Bales "The National
Gallery" suite, which was later
sounded in record form during the
preview of the film.
Consisting of nine musical
sketches, Prelude" THE Rotunda, .
Gallery Views" THE Courts" Me-
chanics," The Life of Christ
Transition" Two Women" and
Finale" perfectly timed to corre-
spond with the action on the screen
the suite has a familiar American
motif for its main theme which
Mr.. Bales cleverly developed. Writ
ten in a modern idiom, the music
is melodious. has spontaneity and
animation which adds to the in
terest of the film.

Baby Art a Problem

LOS ANGELES.
You might have expected 1t: Fan
ny Brice, who has made a career of
her Baby Shocks role, also has
made hobby of baby art.
The radio and screen actress has
spent Is years collecting examples
of child drawings in crayon, pencil,
oils or water colors, At of which
are now on exhibit at the Los An
geles County Museum. She says
they interest her primarily because
they represent the uninhibited ex-
pressions of childish perception and
imagination, and are all the more
effective because they have been
executed by unframed hands.
But childhood disappointment in
her own life also was a motivating
force in this hobby.
'At the rate of one a day." she
relates, Il had drawn and painted
some 200 pictures in a book when
I was stricken with rheumatism.
BY the time recovered four months
later the book was lost"
Since then she has looked with
more than ordinary sympathy upon
the artistic groupings of the very
young. Her collections, numbering
nearly 100, is wholly the work of

HULL WOOD,
Make believers at work:

Nldht-DtIltNtlS dL WDIk,
Birth of a popular song on a
moonlight night some 35 years ago
has been graphically and audibly
recorded for the picture, Shine On,
Harvest Moon
The mechanics of the scene were
probably more difficult to work out
than the song idea itself. With
Jack Norworths help-he wrote the
original tune for which the film has
been named-Script writer's, Direc-
tor David Butler and a flock OF in
genious prop men combined to make
the birth of this song important.
The Western defense command
having long since stepped in and
banned night filming. with its dam
gerous flares to be seen at sea, the
actual countryside of Los Angeles
couldn't be used Consequently, a
large exterior set was built inside
one Of the big Warner Bros. stages.
The camera, mounted on a pivot
ing crane in the middle, followed
the buggy, containing Ann Sheri-
dan, as Nora Bayes, and Dennis
Morgan, as NorWorth, as they rode
around complete circle, past the
old barn, past the fields of corn and
pumpkins and straight toward the
huge harvest moon that loomed
from one end of the set.
For half the distance Morgan
toyed with the beginning of an idea
for song, both with words and
tune. Then, about half way around
the large oval he first huns and
then attempts to sing the first words
and notes of the chorus. Ann helps
as Norworth said Nora Bayes
helped him-with some of the
rhymes, especially the words June
or July"
Before the long circle is COM
pleted, Morgan finishes the words
and music Of the chorus-and thus
future audiences are taken behind

Orchestra Opens Season
Mario Di Cecco Directs - David Maiden Gives
Notable Violin Performance Large Audi
ence Attends Event at Buckingham Hall

D Major two seasons ago. Last night
Maiden played first, the Bruch Con-
certo in G Minor. and later in the
program Saint Introduction
and Rondo Capriccioso.
Mr.. DiCecco's presentation last
night was characterized as always
by those qualities that have made
this organization an outstanding
one in the community and through
out the state. His directing is in
telligent and skillful. Last night he
had competent and adequate
group for the pieces played. only
slightly smaller in size than last
season. The players did justice to
the numbers played, opening with
Rossinis Overture to I'll Barbieri di
Siviglia," followed by the Andante
and Allegro di motto movements of
Haydn's Symphony No. in G Ma
jor called the Surprise" Symphony.
There was slnoothness In the per-
Torrance of the orchestra in the
violin section and in the other
choirS of players. In the second half
of the program the orchestra played
two Hungarian Dances by Brahms,
Nos. 5 and 6, then the Strauss
Tales of the Vienna Woods also
Snetana's Dance of the Come
dians," concluding with the Over
ture to "Phedre" by Massenet.
David Maiden gave a performance
that brought forth deserved ap-
plause. He has an astounding tech
nique for his years and in the
Bruch concerto gave a compelling
performance. Two seasons ago he
impressed an appreciative audience,
and again last night, showed a
marked advance and comprehension
of the works he was presenting. 1t
was a pleasure to hear him in the
Concerto, and likewise in the Saint
SaenS number which he gave with
so much assurance and ease. After
continued applause the young artist
played two difficult pieces, the num-
Der / and 7 Caprices by Paganini.
Here. unaccompanied by the orches-
ira, he displayed the scope of his
violinistic ability and agility. In his
previous pieces he had the fine sup
port of the orchestra. Sixteen years
of age, young Maiden Is pupil of
Ivon Galamin. Considering the
present mastery Of the technicalities
of the violin and an awareness of
musical standards. he seems headed
for future success.
The program opened last night
with the playing of the National
Anthem and was dedicated to the
members of previous years now
serving in the armed forceS-M. M.
