|WPB Symphony
Gives Concert
BY ELENA DE SAYN.

On . program where music Of
Scandinavian composers predomi-
mated, the War Production Board
Symphony, under the direction Of
Van Lier Lanning, gave the first Of
the fifth pair Of concerts last night
at the Social Security auditorium.
presenting the worlds premiere of
Diehn's Fantasy" for piano and
orchestra. The solo part was played
by Elizabeth Lyon. who showed a
good technical equipment and an in
telligent outlook on her art.
The young pianist re-created with
sympathy the idyllic mood Of the
work with its varying tempt and de-
scriptive passages. which she played
with delicacy to the sustained back
ground OF the woodwind. She
showed adequate robustness, in the
first half OF the program, in her per-
formance of the Concerto in A
Minor" by Grieg, although the old
and worn instrument, placed at her
disposal, was not exactly an asset
either in quality of tone or adjust
ment. Both the soloist and Mr..
Diehn, who was in the audience,
shared equally in the cordial ap-
plause bestowed upon them and
were recalled several times. Mrs.
Lyon received floral tributes after
each of her numbers.
Several other novelties, Bruckner's
Overture in G Minor" written
along more or less conventional
lines, Sibelius' 'King Christian II
Suite, Op. a." consisting of three
movements, "Serenade,' ''Nocturne"
and "Ballade," and Svedsen,s Nor
wegian Rhapsody No. 3" provided
an extensive scope for the orchestra
to show the good progress made
since its last appearance. If variety
of volume and nuance could have
equaled the facility of playing the
notes, yesterdays performance
would have scored another point.
The program will be repeated to-
night.

in one of those Freudian duels which
is not bit unlike many that have
gone before but which does look
somewhat rested after its long idle
ness. 1t profits in freshness, too
by having Claude Binyon as its
author. Mr. Binyon, a fat man.
has ever been a one to laugh in
fectuously at love and his mirth
rings LOUD and clear through two
thirds of his newest charade. The
last one-third (who said we couldn' t
fathom fractions?) lets down rather
sharply, but two-thirds of a farce is
lot more than movie audiences
have been getting lately.
The whimsical Binyon whose
major conviction is that all people
are laughable, and perhaps a bit
wistful, has dreamed up an engag-
ing pair of lovers for Miss Colbert
and MacMurray to impersonate. She
is woman photographer, a type
that has come to represent the
last word in sophistication in the
cinema's current catalogue of female
characters MacMurray is the pri-
mordial man, rather literally out of
the ooze and slime in that his job
is that of sand-hog on a tunnel
project. In the animal kingdom,
which was not completely remote
from the authors thought, their
equivalents would be a Pekingese
and Great Dane, another amusingly
contrasting pair.
An attraction between such OPP
posites as these could be, and is,
fraught with considerable explosive
ness in an Imagination like Binyon's.
He wastes no time-at least, bare
minimum-in introducing his in
cipient lovers right. in the middle
of the muck and machinery of the
tunnel project. The soigne Miss Col
bert looks very funny in such an
environment, but no funnier than
MacMurray when he turns up for
their second meeting in the fragile
boudoir where she lives on Park
avenue. mo Time for Love" makes
much of the contrast between the
backgrounds of the two, frequently
in rugged slapstick way, but it
manages to hold the interest for
most of the picture.
Director Mitchell Leisen's course
in the subconscious which he took
while making Lady in the Dark"
contributes happily to one of the
best early rounds in the love bout
between the principals.
Miss Colbert has been fascinated
by MacMurray's muscles to a point
that she dreams constantly of him.
That is no less than duck soup for
Director Leisen who turns it into a

It's DiscOncertina
HOLLYWOOD

When it comes to cumming up the
works of motion picture making
there's nothing quite like the au-
thentic article to do it-chewing
gum.
Betty Cradle found that out on
the set of "Pin-Up Girl" Betty was
engaged in singing" one of the pic
lures hit tunes. All her concentra-
tion was required, because she had
to listen to playback of the pre-
viously-recorded song and then
move her lips silently to synchro-
nlze with the record.
But gum chewers on the set
wagged their jaws so furiously as
they stood in front of the star that
she became disconnected, to the
ruin of two takes.

fantastic scene in which the dream
ing Miss Colbert plunges into space
only to be rescued by MacMurray,
who assumes the shape of Super
man in a dive bomber. 1t is much
more imaginative than Hollywood
used to be in its dealings with the
sub-conscious of persons dallying
with love.
Another coyly conceived passage
among the more amusing ones of
mo Time for Love" is that in which
Miss Colbert undertakes to divert a
group of Irish sandhogs from a
battle royal, but inducing them to
play game of musical chairs. That
it turns into the most murderous
game of musical chairs ever played
is considerable help to the farcial
quality of the picture.
Situations akin to many that you
have found in the same plot on
previous occasions are the main
dependence of mo Time for Love-"
but Mr.. Binyon realizes that dia-
logue can be a great help to
familiar situation. He thinks up
number of clever things for his
lovers to say to each other as they
almost literally slug out their diff
ferences of temperament, philoso-
ply and background.
The. Interpretation of mo Time
for Love" presents no problems at
all to its principals. They have been
mixed up in the same theme for
many pictures now and that they
are able to take it on again with
no intimation of boredom goes
long way toward keeping you from
feeling the same thing. Others who
seem properly at home in the antic
flow of the story include Ilka Chase,
Richard Haydn, June Havoc and
Paul McGrath.
Three acts, headed by Comedian
Pat Henning, constitute the high
lights of the colorful stage produc-
ton, which Harry Anger has con-
trived for this weeks Earle program.
Mr.. Henning has not been particu-
larly creative since the last time he
brought his material here, but that
is fashion among comics, and his
way of handling his old stock is
better than most.
A pretty opening for the program
has been devised for the talented
dance team of Depree and Charlo.
a rhythmic and acrobatic team of
Renald and Rudy, plus the Roxy
cites in a tom-tom routine that is
both intricate and effective.

HOLLYWOOD.

Make-believers at work:
They always say that the greatest
performances are those put on by
actors who don't realize they're
acting-behind the scenes, in the
commissaries and in the night
clubs. This theory certainly held
true at Columbia the other morning.
While the cameras weren't turning,
Jean Arthur, Charles Coburn and
Lee Bowman gave out with nothing
less than academy winning exhibi-
tions. It was on the set of THE
Impatient Years" and was done for
the benefit of a 10-month- -old baby
named Vicky Beaver, who plays the
offspring of Miss Arthur and Mr..
Bowman.
This assorted quartette was seated
at a breakfast table, with Baby
Vicky in high chair. Director
Irving Cummings, a patient soul,
knew not what he was getting into
as he cheerfully led his players
through rehearsal 1t was in the
middle of the second practice ses-
sion that Baby Vicky clouded up
and began to squall. She just re-
fused to get in the mood with all
those strange faces around the
breakfast table. Choice morsels of
food failed to tempt her, and she
responded negatively to baby-talk
attention.
*4
Lets ignore her" said Director
Cummings, who has reared three
children OF his own. II know their
reactions. Let's just hold conver-
sation among ourselves. She's bound
to run down sooner or later"
The breakfast table threesome
started to chatter. Discussion of
everything from gin rummy to the
war had no effect on Vicky's pyro-
technics. When conversation began
to wear thin, Miss Arthur started
to recite nursery rhymes, address,
ing them to Mr.. Bowman, who
looked startled. The yowling went
down one point.
When Miss Arthur broke down,
Bowman carried on with a few
more that she had forgotten. The
howiing went up half a point.
A two-point downward trend was
registered by Coburn's imitation of
Chimpanzee, and still another
point was scored with his reper-
toire of English music-hall ballads.
Now we're getting somewhere" )"
Cummings whispered excitedly.
Have everything ready to roll on a
moments notice"
The big moment came about three
minutes later. Roll EN-" yelled
Cummings. Vicky was by now COM
pletely run down.
Everything was in place. Cum
mings called action" The dialogue
sparkled. Miss Arthur dipped a
spoon into the baby's cereal to start
feeding her-an important part of
the action. But the scene was never
finished.
Kill it," yelled Cummings. in
great disgust. "Lunch-one hour"
Vickie had worn herself out. She
had topped her display of tempera-
ment by falling asleep.
