NEW YORK, Nov. 22.-Maj. Ed
ward Bowes, whose life of retire.
ment has been interrupted at least
twice weekly in recent months by
reports that he was dead, is alive
and very much SO, he'd like every
one to know.
The network amateur hour, which
was conducted by Maj. Bowes for
more than a decade, has been on
the air for eight months. Rumors
that Mr.. Bowes was dead, some of
them intimating suicide, have
reached New York from the Mid
west. How they started no one seems
to know.
Abner Gsldstone, Maj. Bowes' at

Marshall 10 Retire,
Without Plans, 10
arm al Leesburq

General OF the Army George C.
Marshall, who has relinquished
duties as Chief Of STAFF Of the Army
will retire in about four months
with the rank of a four-star general
at $1,000 a year.
The War Department. in announc-
ing this last night, said his former

become Acting Chief of Staff pend
ing the swearing in of General OF
the Army Dwight D. Eisenhower.
Gen. Marshall, 1t was said, will
take the maximum terminal leave
allowed under the law, which is 12o
days. While retirement calls for a
reduction of one grade in rank, it is
possible Congress may soon pass a
pending bill providing for the re-
tirement of the present five-star
generals-M MARSHALL, Eisenhower
Douglas Macarthur and H. H.
Arnold-at five-star rank in recog-
milton of Wal services.
Gen. Marshall will retire to his
farm near Leesburg, Va, where he
expects to make his permanent resi-
dence. He announced through the
War Department that "he has no
plans, no intention of going into
any business or profession"
It is probable that Gen. Eisen-
hover will take over the duties of
Chief of Staff within the next "a
hours. He was to testify at a con-
gressional hearing today.
Gen. Joseph T. McNarney. who
has been in the United States since
October 20, will leave for Frankfurt,
Germany, late this week. He sue
ceeds Gen. Eisenhower as command
ing general of the American forces

BY ALICE EVERSMAN

Transportation dificulties and
rainy weather affected only slightly
the size of the audience last night
at the National symphony concert
but only a few vacant seats being
noticeable. The usual gala atmos-
phere prevailed and it was in this
setting that the highly gifted Czech
pianist, Rudolf FirkuSny, appeared
as soloist, scoring a tremendous sue
cess in the Brahms Concerto in d
Minor"
Predominating in his performance
was the lovely quality of tone and
the poetic feeling that grasped every
opportunity for strong contrast with
the general dramatic tension of the
work. The technical and interpre-
tive requirements of this concerto
are massive and the virtuosity and
muSicianship of Mr.. Firkusny shone
in brilliant light and with unabat-
ing vigor from start to finish. The
powerful character of the first
movement was stated with convic-
ton, only the natural mellowness Of
his tone keeping it from the COM
plete fierce passion that the COM
poser intended.
Mr.. Firkusny's finger dexterity is
strong and dashing and his playing
Of the octave trills in the first move
ment was crisp and clean in spite of
their weightiness. The tenderness
and thoughtful spirit of the Adagio
was beautifully portrayed and here
the expressive tone he commands
was fully in evidence.
BY means of a wide range of
dynamics skillfully applied, tech
nical mastery brilliant and strong
and fine emotional instinct, the
artist held his listeners spellbound
through the lengthy work and was
rewarded with the ovational char
acter of the applause at the end.
The orcheStra's selections were
limited to two-Dag Wiren's "Ouver-
ture Joyeuse" and Rimsky-Korsa-
koff's suite, "Scheherazade." Sew
eral of Wiren's works have been
played previously by the symphony
but the American premiere given

AS Symptoms Solo Artist

his overture last night disclosed one
of those choice numbers that
frightened up program and set an
audience in happy mood. It has
charming melody that comes and
goes in a tantalizing manner and
is the kind. one sings to ones self
unconsciously afterwards. 1t Is a
smooth bit Of writing that grows
freely under the inspiration of a
delightful tune.
The rich tapestry of the "Shehera-
zade" suite is one in which to ap-
preciate the fine quality Of the or
chestfa ensemble and its fiexibility
in descriptive playing. The per-
formance was outstanding in its
colorfulness and several of the ex-
pert instrumentalists of the orches-
ira were heard in solo passages
headed by Jan Tomasow, concert
master, whose beautiful tone created
a special effect in the Scheherazade
theme.

Lower Navy Scores
Will Make 10000
|EIiqibIe for Release

Progressive cuts In the Nayy's
point score, making 10000 addi-
tional enlisted men eligible for re-
lease, will go in effect next month
and on January /.
The Navy previously had an
nounced plans to lower the critical
score but the new reductions 60 be-
yond that announcement. The de-
partment late yesterday issued this
schedule for enlisted men:
Most enlisted men with 80 points
will be eligible for release December
/. The score will be lowered to 81
on December Is and to So on Janu-
ary !.
Previously, the Navy planned to
drop the score from the present IL
to 80 on December and to 38 on
January 1.
Score for WAVES Unchanged.
Certain specialists such as key
punchers and shore patrolmen are
not affected by the changes. In
addition, no reduction of scores be-
yond those previously announced for
December / and January will be
made for enlisted men in the follow
ing ratings:
Water tenders and machinists
mates, except those in the Seabees
chief commissary stewards and ships
cooks and bakers.
The Navy said no further reduc-
ton of critical scores for WAVES
were made at this time because
their demobilization is ahead of
schedule.
Vice Admiral Louis E. Denfeld,
chief of naval personnel, said the
Navy's rehabilitation schedule calls
for the release of approximately
1,200,0 900 by January l. The half
way mark in demobilization will be
reached by February when more
than 100000 naval officers and
enlisted men will have been released,
he added.
Army Schedule Protested.
Meanwhile, the Army received
another Capitol Hill protest on its
demobilization schedule when Sen
ator Lucas. Democrat, Of Illinois

Unions
Develop
Recreation

In a recent issue of Common
Sense" the charge was made
that unions had overemphaSized
their recreational programs and
that some of them were top
heavy with sports.
Local IL officers answering
the charge say that it is tho
belief of the union that the or
ganization should give its mem
bers every possible type of rec
reational activity within reason.
Sports have been sponsored by
the Local in baseball, basketball,
softball, bowling and other types
of recreation.
1t is not sufficient to merely
give the workers the usual
activities for which the organ
ization exists according to the
officers of Local IL, but as
means become available, sports
programs should be added which
will give the members greater
opportunities within their union.
Local IL teams have always
placed high in competitive sports
and have reflected considerable
prestige upon the union and
the members of the various
teams.
Not only are sports and re-
creational opportunities fostered
by the Local, but a budget has
been created for the promotion
of this phase of activity. Instead
of contracting the Local IL re-
creational program, plans are
being made to expand it and to
include many other types of
sport under the direction of the
recreational director.
Local IL is making every eff
fort to provide its members with
a wide variety of programs as
justified by the financial condi-
ton of the union and to provide
its members with constantly in
creasing opportunities for find
ing interests within the or"
ganization.

Q-Is it proper to insert the

to "hook" the thumb and finger

of a standard three-tights pitch,
the thumb is sunk bit beyond

Q-Is it advisable to chang

tiating the No. 10 pin on an
across-alley shot than in the or
binary delivery for a strike?
A-Hanging onto Gripping
tightly the ball is not approved
because it tends to develop an
arm push instead of a swing.
The push may easily work itself
into the regular strike ball de-
livery. In shooting the Nol 10,
it is best to apply the ordinary,
full, mad natural arm swing, reg
ulating the action of the ball by
"angle" and possibly by reduc-
ing or adding a little speed, de-
pending on the condition of the
alley surface-whether or not it
is polished.

on the ball?
A-Gripping tightly or pinch
ing ball is an unnatural ac-
ton and is not recommended.
Q-When waiting for the ball
to return from alley pit, is there
a standard rule that good bowl
ers follow with reference to
picking it off of the rack?
A-Good bowlers are always
considerate of all other bowlers.
A good bowler waits until his
ball has come to rest, or to a
stop, on the rack, and does not
lift it from the rack until the
runway is clear for further ac-
ton. A good bowler is par
ticularly careful not to bend far
over the return rack in picking
up the ball because this may

Q-Is it a general tendency to
speed up the delivery when
tired, and is that the best thing
to do?
A-That is the tendency, but
it is contrary to what should be
done. Our advice is to lengthen
the stride. BY doing so, the arm
swing is heightened and greater

Observe the following helpful
tips:
Don't use too much speed. A
we'll directed slow ball will
knock down more pins than a
fast, crashing ball.
Try not to tighten up when
you are bowling at a difficult
spare or split. Relax, so that you
may deliver the ball freely and
accurately.
Always observe the foul line
in practice.
Don't use magnesia-or any
other foreign substance such as
resin, aristol, or plain white
chalk-on your hands. 1t should
not be necessary if your ball fits
your hand properly.
It is an established courtesy
to give the bowler on the alley
to your right the privilege of
shooting first.
Don't bend over the ball-re-
turn rack picking up your ball.
1t tends to disturb the bowler
on the next alley.
Never use more than the con-
fines of your own alley. All the
arm swinging and jumping done
after the ball is thrown will not
affect the course of the ball or
help it to knock down more pins.
Don't become discouraged be-
cause of few bad breaks.
Others get them also. Bad breaks
are part of the game. Remem-
Der the strikes which you prob
ably didn't deserve because of
a weak, shaky hit. The breaks
always average up.
Don't blame the alleys or pins
for small scores. Conditions are
the same for all rollers using
your alleys.
Watch every ball after deliver
ii to notice its course and its ac-
ton on the pins. Only by doing
this can you locate the proper
strike spot, and attain and keep
the correct angle.
When you get split, don't
throw at it carelessly. The one
or two pins you make may win
or lose a game. And all splits
can be made.
Bowling is gentleman's
game. II has no place for rowdy-
ism or unbecoming behavior.
Keep the sport above reproach
at all times.
Don't begrude the other bowl
ers good scores. Give credit, just
as you expect credit and praise
when you score well.
Don't criticize your team-mate
when things aren't going right
Be philosophical. An encourag-
ing word at the right time usual
ly does world of good.
Don't use sandpaper or metals
of any kind, especially razor
blades or files, on your cal
louses. 1t tends to crack the sur
face of the skin and cause in
