Radio Notes

Two Of the most memorable
broadcasts Of recent radio history
were those presented by the Old
Vic Theater on WTOP-CBS. These
outstanding performances were
Richard III and Peer Gynt and
were OF course done by an all
British cast. However, information
from the network informs us that
there was one American in the
cast for Peer Gynt; Donald Balm.
animal imltator. Balm was two
eagles off in the distance; the hog,
and the leading troll voice. Now.
OF course, no one has ever heard
troll, so Balm gave out with that
which what might be expected of
such a character-a combination of
crickets, birds, gulls, angered crows
and bowling dogs. OF such is
superb production made.

 At OPA's request, Steelman is preparing for Presidents Truman's approval 6 list of items which the Administration plans to keep under control as long as possible.

 The spokesman said wage con- trols would be covered by Steel mans directive and ''wills be swept away to the same extent that price controls are removed"
 Steelman's advisory board has recommended to MT. Truman that all wage controls be removed ex- cept in eases where higher wages would mean added cost to the Gov ernment.
 Meantime OPA announced e IS percent price increase on some types Of industrial rubber products, an II percent increase on loom woven flax carpets. and e per- cent boost in the ceilings on many durable rayon fabrics. Steelman reportedly was tlndecid- ed whether to decontrol building materials.

Vets Wife Shoots Self In Chest
Suicide Attempt Mode in Kinssbury Hotel RestouFont

Thirty-t -three-year-old Ge1aevieve Campbell, wife of piano-playing ex- Army Capt. John Campbell of the Kingsbury Hotel, was on the danger list at st. Mary's Hospital today as doctors probed for Q .26-caliber bsll- let in her chest.
 Mrs. Campbell, cashier at the Melody Lane Restaurant, shot her- self as she sat alone in @ booth shortly after closing time today. In the restaurant at the time, cleaning up, were her husband who plays the piano in the orchestra, and Henry Mevers. proprietor and Army buddy oS Campbell. Inspector Joseph R. Bender said Campbell gave his wife the gun, c war souvenir, when he returned from duty in Europe. Questioned by Inspector Bender, CountyACoroner William P. Jones, Jr,, and County Investigator Thomas Laden, Mrs. Campbell ad- mitted that she inflicted the wound. She told investigators, however, that sine could not account for her action.
 Setting the scene for tnvestiga- LOTS, JIle WO4hhnAA D AAueAs@AlA ~s-@NA is subject to a chronic heart ale ment. He said the three were alone in the restaurant when ne walked past the booth and saw his wife was in distress. He said ne thought she had had an attack. and immediately stepped into a phone booth to summon an aznpu- lance.
 When he returned to the booth, he said his wife was walking in the hallway of the Hotel Kingsbury. She was taken to the hospital in the police ambulance where her condition was described as grave.
 The couple, who came to Water bury two months ago from Lake George where MT. Campbell had q booking, are from upper New York state.
 Police explained the absence of noise accompanying the shooting because of the small oaliber of the weapon and the fact that the woman held the gun close to her body when she pulled the trigger.

KesseIring, Major Nozis Face TrioI
 Fascist LeodeFs
 Also Co Be Tried |.
 In ltcIion Courts

Rome, Nov. 6 - CUP) -- Field Marshal Albert von Kesseiring one of Adolf ffitler's ablest tacticians, will head the list of major Maxi ofn- cers to be tried for alleged war crimes in Italy.
 Kesselring reportedly has been transferred from Britain to Ger. many in preparation fer the Italian trials. Latest reports indicate that he will not be charged with res- ponslbility for the Ardeatine caves massacre of S35 Italian civilians, but will be indicted for alleged atro- cities in north Italy.
 Lk.-Gen. Kurt AEaeltzer, former Nan commander in Rome. and Col. Gen Ehsrhard xon Mackensen. former occupation commander in central Italy, will be tried Nov. IS for the Ardeatine atrocities.
 The two German generals are charged with ordering the massacre in reprisa1 for the bomb-killing of g Nax SS. Troopers. The Ardea- tine caves are on the outskirts of Rome. The massacre reportedly oc- cured in March, 1924.
 Italian officials also are speeding plans for the trials of former native Fascists accused of various murders, atrocities and war crimes.
 The most important of these trials will open Dec. II before an emergency court of assizes in Rome. Six important supporters of the late Il Duce will be tried for the 1924 murder of the Socialist leader Gia- como Matteotti. They include Fran cesco Giunta, former undersecre- tary of interior. and Cesare Rossi, one-time vice-secretary of the Fas- cist Party.
 Whether Mussolini himself order ed the Matteotti murder was never discovered, but it was an open secret at the time that the crime was com- mitted on instructions from Gio- vanni Marinelh, former administra- tor of the Fascist Party. Marinelli later was executed by the Fascists as a traitor. He was one of l9 mem- bers of the grand council who voted against Mussolini in the historic council meeting of July 25, 1924.
 Matteotti's murder provoked vio- lent anti-Fascist demonstrations and threatened, for 6 time, to cause Mussolini's downfall.
