DashinS Basso BY LOUIS BERG

The Younger set takes over
the Met when PIMA swaggers
out in doublet and hose
eeDEAR Mr.. PIMA: If had picture
IL of you | would place it where |
could gaze at it morning and night. do not
say noon because am at school at noon"
Ezio PIMA, now on singing tour through
out the United States, is the Metropolitans
mainstay "the greatest basso since De
Reszke and Chaliapin." He gets about $50
fan letters per week like the one above,
mostly from youngsters. They knit sweaters
for him and send flowers. 1t is all very en-
barrassing to a reserved soul like MIR. Pima.
Fair Question
WHAT's Swoonatra got that you haven't
got?" correspondent demanded indignant
ly. That's fair question. Mr.. Pinza in his
ffties, is still handsome man. He is unique
in the basso line, where the beer barrel sets
the waistline standard. Over six feet TALL
he's built like prize fighter. His profile
would do credit to a Roman medallion.
Bassos are character actors rather than
romantic leads And Pinza's classic profile
is often marred by putty nose, his features
buried under huge whiskers.
But youngsters have field day when he
appears as Don Juan, in Mozart's Don
Giovanni" Although the Met" is staid
Evening star., 1946-06-23

institution and swooning or jumping in the
aisles is discouraged, nothing can suppress
the gasps of feminine delight when Pima
swaggers out in doublet and hose.
Pima, Injured to the tributes of crowned
heads and music critics, finds it disconcert-
ing, at his age, to be competing for the in
fant trade. His wife will sometimes remind
him to acknowledge his worshipers. 'Ezio,
don't you remember? This is the nice little
girl who gave you the family cough remedy
when you had that bad cold" Pima will
bow and say: "A-a-ah!"
Pima is married to the former Doris Leak,
an American girl whom he met backstage
at the Metropolitan She was ballerina,
but has since retired to raise family, which
consists today of Celia, aged four, and Ezio
Peitro, aged two. They live in converted
punlice mill in Mamaroneck, N. Y.
A bike racer, carpenter, bakers appren-
tice and railroad f1agman in his youth, Pima
is handy man around the house. He gar
dens, makes repairs, and built with his
own hands an outdoor fireplace. Clelia's
doll house is also his handiwork.
Like most people who enjoy puttering,
Pima is an even-tempered man. He has
been guilty of only one temperamental out
burst in 20 years at the Met. That was when
he was getting ready for his debut and the
sight of Gatti-Casazza' s red suspenders dur
ing rehearsal made him nervous.
Get off the stage, he yelled at the Nets
director "You are only the boss downstairs
not here. Go back to your Office ~
No one had ever talked that way before
to Gatti-Casazza. But to everyone's sur
prise he obeyed meekly.
Rolling Stone
For all of his mldness, Pima has an un-
shakeable faith in his own destiny. The fate
of singing was born in me-" he says. His
birthplace was Ravenna, Italy, where he
grew up tall, straight and strong, like the
famous pines of that region. So he was
apprenticed to trades demanding firm mus
ces and broad back But he stuck to
none. "Ezio, Ezio," the neighbors Knocked,
when will you make up your mind?"
Il don't know" the boy would answer
solemnly Il have only the feeling that some
day will do something so that when walk
in the street people will turn and say:
There is Pinza!"
Today, when Pima walks in the street,
people turn and say: There is PIMA"

Rabbi Requests Church in Poland

Warsaw, Aug. IS - (UP) - Chief Rabbi Isaak Herzog of Palestine ap- pealed today to the Catholic Church in Poland ito rise to the heights in it's ethical duty and fight against the anti-Semitism now rampant in Poland"
 The leader of Zion Jewry said it would be an historic act of callous- ness to expect the sorrowing rem nants of an unprecedented slaughter to attempt to reconstruct an epoch of a thousand years amidst the graveyard of 6,000000 of their breth- ren.
 The world owes a debt to these shattered few living in fear day and night to redeem them and allow them to rebuild their lives in the land of their hopes" he declared.
 Herzog said of the 80,OOO Jews who probably will remain in Poland that they live only in fear and loneli- ness"
 Anti -SemitiSm is not incurable but one never knows how long it will last" he said. These wretched people cannot be expected to see if the murderous tides will change"

Lie Hopes LIN Can Convene On Schedule

New York, Aug 15-(UP)-Secre- tary General Tryve Lie of the United Nations today expressed the hope that the LIN General Assembly would meet as scheduled Sept. 23, but some officials were certain that the nce-postponed session at Flushing Meadow would be delayed again.
 Lie said in his first news confer ence since returning from f1ve-week trip to Europe that he would be very sorry if there was another delay" of the meeting, which orig inaliy was set for Sept. 3 and post poned 20 days because of the Paris peace conference
 The tagging pace of the Paris barley. however, has convinced some officials that major statesmen of some of the natinos in the LIN would still be occupied with peace conference problems on Sept. 8.
 T still think there is no reason to reach any conclusion about an- other postponement," Lie said That does not exclude the poSSi- bility of an adjournment of the peace conference (so the assembly may convene on time) or postpone ment of the assembly"
 Lie pointed out that the states men in Paris still have a month to work on peace treaties for Italy, Finland and Germany's Balkan satellites, and sometimes inter national conferences can close dis cussions in week, although 1t has seemed impossible"
 Lie expressed dissatisfaction with the idea of postponing the Sept. B meeting. Even if most first string diplomatic personnel of European countries were still in Paris.
 He emphasized that such long planning and timing" had gone into preparations for the assembly ses- sion that another postponement would be extremely bothersome.
 We must remember, too," he said, that the United Nations con- sists of some other nations besides those in Paris; the United Nations is a big organization.
 Peace treaties are important. too, so I accepted the first postpone ment"

 The hotels said they duped by the American Firsters, who gather ed for a meeting of "Independent Republicans of the Midwest" in- stead Of the regular Republicans expected by the hotels.

 Smith Keeps Hidden
 All available squads in the Loop area raced first to the Stevens Ho- tel, then to the Morrison Hotel. where Smiths followers had gone when the Stevens management can celed the meeting.
 Through it all, Smith remained carefully in the background, and it was not until later that he tele- phoned from his suite at another hotel to denounce "gangsters and Jewish terrorists" who he said had interfered with the meetings.
 Smiths rally originally had been booked for the Stevens under the name of the Independent Repub- licans of the Midwest he was called off after the hotel manage ment learned the nature of the gathering. Hotel spokesmen said they wished to avoid any damage from a possible riot.
 billings Take Over Persons expecting to attend the meeting were sent back to the ho- tel lobby by a special detail of 30 uniformed police. At almost the same time, pickets of the protest ing groups appeared on the scene. Then, in swept Mrs Dilling, in flamboyant green dress, accom- panied by her son. Kirk, 26, and former husband, Albert w. Dilling
 You weren't invited here" she shouted at Jewish war veteran holding a picket sign. You've got synagogue to sit in-go sit in it!"
 Her ex-husband exchanged a few wild swings with one of the pickets, and police hustled the party of in a taxicab.
