Air Force Day to Be Obserued Thursday Informal Program of Events To Be
 Held Commemorating Deeds,
 Achievements of U. s. Pliers

1 Plans are being made for simple observance of Air Force Day on Thursday here, with special radio programs and store window displays to memorialize the part the Army Air Force played in the last war and to keep alive in the public mind the need for air power to pre- serve peace of the world
 It. Harry c. Rolf public rela- tions officer at the Army Recruiting Station here, is in charge of the observance. Lieutenant Rolf, a Thunderbolt pilot, flew 30 missions in the European Theater before be- ing returned to the United States to serve as instructor for fighter pilots about to leave for Europe.
 Because of the lack of nearby A.A.F. installations" said Lieuten- ant Rolf, "the observance here will necessarily have to be simple but it is the hope of the AA.F. that the public will recall and for brief moment remember with gratitude the part our Air Force played in winning the victory and shortening the var"
 Feature of the days observance will be a flight of Civil Air Patrol planes which will pass over the city several times in various formations used in the European Theater. The pilots will be briefed by Lieutenant Rolf who will map the maneuvers planned. Civil Aeronautics Admin istration regulations forbid any stunning and require flying above a specific altitude but the latter rule will not require the planes to fly so high that all will not have a good view of them.
 Ra dio Stations VERY and WATR have agreed to cooperate in the observance, Lieutenant Rolf said, with short sketches, time Of which will be announced later. Plans have been made to give brief announcements between regular programs.
 At least one of the store window displays will feature showcards in which the various formations used by the AAF in Europe and Africa will be graphically illustrated. These and other formations will be in cluded in the formations to be flown by CAP pilots of Waterbury Squadron.
 Cooperating with Lieutenant Rolf are Capt. Gerald M. Monaghan, GAP, Connecticut Wing staff; Capt. Fred w Kirschbaum, CAP, group commander in this area, and It. G.. Harry Wabuda, CAP, squadron commander,

sigh or both at the close. The Fifth Symphony cannot fail with an or chestra of superior musicians and the vast throng that filled the shed listened breathlessly to the per- formance, the lovely cantabile pas sages, from the start to the coda and grand chorus of the brasses, woodwinds, strings in the swift paced conclusion.
 Dr. Koussevitzky Dominates
 Dr. Koussevitzky in his usual brown for afternoon returned to the stage again and again after each piece, accepting with poise and pleasure the applause for just one of group of distinguished concerts of the festival that opened last week and which comes to a close Sunday afternoon, August Il. The Thursday night concert this week opens Brahms week. The series concludes Sunday afternoon, August Il with Thompson's The Testament of Freedom" for mems voices with orchestra, and Beethoven's Ninth with Festival Chorus. "~ In the Berkshires setting Sunday afternoon the weather was perfect, cool in the shade, the sky clear and the hills surrounding clearly etched, the nearby lake shining in the sun of noon and afternoon, and the lovely countryside something to see by those driving cars from practical ly every state of the country, all of them finding easy parking space. There could easily have been ten thousand at the Festival-M. M.
