The 81 magnificent voices that
make up the Roman Singers Of
sacred music were heard in a con-
cert at Griffith Stadium last night
before on audience that numbered
thousands. Although their Ameri-
can debut on a three-month tour
Of North and South America was
scheduled for this city, the concert
last night, sponsored by the Lido
Civic Club, was the second. The
fame Of the conductor -compos
Msgr. Licinio Ref1ce had preceded
him and the welcome, started when
the surplice-clad men and boys
crossed the field to the improvised
stage, was doubled on his appear
ance.
It was not an ideal setting for a
concert of sacred music for, although
the ampliflcation system carried the
voices to every corner, there was
need of some sort of roof to mellow
the sound. At the same time, the
size of the audience would have
taxed any of the city's halls and If
a robed choir seemed a bit incon-
gruous on the baseball diamond, the
spectacular lighting of the stadium
added to the brilliancy Of the effect.
Seldom has such an aggregation
of splendid voices been heard here.
Among them are "A boys from to
Is years of age who are so highly
trained that their sweet, pure voices
hold the balance easily against the
rich powerful bases and baritones
and the lovely lyric quality OF the
tenors. The entire group sings with
extraordinary freedom and carries
in its timber the heart-warming
power that seems to be identified
especially with the italian vocal art.
The singers were chosen from the
four great churches of Rome: st.
Peters, st. John Lateran, Santa
Maria Maggiore and the Sistine
Chapel of the Vatican. 1t was hoped
that these musicians, who carry on
the traditions established centuries
ago regarding liturgical music, would

with picturesque effects in view, he
knows how to attain them from his
picked and talented group in his
directing. The concert which be-
gan soberly had a crescendo Of in
terest to the final "Exulta ct Lauda. !"
A great deal of it was sung capella,
but in some numbers organ accom-
paniments were played by Ferruccio
Vignanelli, his performance in the
"Missa" being particularly out
standing. The sacred program was
preceded by the singing of "The
Star Spangled Banner"

BY The Associated Press

FRANKFURT, Feb. 4.--The United
States Army Air Forces in Europe
would be reduced by 1948 to l0t
fighter planes, IS transports and less
than 5000 men under a tentative
plan revealed last night by Amer
lean military sources.
These forces now consist of SOC
fighters, $50 transports and $4,000
men. Only 80 of the fighters are
jet-propelled P-80s. The rest are
all gasoline powered Pals and p
Sis, regarded by experts as obsolete
The only bomber left is an unarmeo
B-29-an administrative plane in
use in Germany.
The reduction is planned for econ
omy in the fiscal year to begin next
July l. One officer, pointing out
that the exact degree of trimming
necessary would not be known till
Congress had acted on requested ap-
propriations, added, I'VE must pre-
pare to meet any eventuality."
Officers said the contemplated
European force, lacking bombers,
would be of little military use except
perhaps to check a civilian revolt.
Some expressed hope that the fighter
force could be made entirely jet
propelled.
In line with the reduction in per-
sonnel, the air forces in Europe were
reported to be considering abolition
| of several subordinate commands to
concentrate operations at fewer
fields. At present the 18th Tactical
Command, divided into six tactical
| fighter groups, reconnaissance

group, has the fighters and the
