Evening star., 1950-10-05

Como's career came to him here
in We shington. This is where he
joined the orchestra of Ted
Weems now playing at the Statler
Embassy Room. Mr.. Weems then
was playing on the stage of the
Warner Theater and it then was
the Earle Theater. He remembers
that Perry came directly from the
train to the theater and imme-
diately was called out to sing a
couple OF songs. Mr.. Weems also
remembers, with juStifiable pride,
that his first introduction of Como
to audience that afternoon in 1884
included the prediction of great
future for this talented young
man.
Mr.. Como travelled with the
WeemS band for two years after
that and you can take your choice
of bioeraphers as to his reason for
leavine. Both were employed by
the National Broadcasting Co., but
apparently they never met. One

By Harry Macarthur

One of the things you may not
know about Dwight Fiske is that
he started out in the music busi-
ness as d serious young man bent
upon the composition of solid,
non-frivolous, music. This infor-
nation is pertinent today mas
much as Mr.. Fiske is due to return
to these parts tomorrow for
limited engagement to inaugurate
the fall season at the Sazerac
Room of the Old New Orleans.
Last season Mr.. Fiske launched
the Latin Quarter at the same spot
with furry of business such as
it never saw before. And never
saw later, for that matter. He is
expected to keep things hectic
around the Old New Orleans this
trip, to. Mr.. Fiske is a popular
man around this town, so you'd
better make some advance ar
rangelnenC with the ONO. man
agement instead of wandering
around there and hoping to find
a vacant table.
To get back to that business
about serious music, Mr.. Fiske
swears it's all true. He also says,
no matter what you have been
thinking all these years about the
content of his songs-leerics?-
that his music is responsible for
so pei cent of the effect of his
numbers, Supplies drama and
excitement to the words" says Mr.,
FisKe
One OF the big moments in Mr..
Fiske's life, he will tell you, was
that Ole when the Boston SYM
phony Orchestra played a waltz
he composed.
Another big moment, one which
had a profound effect on his life
and which probably is celebrated
annually by Dwight Fiske fans,
was the one when the late Marie
DRESSER asked him to perform in
a benefit show. That was in Paris,
where ne then was regarding him
self as & serious musician with a
hobby. He had no notion that the
hoony would turn out to be the
hing that rather emphatically has
kept him from starving to death.
Tallulah Bankhead heard him
at that benefit, though. and made
{ London supper club hire him.
Miss Rankhead was a big woman
around London in those days and
Mr.. Fiske's professional career as
a singer OF sophisticated. or dirty,
songs was launched. He has been
living well off that wayward stur-
geon ever since.

The Midnight Merry Go Round:

GuerriIIas Fight Reds,
Soviet Deserter SAYS
BY the Associoisd Press

BERLIN. June l0.-A Soviet
Army deserter told the British to-
day that a guerrilla war is being
fought against Soviet rule In the
Caucasus Mountains.
The deserter is 24-year-old
Sergt. Mikhain Amurkmanovich
Kuratsyev. who fed from the
Soviet occupation forces in East
Germany two weeks ago after re-
turning from home leave in Russia.
Authorities in the British zone,
where Kuratsyev sought protec-
ton as political refugee. said
they would refuse to send him
back.
Kuratsyev identified the noun
tain rebels as survivors of the
Chechen and Ingushi peoples who
had been deported from their
southern mountain homeland to
Siberia in 1914.
A main reason for Kuratsyey's
desertion, the British reported
was 1.-The crimes and violence
against the minority peoples In
his country by the Soviet regime. ,
His home is only S miles from the
border Of the former Chechen-
Ingush Autonomous Republic
whose Moslem inhabitants were
deported en- masse.

Hot under the collar for 80
years, Salvation Army workers
won't have to be mopping their
brows from the heat much longer.
Instead, they'll be mopping
them in relief. For the first time
since the Salvation Army donned
uniforms around 1872, it's chang
ing the design-from the old
fashioned Prussian-type with the
high, stiff, sweltering collar to the
modern lapel brand.
We've been agitating for new
uniforms for the last Is years, "
warmly observed Maj. George
Ribble. He spoke from within the
sticky confines of the old-fash-
ioned high collar. "
In public, regulations say those
high collars must stay buttoned,
no matter what the thermometer
advises. Like all regulations,
though, confessed Mai. Ribble,
this one is often blinked at and
winked at.
Besides being a boon to the
sweat glands, the new kind of
uniform has other important ad-
vantages - it's lighter both in
weight and color, and it costs a
lot less than the old type. Author
lied about nine months ago, the
new uniforms are now coming
off the assembly line and already
are appearing in various cities
throughout the country.
The old uniforms-all wool
were all tailor made and cost
about SOS. Tailor made, the new
ones cost $45, but they're also
being put out in stock form, at
$3.50. The new garb is also made
of cooler rayon mixture.
OF the new brand, the only one
being sported in Washington is
that of Capt. AL Osborne. director
of the Evangeline residence at
Thirteenth and L streets NV.
Maj. Ribble's is on the way, he
said with obvious relief.
The old kind of uniform has
been worn in all 80 countries and
colonies served by the Salvation
Army, except India. There, work
erS are allowed to don native dress
as the single concession to heat.
Until now.

PARIS, June i0.-The high fash

and all, are going on the assembly
line.
Five of the top fashion houses,
where royal ladies and million
aires wives rub shoulders to pay
four figure sums for gowns, have
struck a deal to put their frocks

The five big names OF the fash
ion world who are going into the

The scheme. due to be in oper-
alton next month. was devised by

Under the plan. each of the
given designers will contribute
