AH-GirI Orchestra
Shows Talent Galore
In Benefit Here
By Alice Eversmon

The Hour of Charm All-Girl
Orchestra with Phil Spitalny as
its leader and master of cere-
monies returned to Constitution
Hall last night for a concert to
aid the Exchange Club charities
and activities fund with special
emphasis on an opportunity
program for the National Train
ing School for Boys In spite of
the worthy cause and the amount
Of glitter, pulchritude and talent
on the stage, the audience was
small.
Off to ROusing Start.
Mr.. Spitalny soon got his musi-
clans and singers in the mood and
the program started off with a
rousing delivery by all concerned
Of "The Battle Hymn of the Re
public" Then came Gloria of
the fabulous high tones who in
terpolated quite a number of
them in her singing of selections
from "The Merry Widow" and
outdid Lily Pons ct al in the
variations on Listen to the Mock
ing Bird" Janet and her trumpet
had round of applause for some
clean triple tongueing and there
was considerable clamor raised
by Viola and her collection of
drums which she beat in animated
rhythms with incredible swiftness.
Group Well Trained.
The entire group is snappiiy
trained and precision itself in the
effects Mr.. Spitalny seeks. These
are noisy for the most part and, in
Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue, :"
quite blotted out the fine piano
performance of Louise in the en-
semble. In the solo portions she
shone and also in the first move
ment of Tschaikowsky's Con
certo in B fiat Minor" but here
again the jazzy treatment in the
arrangement was uppermost.
Jeanie lent her contralto voice
to a very soulful performance of
Porter's Might and Day" and tried
the same effect, not so success
fully. with Schubert's "Ava Maria"
The All-Girl Choir joined in with
some pretty brassy singing and
stood with bowed heads as Jeanie
brought it to strange but sup
posedly reverential ending. Joanne,
another bird-like singer, and the
glamorous Evelyn "and her Magic
Violin" starred in the second half
of the program.
Brass Players Skilled.
The brass players are skilled
musicians and the modest little
harpist made herself evident quite
frequently in the ensemble. The
violinists play with their eyes on
Spitalny and get good results as
does the hard-Working double
bass player. The whole assembly
is charming to look at, beautifully
dressed in bespangled gowns and
animated in performance. It
seemed, however, as if they should
have had more fun in what they
were doing. Instead there was
feeling of tension. Perhaps that
would lift if Mr.. Spitalny could
sparkle a bit himself and inject
q little humor into his M. Ceeing.
He is very sober fellow to be sur
rounded by so much youth and
beauty.
