Charles I. BoIe, 81,
Injured In Accident
On U. ). Route n
Medicine Makes
Morietto Solesmon
Grossy; Hits Bridge

Charles L. Bole, 81, of Cisler
Ridge in Washington county, suf-
fered severe injuries in an auto
accident, approximately one
fourth mile of Ava, Thursday
evening at about $50 o'clock.
1t is believed by the investigat-
ing state highway patrolmen that
Bole had taken some medicine
that left him groggy while driv-
ing. At the second bridge just
north of Ava on U. S. route 81,
his automobile left the highway
on surve in the road, went over
the bank into Duck Creek, con-
tinued moving forward, with
great speed and was stopped by
the abutment of concrete
bridge.
Several onlookers came rush
ing to the scene and Bole was
fdM with his face already un-
degDWater in the car. A bottle
of medicine was found on the
car-seat beside him.
He was taken to st. Francis
hospital, Cambridge, in the Nc
Way ambulance. He is being
treated for a brain concussion, a
possible fracture of the skull
fractured breast bone, broken
nose and decorations of the head
and arms.
Had it not been for the quick
action of the men who witnessed
the accident, Bole, a salesman
for the Quaker State Oil Co.
would have drowned. He was un-
conscious until his arrival at the
hospital.
The automobile was almost de-
molished completely.

The Belmont County Girl
Scout organizations spent Friday
afternoon, June 11th, at the
Study, Home, Book Shop and
Craft Shop of Samuel Harden
Stille, near Lower Salem.
The group Of sixty two girls
was under the leadership of Mrs.
Ralph Springer of Martins Ferry
and Miss Alice Helms of Shady
side.
Five towns in Belmont county
were represented by the various
groups, Martins Ferry, Bridge
port, Bellaire, Shadyside and st.

The afternoon was spent in the
Craft Shop, Book House and
Library of the Buckeye Author
Many books were gone over, poe
try read, pictures taken and a
happy time was had by all the
group. After leaving Arlendale
the two large bus loads of Scouts
headed for Marietta where they
were booked to visit Campus
Martius, The Old Land Office
Mound Cemetery and the Rath.
bone Elm.
The idea of taking scouts and
school children out over the
country to learn history on the
spot and to visit shrines and
homes of artists and authors is
proving to be worth while ven
ture and is an excellent way of
teaching the American Way of
Life, according to Mr.. Stille.

Next to them, also in audience
territory, were the horns. And
all by themselves, on the out
skirts, were the piano and the
tuba. In Constitution Hall terms,
the tuba was about at the left
end of the orchestra pit.
The podium was in the middle

All this was. to say the least,
a little alarming.
For this sort of arrangement

UNDERSTANDABLE, that Constitu-
ton Hall would not do. The
place picked was not quite as
glamorous, perhaps. 1t was the
Holton Arms School gymnasium.
Used a Gymnasium.
We have occasionally used
this gymnasium for concerts,
and it had proved to have
excellent acoustics. It also had
a large, unencumbered floor
ideal for platforms. In addition,
we ascertained that the street
outside. Phelps place. had a
minimum of traffic.
This is where, eight days later,
we set ourselves up.

The paradox is that the two
biggest record-makers - RCA
and Colurnbia-also own radio
networks. AS long as this situa-
tion-hi-fi on the one hand
low-fi on the. other continues
1t is understandable why many
people should prefer records. and
also why many others may be
slow to realize what they are
missing.
The high fidelity boom, Of
course, carries the seeds OF its
own advancement. AS interest
grows, the public will no doubt
demand more of radio, and then
radio presumably will respond,
as the manufacturers are already
beginning to do.
The record-makers already
have set good example. Two
weeks ago the major companies
agreed on a uniform recording
and reproducing curve. greatly
simplifying the problem of the
home disc Jockey. Let us hope
more such cooperation will
follow.
The culture comes into all this

The conductor OF the Ma

describes in the foilowtn0 his
experience In producing the
orcheStrG's four netD record
tngs soon to be issued By West
minister.
I'VE are going. "Nsaid DR. Kurt
List. musical director of West
minister Recording Co., ito re-
seat your orchestra the way you
never had it before"
Then DR.. List drew a diagram,
and this was my introduction to
hi-f1.
When DR.. List. two other
Westminster officials, DR.. Maui
rice Friedman, chairman Of the
National Symphony board of d.
lrectors' recording committee. and
/ sat down last December 10 to
plan a series of recording ses-
sions. I thought / knew quite
well what was ahead.
Magnetic Tape Helps.
Nowadays, knew, the re-
placement by magnetic tape of
the old 70 rpm. master discs
had greatly simplified the actual
recording process, and I had al
ready assured orchestra mem
bers on this score. We wouldn t
have to stop every few minutes
when a side ended. If. however,
we made a mistake we would
merely stop, go back a bar or
two and start In again, and the
engineers would later splice the
tape together after neatly excis-
ing the error. And we could go
back and do bits over without
repeating the whole thing. It
would all. said. be very simple.
Then DR.. List began drawing
his diagram.
Our orchestra, as concertgoers
know. on stage is arranged in a
sort of flattened semicircle or
fan-shape. The first violins are
on my left, next to them the
celli, then the woodwinds. then
coming around on the right the

economy, however, forbade any
actual experimental recording.
At 1880 on the evening of De-
cember 2O--a Sunday-we began
our first session.
Music by Americans.
The music we had agreed upon
seemed to us appropriate. for
about half of it is American
It included two symphonies the
second and thirdly Paul
Creston, and Aaron Copland's
Appalachian Spring" Gel Salon
Mexico" Fanfare for the Com
mon Man" and BILLY the Kid"
The non-American pieces were
the Brahms violin concerto and
Shostakovich's age of Gold"
ballet and first symphony.
Julian Olevsky, a very fine 20
year-old violinist, was engaged
to be the concerto soloist.
All this will make four 12-inch
long playing records, the num-
Der we presently plan to make
yearly.
We started with the Creston
Third.
This is when we learned a
second rule of Westminster pro-
cedure. "Play straight through, :"
said DR.. List, lust as if it is
a concert" So we did, for 80
minutes.
Players Move Again.
Then I declared an intermis-
sion and went down to hear a
playback. We listened about five
minutes, and it sounded fine
except some Of the instruments
didn't come through quite enough
in places. We moved the flutes
closer to the microphone, put
John Martin, the first cellist, on
a podium right under it and had

it in the Shostakovich, which we
got to next day. .
DR.. List expressed a particu-
lar desire to hear the tam.
so we moved that closer to the
microphone. Other players
moved from time to time. too.
Tympani Misbehave.
The real trouble was with the
tympani, however. In the last
movement of the Shostakovlch
symphony Fred Begun, the tym-
PIANIST, has a solo six bars long.
or 10 notes including two trills.
The trouble was that the drum
reverberated. Fred would try to
get the pitch of D but c would
still be sounding. Fred and Frank
Sinatra mot the singer worked
Is minutes trying to dampen
the beats, with DR.. List and my
self instructing through the
intercom.
Frank finally solved it by hold
ing pieces of cloth in his fists
and placing them on the drum
while Fred beat.
A truck vexed US even more.
Just at a pianiSsino passage it
rumbled up the hill. A little later
a siren screamed past. Once, too,
a violin bow hit music stand,
also requiring a remake. These

Everything Moved. 4
The first violins had moved
bodily to the center. The second
yiolins had moved to my right,
along with the percussion. The
flutes and oboes had climbed q
platform behind the violins. The
other woodwinds had climbed a
