eifn Off. -By Edward E. Edga The Sixth War Loan drive starts tomorrow. Radio Station WGH, along with all other radio stations, will devote much of its time pro-motlne this vital drive. Henry Hull, actor of stage and screen, ma- as sume the role of narrartor in the half -hour dramatization by Ben Hecht which will open the Blue Net work's Dart in the drive at to- nieht.

Hull will share the spotlight in the war bond opener with Myrna Lov and Pranchot Tone. The ara matization. entitled 'Miracle on the Pullman." was especially written bv Hecht for this broadcast, Music will be provided by Josef Stopak's orchestra. Tomorrow the olcal station will present three programs which have been prepared by the war finance division of the treasury department, The first of these local programs presents Horace Heidt and his Musical Knights, and features inter views with returned service men, This program will be heard in the mornine from 8:45 to 9. At 6:30 p.

m. tomorrow a special musical cantata will be presented featuring the Lyn Murray Chorus with Frederic March as narrator in "The Liberation" which refers to the return of American and Filipino troups to the Philippines. This program will be followed at 6:45 p. m. by a program featuring Deems Jimmie Carroll and Davids Broekman and the Treasury orchestra in a musical show entitled "America's Music, Many- of the network's programs will originate tomorrow night from a great war bond rally at New York's huge Madison Square Gar' den.

One of the programs originating in the "Garden" will be the popular "Blind Date" show. Three movie stars Carole Landls, Betty Field, and Phyllis Brooks- will become "million dollar blind dates" for three G. I. Romeos on this program tomorrow at 8:30 p. m.

Three movie stars Carol Betty Field, and Phyllis Brooks i will become "million dollar blind dates" for three G. I. romeos on this program tomorrow at 8:30 p. m. I Six patriotic Americans have agreed to invest a million dollars each in war bonds and thus sponsor six servicemen in their competition for the blind dates.

It will be a blind, blind date fori the G. sponsors, who will not even accompany the three winners and their gorgeous blind dates to the Stork club. As is customary af- ter each Monday's broadcast of the popular radio show, the servicemen TODAY! 4 18th. STREET Vtudio tjtatic Bt Edward E. Edgar Vi I I If you like contrast, youll get plenty of It In the program to be broadcast at 3 this afternoon by the New York Philharmonic-Symphony orchestra over Columbia and WRVA.

Dr. Artur RodzinskL regu lar conductor of the orchestra, re turns to the stand, and has listed only two compositions Gustav Mahler's "Das Lied von de Erde (The Song of the Earth), and Mo- rart's "Eine Kleine 011151 (A Little Night-Music). Miss Klrsten Thorberg, contralto, and Charles Kullman, tenor, will be the vocal soloists in the Mahler composition. This number I have heard but once. A few years ago while the Radio City Music Hall program still came to us at 12:30 Sunday afternoons, Erno Rapee pre tented a Mahler cycle, performing all eight of the late Austrian-Jewish composer's symphonies and this number as well.

As has been remarked previously, one hearing is far from enough to judge adequately the Intrinsic merits of a work of this magnitude. As recall It. I was impressed relatively llttler-as, in general, 'I have been with Mahler's symphonic works. It's a peculiar sort of composition. It seemed then to leave something in me unsatisfied.

In justice to Mahler, however, I must repeat what I have said before that his Sympho ny No. 2 in C-minor is really great music. This composition has vigor ous thematic content, and it is de veloped In virile quality. The work has five movements, lasts about an hour and 20 minutes, and like Beethoven's Ninth, employs a vocal chorus In the finale. Mozart's "Nachtmusik" Is at the other extreme the simplicity of serenade, designed to please and charm rather than to reflect pas slonate emotion; a piece.

In short, of the utmost in classical form and in naievete. One thing that rubs me the wrong way Is the trouble the networks have keeping the Philadelphia Symphony orchestra, one of the topmost ones in the nation, on the air. WRVA listed it last year, it will be recalled, as a Columbia presentation: then there came some union difficulties and the contract was torn up. I believe It finally did get back before the season ended. But what about this season? A few weeks ago WRVA again listed it at p.

Saturdays. It didn't stick, some reason; and now that station lists the Navy band a fine organization, but still not the 1 Philadelphia orchestra. I'd like to know what went wrong this time. Reverting to the necessity of hearing a long orchestral work more than once to Judge it, the performance by the New York orchestra last Sunday of the D-minor violin concerto of Jean Sibelius gave me a much better opinion of it than the single previous hearing I had had. This concerto is, like Mr.

Sibelius' other orchestral works, in a class by itself. His is "just different" in form and structure, harmonic and otherwise, from traditional molds. But while it has some of the mysterious qualities that pervade his symphonies, it has a good deal less of their outstanding peculiaritynamely, of never giving a feeling of emotional satisfaction; of keeping the emotions on edge; until the last few minutes of climactic utterance. I have an idea 'that, on the basis of its musical merits. Mr.

Sibelius violin concerto is much more viable than any of his symphonies, UAMES fcajJBlitl.Ml'l ifltssn fin)- OPEN 12:45 STARTS UMCKM AM AVE. I 1 Y' Jh'TL tHTA- II t- it ft i ll I 4- mlf 1111 A em a 4rLr UcJ 17 ii ii i DOORS OPEN DAILY AT 12:4:5 P. M. line (cbs-wkva); 11:30 p. (WTAR); 12 M.
