Walter's Final Concert Outstanding Bowl Event AND JHJB PARTI De Soto Appears in Drama at Padua As the new musical director of the Mexican Players, Ernesto de Soto, member of a pioneer family, is appearing in "Pesos Besos" or the new production at the Tadua Hills Theater. De Soto is a great-great-grandson of Don Ignacio Palomares. drama made contributions to the whole. After the Intermission announcement the engagement Boy Meets Girl on Musart Stage Boy meets girl under delightfully confused circumstances in "Two In a Bed" at the Musart Theater. The climax is preceded by some hilarious by-play.

Don Arthur enacts the male lead, and Dorothy Crider is the romantic interest. Losattgcles Cfmtr RID, JULY 30, 1943 of Frank Sinatra as a Bowl soloist, which was received with a gasp and a shocked silence, the audience heard the long, soft rise of the Prelude to Act 1 from fit i Ci CuJiH- r3 i-lif 12 5 i iVi 15 Jr. BY ISABEL MORSE JONES Bruno Walter said good-by to Southern California in Hollywood Bowl last night. Thousands of music lovers nf this community gathered there and listened. Thirstily they drank long draughts of great music, re-created for them by a master musician whose understanding of the Tschaikow-sky and Wagner work he played and whose respert for all men led him td demand the best of his players and of himself.

The Philharmonic of Los Angeles played again in the grand tradition. Salutes Orchestfa At the end of the symphony, T.schaikowskv's "Fourth," the conductor saluted the orchestra before he turned to acknowledge the bravos and applause which fang out in the Bowl. The unity and the obedience of the organization had made a glowing, exciting performance of an old and familiar work. By dint of two rehearsals only and the keen penetration which Walter brings to a score, the symphony not only had musical clarity and absolute fidelity to the compos-er. It had the further blessing of loving insight.

MyMrrjr of Art There was unbelievable spontaneity throtiffhout. The Scherzo was a graceful dancing pizzicato movement with actual resonance, not Just the sound of plucked, dead strinars. It was not only the principal characters that were brought out. The minor roles of this symphonic -a "Lohengrin." Here were healing and mystery of art. The vision of ultimate victory over evil forces slowly mounted into view a.s Wagner's Prelude swelled upward toward the black hills.

The seemingly inevitable interferences of a public in search not of beautiful but of cheap entertainment faded away for the moment and a Bruno Walter carried the music high so all could hear the voice of the spirit. 'Jtaeclianale' The concert closed with the "Bacchanale" from "Tannhau-ser" and the Prelude and Love-Death from "Trtsten and Isolde" in a performance that will ever be a part of our tomorrows. Tonight the English duo-pianists, Bartlett and Robertson, will play Poulenc's Concerto for two pianos and orchestra in minor. Poulene is somewhere in Franc? and these friends of his are unable to reach him. They have played this concerto with orchestra all over the country but this is its first performance here.

It Is gay, witty, naughty at times with French ditties and naive folksongs and has nostalgic Javanese moods that bring the gamelon orchestra to mind. fflAlSMR-MNIllNE MNK 'Heavenly Twins' let 'Olympia From Mefn Maureen O'Hara Slated for Mothrly Duties at 20th; 'Gung Ho' Stars Piked BY EDWIX SC HALLKUT Those still current "heavenly twins" of writing, purine; and directing Charles Brackett and Billy Wilder have-icqiilred a Unique screen subject which they will mutually fost; Its the Ferenc Molnar original "Olympia," produced by MetirGoldwyn-Mayer in the early audible days as "His Glorious ht" with Jack Gilbert starred, and Catherine Dale Owen as lear woman.
