NEW YORK, May 24. dozens of popular songs of recent years have a-chance to live, particularly in s. day when constant repetition of a catchy tune can kill it i a week? A tentative answer was given the other night when American composers put on a show for tte benefit of the Author's-league fund, and Incidentally at the same time probably allayed curiosity as what they considered their own best tunes. "Sweet Adeline," "School Days," "Under the Bamboo Tree," and other songs of yesteryear still have the power to thrill, not only the barber shop chord boys, but a sophisticated- audience in. evening dress has become accustomec to the suaver melodies and more intricate rhythms of later day composers, the show revealed.

Whoop Up Chorus. When Harry Armstrong anibled out on the stage, his fatherly face wreathed in smiles, and struck the opening chord of Adeline, the audience cheered, and then whoopee up the chorus till the proverbial rafters rang. Gus Edwards, also playing his own music, found that "School Days," still was popular, while J. Rosamund Johnson, squat, dusky and smiling, learned that plenty of his auditors knew not only the tune but the words of his song about the bamboo tree 'and could sing them lustily. Applause, for Moderns.

There was plenty of applause, for the moderns, including George Gershwin, who selectee "I've Got Rhythm," with variations as his contribution.

Cohan, long a song writer, produced a brand new tune something about he'd rather write a song than be president, but it was to the strains of "Over There," that the house went wild and sent George Into a few of the famous Cohan- esqut steps of his song and dance days.
