A large group of intent listeners gathered around his piano in Bowen Hall. A few blocks away the Allan Hancock Auditorium was filled for the piano recital of Jan Haraszthy. Preceding the anaiysis of Beethoven's "Eroica" symphony, Bruno Walter answered questions sent in by an earnest young man who wants to be a conductor. He was answered out of the rich life experience of this revered philosopher-musician. MUCH DISCUSSION There was the discussion of memorizing scores or not, of using a baton or dispensing with it and of the essential requirements for being a conductor.

Bruno Walter evidently believes with the great Russian stage director, Stanislavsky, that any expression must be two-thirds inner light and one-third outer, or, as he terms it, the material action is a small part of the resulting music. He uses a baton because only with the delicate and sensitive point of the stick does he arrive at that exact precision of beat that is all-desirable. Having been blessed with a good memory and short sight, he does not often use a score but he declares interpretation is not influenced one way or the other. No conductor can possibly conduct a score well until he knows it so thoroughly that he is identified with it and has become one with the intention of the composer. Whether he uses the score for performance or not is a matter of little importance.

OTHER TOPICS As the essentials of conducting, he spoke of absolute pitch, a joy in making music that trancends all others and colors and en- livens one's existence so that life without it is insupportable Well Presented Young Jan Haraszthy played notable Liszt and Schumann 'for the first half of this concert list and three Chopin numbers well contrasted with a finale of Ravel's "Ondine," Scriabine's "Two Preludes" and Debussy's "Fireworks." He has tone that is enjoyable, sensitive musical feeling and a gift for painting in pastels. The Liszt Variations on a Theme by Bach and Schumann "Carnival" preceded the intermission and sent his appreciative audience i prumeiiaue in uie comion lobby. of chainS new hull riraiwincr Virvi Ior tne fagrant henabine also There is an affinity between the pianist and these two that I do not feel exists now in his playing of Debussy.

Elsa Maxwell, who made such beautiful Hollywood speeches for one Presidential candidate, is now campaigning back east for the other. Is there lack of harmony in the John Garfield menage?

LAUGH OF THE WEEK: Stu Erwin tells the silly about the race-track fan who got odds of 1,000.000 to one on a bangtail which had finished last, miles back, in 50 consecutive races. But on this particular day, the horse leading the race stumbled, fell, and piled up all the other nags in the race all, that is, except the terrific longshot which plodded home a winner. "Just my luck," moaned the gambler as he collected his $2,000,000 winnings, "the first time the old crowbait ever won, and me with only two bucks on him!" Preview Nights Pic of the week: Paramount's "Arise My Love," which is zesty comedy-drama if censors don't chew it up. Ray Milland "arises" to top other performances "The Great Dictator" is causing more pro and con arguments than the Presidential election, with this reviewer frankly con.

It looks, therefor, as if Donlevy will do the picture following "The American Vagabond," which is the life of 0. Henry. In this Donlevy is to portray Al Jennings. "Dance Hall" was once designed for Spencer Tracy, it seems, but "The Great McGinty" helped to put Donlevy in line for the engagement.

They each have an oftispring in tow.

Papa Morgan is in a pickle, but through the machinations of his oldest daughter, her boy friend, and various other parties, he becomes a hit on the radio and troubles vanish. The way he does it is to pretend that Clark Gable, Spencer Tracy, Mickey Rooney, lledy Lamarr and Claudette Colbert are going to appear on his broadcast, then imitates their voices himself. Through artful dubbing of the stars voices (thevre all co-workers, you know,) the il lusion is perfect. He even does a complete scene from "Boom Town."
