Music with a Message
Father, mother and sweetheart of the 17-
» piece New Arts Sinfonictta, the talented orches-
A tra which will play at the Abraham Lincoln
jUjM school concert course, beginning November 17,
is LEO KRAKOW, bright young Juilliard school
graduate who played with the Washington, D.
C. and the Grand Rapids symphony orchestras.
The Sinfonietta will play three of four con-
MR certs at Kimball Hall in a series which will
■ V trace the "Living Content of Jlusic” from sym
■ ■ phony to jazz. Leo thinks of the series as help
W V ing to break down current musical prejudices.
— M * “Musicians knbw that the talk about classical
music being opposed to jazz and to other mu
sical forms is so much hocus-pocus. An intelligent listener can en
joy all forms of music. We are taking this non-acadamic approach
4n the series.’’
"And the caliber of the musician”, he added, “will in itself be
a powerful indictment of the monopoly booking system in this
country, which attempts to feature only prominent musicians while
v the others are pushed into the background.”
Veterans' pageant
JANICE KINGSLOW, who succeeded HILDA SIMMS as “Anna”
in the Chicago company of Anna Lucasta will appear in the Jewish
War Veteran's pageant “The Unknown Soldier Speaks” at the Chi
cago Stadium, November 18. HARRISON GAINES who starred in
Stevedore, will play the part of the Negro veteran.

Exodus
UOPWA members waved a fond farewell to chem instructor
JACK SHAW and wife BARBARA, chapter chairman of the Social
Service Division, last week, when they departed for Rochester, New
York where -Jack will do research for the Haloid Company. The $64
question: Who got their apartment?
A union match
It was strictly an NMU affair when TED TEDDER, in charge
of seamen’s recreation and office gal PEARL HYMAN got hitched
at City Hall last week.
Chicago build-up
When the National Negro Congress's executive board meets here
this weekend, one of the orders of business will be whether to move
organization headquarters to Chicago, instead of as has been pro
posed, Detroit. The pro-Chicagoans argue that the Windy City is
a bigger industrial center, bigger population center.
For union parties
People's Songster BERNIE ASBEL will be in town until No
vember 4 to sing at parties, union engagements and political action
rallies. Bernie’s the guy who wrote “We got our efes on you”, the
ditty that should make Congress feel uneasy. To get in touch with
the.handsome lad, dial Dearborn 4931, People’s Songs, Inc.
Singer with a sore throat
Wowing them at Balaban & Katz’ Chicago Theater is the Won
der Man himself, DANNY KAYE, who despite a bad strep throat has
been doing his beep-bop-deriddle-dop song routine seven shows a
day. DANNY, an energetic member of the ICCASP, was due to ap
pear at the November 1 HENRY WALLACE rally but because of
his health he had to decline.

poems by Annette Margolis, age

goes to Delano School.
THE WHITE BUNNY
A white little bunny hopped over
a field of wheat,.
In search of something for him
self to eat,
All of a sudden he saw something
that made him feel glad,
So glad he forgot to be
mad,
A large patch of lettuce, just
what he liked.*
So over he went and ate so much,
he looked a sight,
Home he went, hop, hop,
hop,
Turning in Circles just like
a top,
Down he went to his home In
the ground,
And fell asleep without a
sound. . .

RECORD NOTES
By RAEBURN LLEELAGE
TOM GL.AZER'S new album of
Olden Ballads for Keynote is an
item to grab onto. Although the
People’s Songs artist has no
honeyed tones like Ives, and is in
no sense a stylist to be classed
with Dyer Bennett, fce nas one
quality that makes a folk singer
worth listening to—naturalness.
In the lower ranges, Glazer
produces very attractive, mas
culine sounds, and it is only in
the higher registers that he oc
casionally seems a title uncom
fortable in attacking some of
the “embroidery" of the elder
tunes (like GREENS!.,EEVES)
Dyer-Bennett has recorded a
better “Blow the Candies Out”
and “Greensleeves,” and Ives’
“Cockle Shells” is far more at
tractive than the Glazer “Waly
Waly,” but Tom is in his element
on "Black Eyed Susie,” “Go Way
From My Window” and the five
other tunes in the album.
# * *
After having chalked up chil
dren’s albums by Jean Hersholt,
Fredric March, Ginger Rogers,
Thomas Mitchell and a half dozen
others, Decca adds to its celebri
ty-recording laurels with the In
grid Bergman reading of the
evergreen “Pied Piper of Han tr
im.”
Made up of two of their recent
ly introduced buck-a-throw ten
inchers, the album gives Miss
Bergman a 12 minute opportun
ity to demonstrate her versatility
by imitating such assorted char
acters as town councillors, a rat,
an old man, and one or two
others. She seems to enjoy the
assignment.
South's Sensotion
Bobby Layne, 19-yeiu-oid trjpie
threat passing back of the U.
of Texas, is talked up as the
Southwest’s best bet for All-
American honors this year.
