IIIIIIIIIIIIINIIII|IIM"IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIm||IlllllIIHIIIIIHIININIIIIIIIIII Hollywood Sights And Soumu | By Robbin Cooms HOLLYWOOD, Cal., May 14.<Andre Koslelanetz was in town the other day. I know that because I saw him and talked to him at his Hollywood apartment, where the ‘phone kept ringzing and the doorbell kept buzzing and a secretary came and went and a servaht or two passed unobstrusively to and fro As to where the peripatetic composer and conduetor is today, and where he will be tomorrow, your guess is probably better than mine He may be in your home town for all T know. Andre, or “Kosty,” as his friends dub him, is a clock-watcher. For those who like sentimentally to think of musicians as garret dreamers, this is disquieting, but it goes to show what the modern whirl has done to some musicians. Kosty wears a wrist watch, gift of the madam (Lily Pons), and it is a beauty, with the letters of his name in place of figures around the dial. The dots of however, are Kosty’s own idea- phosphorus on the two hands. “to tell time at night.” The generally hectic pace about the Kostelanetz fourth-floor office-home had settled down into a mild bedlam, to quote Archie Mayo’s immortal phrase, and Kosty was relaxed. He is a shortish, chubby, bland fellow, alert. bespectacled, his generous baldpate sun-pinked He wears slacks and a rough linen sports shirt, and one leg straddles the chair-arm at those odd moments when he is not answering the ‘phone or buzzer. Everything was pr_acflca]ly ready for his departure by plane - Tha! charming heetess: thougstful guests who i a8 hrng Qifts of deliclews " exclusively VAN DUYN CHOCOLATE SHOPS for Minneapolis, where he would conduct the symphony orchestra in a concert (Miss Pons would meet him there, coming up from New Orleans) before flving back to Hollywood. He had bought space on two returning plane: in order to be sure to arrive here in time for rehearsal before going on the air with his weekly program. Immediately after the broadcast he would fiy to a Denver concert, and there was a Chicago engagement, and all in all he would cover about 12,000 miles within 10 days, which wears me out just thinking about it. Not so this Kosty—"I'm accustomed to it: it’s all a matter of planuing, and flying, and making con- nections,” he said casuvally. “The most I've ever: been late was three tor four hours, and that only once.” He has traveled, the air Jines tell him, about 400000 air miles in the five years he has been trying to be everywhere at once. The miles include flying trips to visit Miss Pons, who lkewise covers territory but generally by rail. 5 2 The musical touple have a-farmhouse at Silver Mine, Confl., to which they retire when schedules permit. They spent Christmas Eve there, and will be together again there by May 15, if plans work out. Lily ha.s christened the place “Gentil Homiere,” meaning something like “pleasant little retreat.” T had to laugh at Kesty's so far ungratified desire: “I want to see what America looks like. We toured New ! Hampshire during our last, tion; and it was beautiful! 1 want | 'to see the fest of the couritry.” mmmamm&yummwu men!
