Ossip Gabrilowitsch, m(prnntlomfl]y famous planist and conductor of the | Detroit Symphany Orchestra, will make | his radio debut as a piano soloist in the | General Motors' “Family Party" tonight over WRC and other National Broad- casting Co. stations. He also will con- duct the symphony orchestra in its first Nation-wide radio concert For his solo Gabrilowitsch has selected ’ Schumann's “Concerto in A selection which music_critics 75 years ago condemned as “eccentric and con- ceited.” The orchestral specialties in-| clude Schubert’s overture to ‘“Rosa- munde,” the opening number, and Liszt's “Les Preludes.” The Voice of Firestone and the A. & P. Gypsies will provide WRC's other | outstanding musical features. In addi- tion the station has scheduled the Gil- bert’s Sports Revue, featuring Grant- land Rice, dean of American sports writers, which was shifted from the| Sunday program because of the Phila- delphia Symphony Orchestra toncert.

His contributions will be the old English son, “Believe Me If All Those Endearing Young Charms,” and “The Dawn Brought Me Love and You.” The “Dance Hongroise" of Tschaikowsky and Brahms’' “Hunga- rian Dance, No. 6, are among the or- chestral selections. Vaughn_ DeLeath, contralto, and Franklyn Baur, tenor, with Hugo Mari- ani's Orchestra, will again provide the Firestone program. A tabloid version of the current revue at the internationally famous Folies Bergere Theater in Paris will be pre- sen ed as the “Evening in Paris” sketch tonight over WMAL and associated Co- lumbia Broadcasting System stations. .

Sponsors of this attraction have booked Lombardo for a series of concerts. Opportunity Hour Planned. Paul_Specht's Orchestra, which will bring WMAL's program to a snappy, close, announces another “opportunity hour.” in which it will play the popular music of unknown composers. In order to stimulate interest in the development of music, Specht plans to award prizes for the best number written by an \m- known amateur composer. A novel program by Merle Johnaton and his orchestra is the CeCo program feature, while the Brunswick Brevities at 7:30 o'clock will be devoted to the songs of Libby Ho]mnn. petite star of “The Little Show,” a popular Broadway revue.
