HENEVER a basso opens his mouth to sing, almost every bass in hearing distance can join in and sing the number to the end with him from memory, musicians around the National Broadcasting Co.'s New York studios have observed. Not that any bass can learn by heart all the great hoard of musical literature written for that voice. Far from it. But for most performances bassos are likely to choose numbers from a repertoire that has almost be- come standard. Wilfred Glenn, bass of The Revelers, and himself a bass soloist in radio programs, admits he has a slight pref- erence for none other than “Rocked in the Cradle of the Deep.” Here are the songs Glenn believes most basses know by heart: ‘“Rocked in the Cradle of the Deep,” “Asleep in the Deep,” the armorer's song from /'Robin Hood,” the horn so]o from “Ernani,” the serenade from ‘“Faust,” “When the Sands of the Desert Grow the Bell in the Light hen Basso Profundo ‘Over the Billowy Sea,” “Anchored” and “Davy Jones™ Locker.” Opera, according to Glenn, adds a number of arias to the bass repertoire, and many songs written -for other voices are excellent in adaptations. The songs he named, however, are the ones upon which most aspiring basses pounce when they are beginning their careers, and they know them best. e s 'MAQ will shift from the Columbia to the N. B. C. network November 1, giving the latter six associated stations in Chicago. At present KLW, WGN, WENR, WLS and WIBO are affiliated with N. B. C. outlets on a part-time basis. Of these WENR alone is under an operating lease to the chain. Other Columbia stations in Chicago are ‘WBBM and WJJD, but negotiations are under way to increase the number. e B.

NEW YORK FAILS IN MOVIE RIVALRY Hollywood Keeps Leadership of Industry Despite Recent Shifts. By the Associated Press, NEW YORK, August 31.—New York's bid to outstrip Hollywood as the motion | picture capital nppll’cnlly has falled, movie men disclosed toda: A movement which a yeur ago seemed to presage a wholesale Eastward trek of the talkles has almost petered out.| The California climate lndy the Holly- | wood facilities have nipped the change in the bud, offsetting New York's ap- parent advantages. Increases Only Temporary. | “Every 50 often,” said a representative | of the Motion Picture Producers and Distributors of America, “there 1is a| temporary increase in activity in the motion picture field in the East. Then | every one cries ‘Down goes Hollywood"' But_Hollywood never goes down. “Out in Hollywood they have be!n figuratively, packing their bag for the| trip East for the last 10 years, but so far they never have got more than a | toothbrush into it.” More than a year ago, said this rep- esentative of the organization headcd more pictures might be made in New | York because of the concentration her= of actors, playwrights and artists of all kinds.

David Wark Griffith, us-| ing the Edison studio, has just finished | a picture.

Besides the climate, which is favor- able for motion picture work, the con- centration of costly studios, other fa- clllhe( and technical skill in Hollywood | Bives it the advantage, say the picture men.
