SYMPHONY DRIVE SHOWS PROGRESS Volunteers Press Toward $100,000'Goal, Hoping to Reach It Tuesday. With a.slow but steady stream of contributions continually coming in, the Nationel Symphony Orchestra is progressing gradually in its sustaining fund drive. Since the announcement Monday that the campaign would be extended a week to allow solicitors mere time to canvass the city, volunteer workers have been pressing in an' effort to reach the $100,000 goal by Tuesday. Church and school organizations and the pages of the House of Rep- resentatives pledged their aid yes- terday, gifts being received from the | Public Schools Music Corps, the Choir of St. Thomas’ Church and a num- | ber of boys employed by members of Congress. Teachers Support Drive. Other support was forthcoming from | the Washington Music Teachers’ As- | sociation, the Lucky Friiay Boys'| Glee Club of Priendship House and suburban groups. In answer to inquiries as to where gifts were being received, Mrs. Walter Bruce Howe, cochairman of the Met- | ropolitan Committee, said they were | being accepted at campaign head- | quarters, in the Carlton Hotel. Mrs. Edwin B. Parker, chdirman of the Suburban Committee, said mem- | bers of her group had requested more time because of the wide fleld still to be covered. Orchetra Touring South, Dr. William McClellan, cochairman of the General Sustaining Committee, who presided at the meeting yester- | day, announced that the National Symphony and its director, Dr. Hans | Kindler, are being given an impressive | reception on their Southern tour. | He read a telegram from C. C. Cappel, manager of the orchestra, which said: “National Symphony end | Dr. Kindler received tremendous ova- | tion in Asheville last night. Music | critics pronounce concert finest ever heard in city. National Symphony | proved itself an orchestra of rare musicianship and sensitive skill. Dr. Kindler and members of orchestra THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON,™ Drug Stores Lure Diva Eva Bandrowska Likes to Prowl Among the Counters. T 1S so0 hard to be serious when [ life is so grand and there are so many things to do!” And that is the best intro- duction to the character of Eva Bandrowska, coloratura soprano, who last night appeared in concert at the Polish Embassy. A little bit of the gentle Eva and a whole lot of the turbulent Topsy is in the make-up of Miss Bandrowska. Typically Polish from the top of her rather reddish head to the tips of her toes, Miss Bandrowska would rather spend an afternoon in the corner drug store than please a vast audience with her voice. Drug Stores “Wonderful.” “Your drug stores, they are the most wonderful things,” she exclaimed, clap- ping her small hands like a child who has been promised a doll for her birth- day. “In them I can buy everything. It is my biggest thrill when I can go there and see all the most wonderful things they have for sale and then sit | down and have a cup of coffee or a petit dejeuner.” Next to prowling around in drug stores, Miss Bandrowska likes danc- ing best. With her bright biue eyes a-twinkle, she swayed rythmically as| she exclaimed: “To eat is wonderful, but to dance is divine!"” Miss Bandrowska came to America less than a month ago, but she | already is beginning to glean a few words of English from her American contacts. She is determined now, she says, to master the language, because she likes America . . . all except the climate. For a good climate, she says, her own Poland cannot be sur- passed. Pleased by American Loyalty. “America pleases me very much because of the sense of humor of the | Americans and their loyalty. There is no place where the orchestras and musical organizations are supported as they are here” she says. Miss Bandrowska's is a nostalgic art. She offers a real feast of en- | joyment to lovers of bel canto. She is truly a prima donna, with all the sweetness and beauty of voice | to captivate the heart of the music lover. Following nine concerts in the United States, Miss Bandrowska will send greetings and best wishes for — — success of campaign.” EVA BRANDOWSKA. go to Russia, where she is engaged to appear 45 times. The concert at the embassy last night was given-before a select group | invited by the Ambassador. Earlier in the day Miss Bandrowska lunched with the Ambassador at the embassy. Miss Bandrowska is ranked among the most famous singers of our day. Born in Cracow, Poland, where her father was president of the city, Miss Bandrowska pursued her mu- sical studies in Vienna and Milano. For a number of years she was the prima donna of the National Opera in Warsaw, but since 1930 she has been touring Europe, appearing in opera and on the concert stage in practically every country of the con- tinent. She speaks French, German, Italian, | Russian, Hungarian and several other languages besides Polish. | INPROVED PLAY FACILITIES URGED Southwest Citizens Asked by Strobel to Seek Action on Hoover Site. Claiming the present recreational facilities are inadequate and the grounds are in bad condition, Charles Strobel, fourth precinct policeman, last night urged the Southwest Cit- izens' to take immediate steps to_seek improvement of the Hoover Playground, Third and N streets southwest. Pointing out that an appropriation of $35,000 was made for the improve- ment some time ago, Strobel said “we would be satisfied if a portion of that were used immediately.” Swimming Facilities Sought. The association vigorously opposed abolishment of the municipal swim- | ming pools in Potomac Park until proper bathing and swimming i1 SUPPLY CO.

Wender, favoring an inheritance tax in the District, was adopted by the asso- ciation. The association opposed a bill be- fore the Senate, which would establish negligent homicide as a misdemeanor when death is caused by the operation of any vehicle driven recklessly, but not wilfully, the penalty to be a heavy fine or jail sentence. Check on Bus Service Made. A check on the bus service and crowded conditions in Southwest asked by People’s Counsel Roberts, was reported on by Melvin Lewis, who said busses during the rush hours are | overcrowded. A full report will be | sent to Roberts. The creation of a rent commission in the District was opposed by the group. ‘The Library Committee reponed that Dr. George F. Bowerman of the Public Library is in favor of a branch library in Southwest. Ben Lindas presided in the absence of the president. KAPLOWI Z| “ ‘THE COAT AND.
