Music to Prevail in Social Center The removal of a hat from the head of a young man at the Castelar achool so- cial center during a chorus rehearsal Tuesday evening nearly upset the har- mony of the occasion, While forty young men and women were engaged in vocalizing under Direc- tor Bouriclus a group of thirty-five young men entered and opcupled seats at the rear of the auditorium. Bupervisor Stew- art asked a youth at the rear to remove | his hat, whereupon the wearer of the hat expressed his disinclination.

With Concealed Tin Horn Substitutes for the Victrola When you get a cabinet-style talk- g ing-machine, you want a cabinet-style talking-machine—with sounding boards and ampli- fying compartment of resonant wood built right into the instrument. You don’t want a substitute arrangement that merely conceals an amplifying tin horn behind some fancy grille work, or that swings the horn around from one position to another while the record is playing. With any such inadequate substitute you can’t expect a satisfactory tonal reproduction from your records. There’s no such substitute device in the Vietrola. doors and see the sounding boards and amplifying compartment for yourse!f—.and these exclusive patented Victrola features are necessary to provide the very limit of area and character of vibrating surface so necessary to a full and pure tone reproduc- tion at all times in exact accord with the artist’s interpretation.
