King Kolax and his orchestra
are responsible for the current
rhythm heat wave at Club Three

York's Cafe Society went wild
about and leading music critics
call sensationally different. Bet-

revue is doing a third week by
popular demand with no change
in the big cast of sepia favor-

Don Pedro In Seventh
Week At Club San Diego
This is the seventh successful
week for 'Latin maestro Don
Pedro and his alternating rhythm
band at Club San Diego. Don
has acquired an enthusiastic fol-
lowing through the soothing in-
fluence of his magic violin and
appealing songs. Dancing and
comedy claim major attention in
the current new show with La
Clairee's daring dance, "Moon
Passion," offering a striking con-
trast to the whirlwind tap rou-
tines of Tito Cavalero, second

edy dispenser and mimic, is again
presiding as master of ceremon-
ies. Bob is providing a big share
of the fun on WJR's "Melody
Matinee," each afternoon. York
and Lewis, knockabout ballroom
dancers, Joyce Baker, pretty and
popular singer, and Patricia
WPbster, exotic (lancer, add their
talents to a fast-moving show.

EMMA SHEVER
BRONISLAW HUBERMAN
Jewish National Fund in Pales-
tine.
Humerman is a world famous
violinist who has proven himself
to be not only as a superior
musician but also as a really
great man. A Viennese, Huber-
man saw Fascism come to power
and with Kreisler and Toscan-
nini were the first to give their
efforts to its destruction — even
back (luring the Spanish war.
Huberman could have easily tak-
en the sanctuary of a very com-
fortable haven in the United
States, but chose, instead to go
to one of the danger spots of
the world, Palestine, and assume
the conductorship of the Pales-
tine Symphony Orchestra.
This show of an idealism not
merely towards music, but also
toward humanity is something
linist is also traveling through-
out Palestine playing for the
armed forces as well as for the
laborers in the collective farms.
Persons like Huberman are
destined to play an important
role in the final transformation
of this war-torn world to a hap-
py place for good people to work
and live and play He is an anti-
fascist in deeds as well as words,
and his work all over the world
in behalf of democratic living,
and especially in behalf of the
culture of Palestine, is the defi-
nite assurance that this kind of
idealism cannot be stopped by
bullets. Bullets and bombs will
only heat the determination of
people like Bronislaw Huberman
to work and fight even harder
for a decent democratic life!
