Downtown Theaters-

Karl Krueger will again draw
from the Detroit Symphony Or-
chestra for a soloist at the 15th
Subscription Concert, Feb. 3.
Ilya Schkolnik, concertmaster of
the orchestra for 25 years, will
be assisting artist for the eve-
ning. Mr. Schkolnik is a native
of Russia and comes from a fam-
ily of musicians. His most illus-
trious teacher was the Belgian
Cesar Thomson and, after a CUM
laude graduation from the Royal
Conservatory in Brussels, young
Schkolnik toured the European
continent with enormous success•.
He has been with the Detroit
Symphony since 1919, having
been brought to Detroit by Ossip
Gabrilowitsch, and he is proud
of the fact that he has been an
American citizen for more than
two decades. The Beethoven Con-
certo for Violin and Orchestra,
selected by Mr. Schkolnik, is uni-
versally recognized as the great-
est work of its time. It was writ-
ten by Beethoven during one of
his happiest periods and it
bristled with such new ideas and
technical difficulties for that time
that it was seldom attempted un-
til that great virtuoso Joachim
rescued it. To begin the program
for the evening, Karl Krueger
will conduct the Respighi ar-
rangement of the Bach Passcag-
lia. This form of composition,
derived from an ancient stately
dance, probably. of Spanish ori-
gin, based on a dignified figure
appearing invariably in the bass.
"Don Juan," the first of Strauss
tone poems to be published, will
be given a hearing on the third,
and so enthusiastically were the
Strauss numbers of Mr. Krueger
and Miss Lawrence received on
Jan. 27 that many requests have
come in for more music by that
composer. The performance by
the Detroit Orchestra, Karl Krue-
ger, conductor, of Henry Cow-
el's United Music on Sunday,
Jan. 16, was the first perform-
ance anywhere. The composer, in

I AM A WAC

By LT. FREDDIE BOYLE

A recruiting drive for Wacs
for the Sixth Service Command
is now in full swing, and it will
continue until Jan. 31. This new
drive has several advantages. For
one thing, it allows those who
wish to ask for and be assured
of assignment in Michigan. Illi-
nois, or Wisconsin. In other
words, eligible women may now
join the Women's Army Corps,
reap the benefits of Army life,
and still get an initial assign-
ment near home after they have
finished basic training. They may
also choose the branch of the
Army in which they wish to
serve—the Army Service Forces
or the Army Air Forces.
Women here in Michigan may
go still further and ask for :t
job at Fort Custer, near Kala-
mazoo, Mich., Ft. Sheridan or
Camp Grant, III., or at Camp
McCoy, Wis. If they wish, they
will be assigned to one of these
posts after they have spent two
