man and English songs, and a take-,
off on Verdi and Wagner,

a record done by Josephine Baker,
an American Negro - who has been
for years a star in the Folies :Ber-
gere. Following this, Lucienne Boyer
will sing "Parlez-moi d'Amour," the
song she introduced to the United
States.
Other records will be played giving
selections from Jean Sablon, cur-
rently singing in New York and over
nation-wide radio hookups, and Mar-
lene Dietrich, who needs no intro-
duction to the American public, and
Dr. Prator's discussion will close with
a song from Tino Rossi, famous lyric
tenor from Provence.
