...Manhattan premiere, another member sends not a basket of roses, but a big red apple. This autumn Ethel Barrymore has been gallantly struggling for big red apples-some for herself and some for her daughter Ethel Barrymore Colt, 19, who is making the ninth generation's debut with her mother in Scarlet Sister Mary...
...realm. (Audiences often suspect Cossack Ovtchinikov of being a woman.) The Cossacks hum their own accompaniments and strum them.

Already scheduled for recitals are Josef Hofmann, Harold Bauer, Ossip Gabrilowitsch. Italian Carlo Zecchi will make his U. S. debut in January. But the three men sure to attract greatest attention, sure to be the most newsworthy, are Paderewski, Iturbi, Gieseking...
