You Must Give Them A Little Corn. K.C. Orchestra Director Says
New York. (UP)—Efrem Kurtz, the pied piper of Kansas City, unlapped his long legs from around his French poodle today and explained the magic necessary to produce a major philharmonic orchestra out where the tall corn grows.
First you must give the people a little "corn". Kurtz admitted, and then you slip in the better music.
Kurtz, who has conducted the Kansas City orchestra for the past three years, knows what he's talking about because when he took it over the Kaycee philharmonic's audience was practically nil. This past season, which began in October, he had to turn away hundreds from the "pop" concerts because of lack of seats.
Kurtz, who is in New York to do some recordings with the New York philharmonic on a radio program March 31 and April 7. Then he goes to Mexico City for a series of concerts with Jascha Heifetz as his soloist.
"I give them something from Carousel or Oklahoma," he explained,
"and then I give the Beethoven's eighth or Brahms' fourth, and they love it."
The tall. cheerful, Russian-born conductor believes that inland America, staunchest stronghold of the jitterbugs, is due for a great increase in major symphonic orchestras.
"In Kansas City we are going ahead fast," he said. "One of my former assistants, Anton Dorati, has started a fine orchestra in Dallas and another has been started in Denver."
"First chair men in every section are imported," he explained, "and usually several in the strings."
He believes that most experts sell the average American short as a music lover.
Kurtz said that about one-third of his Kansas City orchestra was imported, with the rest local talent.
"He will come to your concerts and he will listen, just as do the people of Europe."
"Give him something he knows, and then mix it with something he should know, and he is most appreciative." Kurtz said.
Kurtz said that he, himself, was quite entranced with much popular music and that he even liked boogie-woogie.
"This Benny Goodman, I have
tell you, he is. is, very fine musician."
Kurtz said that he liked nothing better than to go to a night club and listen to "the jazz."
Keep Job Service, Bradley Urges U.S.
Washington. (UP)-Gen. Omar N. Bradley, veterans administrator, said today that one out of every five discharged servicemen quit his peace time job after a few weeks of employment.
Bradley said the re-employment of these veterans is an "acute emergency." He asked a Senate labor subcommittee to postpone return of the U. S. Employment service to state control. Such action, he said, might "throw the whole system into confusion."
Bradley said that of an estimated 11,200,000 discharged servicemen, approximately 20 per cent had held their first civilian positions only a few weeks. An additional one-tenth were about ready to quit at the time a recent survey was made.
Dogs Kill Sheen. Turkeys
Salem, Ore. (UP)—Marion County, Ore., residents were wondering if the countryside was going to the dogs when county dog catcher Paul Marnah reported that one band of 20 sheep and a flock of 45 turkeys had been killed during February by marauding canines.
Shirley's Brother Wrestles With Career
Hollywood. (UP)—Actress Shirley Temple's big brother George, who won his first professional wrestling match, took on his family today in a battle over wrestling as a civilian career.
Temple, who learned to wrestle in the marines, made his professional debut at Ocean Park. He used his 195 pounds to pin Iron Mike Works, 210, in 20 minutes of a one-fall preliminary match.
The match was no surprise, as Temple was a champion in the marine corps. But most of his famous lions used to come and watch him win it.
Only his father, George Temple Sr., was present. He "sneaked" into the audience, sat far back, and angrily brushed off reporters and photographers. He refused to go to his son's dressing room after the match and did not speak to him.
Young Temple, 26, said he and his family had been arguing over his career ever since he decided not to go back to his prewar job with the California highway patrol. A technical sergeant, he was medically discharged from the marine corps March 20, 1945.
His family does not want him to go on with wrestling, he said. And if he does, they do not want him using the family name.
"I have no intention of trading on on my sister's name," he said. "I intend to make my way on my own.
"But the name Temple is my name too and I have a right to use it. I am not going to hide under an assumed name. Wrestling is nothing to be ashamed of."

Breaking Out or Breaking In —It's All the Same to Police
the chronicle of a writing family.
New York (UP) — Clarence Brown, 45, denied that he was guilty of forcing entry in connection with taking $192.50 from the office of a former employer after hours. He admitted taking the money, but said he hid in the office until it had been locked for the night. "I broke out of the office, not in," he said. He was held for trial after detectives explained that forced exit also was frowned upon.
Wichita Police Union Continues Protest
Wichita (UP) — Wichita's police union quarrel grew more violent today as union members began demanding the recall of two or more of the city's five city commissioners in a protest against the firing of seven police officers because of their connection with a police union.
Two of the discharged officers, Clyde Daniels and W. L. Nash charged that parking tickets in the city were torn up and that in some hotels law enforcement officers have orders not to go above the lobby floors to enforce certain laws.
They further charge that senior officers in the department would not permit the rank and file officers to swear on liquor or gambling violations.
Union officials also announced they would appeal the decision last week by Judge Robert L. Nesmith, denying a writ of mandamus to force the reinstatement of Daniels, former police sergeant and treasurer of the union.
Nesmith pointed out, however, that he knew of no law to prevent police officers from organizing or belonging to a union.
