(Continued from page 1) demand for fine music by the public is seen in the business drawn at the Lewlsohn Stadium, N. Y., a week ago by Jascha Helfetz. Violinist played to approximately $20,000 on an attendance of 30,000 persons In two performances. This is an alU time record. Tibbett's $200,000 Top vocalist on concert lists at present la Laurence Tlbbelt. His earnings from radio and concerts ioT the current year are estimated at about. $300,000. This doe,, not in- clude royalties he gets from his Vic- tor records, film work c - work at the Metropolitan Oper in New York. Ranking vocalists at present aro figured as being Grace Moore (who. It is figured, would outdraw Tlb- bett in concerts if sho had more time to give to it and were not so occupied by film work); Lily Pons, Nelson Eddy and Richard Crooks. There are only three real draw orch leaders, at present, in the United States—Arturo Toscanini (New York Philharmonic); Leopold Stpkowskl (Philadelphia) and Sergei Koussevitzky (Boston). Instrumentalists rank Fritz Ki-els- ler first, . then Jascha Helfetz, Y^ehudl Menuhin, Sergei Rach- maninoff and Jose Iturbl. In this field It Is curious to note, say con- cert men, that violinists always out- draw pianists. Only one dancer is considered an all-time d;'aw name In the concert field—Argentina. Noticeable that a number of standard concert names are no longer In the running or aro not mentioned for other reasons. Feodor Challapin and John McCor- mack are the most noticeable names missing, although both are still concertlzlng. According to music men, they've dropped In the listings due to the public^ yen for younger people. Rosa Ponselle would bo one.of the top five. It is figured, but Is not available for concerts at the moment. Helen Jepson and Nino Martini, only singers ever developed by radio to star rating prominence, are being watched clo.>(ely by con- cert men and figured as comers. John Charles Thomas is another warbler who is considered almost at the top, althougli not having quite developed the draw of the Othcra* New Faces (Continued from page 1) They asked questions about the players' pasts; wanted to know where they came from; •were they extras getting a break or stage play- ers having their first fling on the screen; were they married or sin- gle; where did Miss Powell learn to dance. Executives from every studio at- tended the preview. Whether or not they noticed the enthusiasm of the fans for the new players is not known. It has long been argued that the inclusion of unknowns in top parts In a picture assures Its failure be- cause audiences care only for those stars they know and must recognize the player before they will unbend. No more enthusiasm could possibly be shown for stars than was dis- played for those who played the featured roles In" this pictures.: If the same reaction is attained nationally this film may do much to overcome the studios' reluctance to use screen unknowns, no matter how talented, in Important roles.
