THE
Phil Kornheiser
Is Caught at Last
After Escaping the Photographer for Years He
Is Caught at an Embarrassing Moment
The title appearing on the accompanying pho-
tograph of Phil Kornheiser is not that of a
new blues song. It does, however, describe the
feelings of a landlubber who had just returned

from Catalina Island, while on what was in-
tended to be a "pleasure trip" to Los Angeles
and vicinty. There it had all the earmarks of
being "everything else but." We have it from
good authority that this was not an attempt at
an imitation but is an honest-to-goodness sea-
sick man. Phil Kornheiser for years has en-
deavored to keep his photograph out of the
press. On one or two occasions he has been
taken in group photographs but has heretofore

REVIEW
resisted all efforts for individual shots. The
Los Angeles correspondent of this department,
however, arrived at the moment when Mr. and
Mrs. Kornheiser got off the Catalina boat and
just after his wife bathed his fevered brow.
When he was absolutely helpless the deed was
done, the photographer scurried away, the film
was developed and rushed East by airplane
mail. Here's the result.
Gershwin to Write for
New York Symphony
Well-known Popular Composer Receives Com-
mission for Composition—Deems Taylor Also
Receives Commission
Following the example of the Metropolitan
Opera, which has just ordered an American
musical novelty instead of waiting for one to
be brought to it by some native composer on
his own initiative, it was announced recently
that the New York Symphony Society has com-
missioned George Gershwin and Deems Taylor
to write orchestral works for presentation next
season.
Gershwin, whose "Rhapsody in Blue" has at-
tracted wide attention, will write a "New York
concerto" in three movements, aiming to por-
tray the spirit and atmosphere of the city, but
according to the composer's own statement just
before sailing abroad, "this will not be done in
the obvious way." Gershwin will compose the
work while in London. He himself will play
the piano part at concerts of the New York
Symphony Orchestra in Carnegie Hall next
Dec. 3 and 4 and on tour in Washington, Balti-
more and Philadelphia.
Deems Taylor, already commissioned to write
an opera in the next year, has not yet decided
upon the nature of his orchestral work. In
form, however, it will be a suite in four move-
ments. Walter Damrosch will conduct the or-
chestra at both the Gershwin and Taylor pro-
ductions.
"Indian Dawn" Popular
May 6.—The sheet music de-
partment of the Seiberling-Lucas Music Co., 151
Fourth street, recently had a particularly attrac-
tive window on the Sam Fox publication
"Indian Dawn." Miss Maybelle Elliott, in
charge of the sheet music department, reports
good sales on "Indian Dawn," "Oh Mabel"
from the Berlin, Inc. catalog, and the two Jack
Mills, Inc., numbers, "Nobody Knows What A
Red-Headed Mama Can Do" and "When My
Sugar Walks Down the Street."

"June Brought the Roses"
Now in New Edition
Harms' Number Now Issued With Colored
Title Page Appropriate for Dealers' Display
Purposes
Harms, Inc., publishers of "June Brought The
Roses," words by Ralph Stanley, music by John
Openshaw, composer of "Love Sends a Little-
Gift of Roses," has brought out an entirely new
edition of this new offering. Formerly the num-
ber was issued with a black and white title
page but its popularity has so increased in
recent weeks that it has encouraged the pub-
lishers to give it an artistic frontispiece. The
new edition is particularly appropriate for win-
dow and counter displays and, due to the pres-
ent popularity of the number, it should be given
a conspicuous place in music stores.
New Releases by the
Oliver Ditson Go.
Include Four Numbers by Charles Dallier and
Five Piano Compositions by F. Sabathil
Among the new releases from the Oliver Dit-
son Co. catalog are four numbers by Charles
Dallier, all piano compositions, namely, "The
Bareback Rider," "Gondolier's Love," "Saltar-
ello" and "Valse Joyeuse." Also five composi-
tions for the piano by F. Sabathil, namely, "In-
termezzo," "Lost Illusions," "Magyar Festival,"
"Novellette Russe" and "Polka Caprice." To
the piano compositions of Arthur Traves Gran-
field has been added "On the Promenade" and
Gladys V. Gilbert has contributed "Arabesque"
and "Humoresque." A piano composition for
four hands called "The Denuded Forest" is also
included. This composition is by Frances
Terrv.
"O Katharina" Sung
by Eddie Cantor
"Kid Boots" Star Using Number in Production
on Tour—Also Popular on the Vaudeville
Stage
Leo Feist, Inc., has achieved wonderful suc-
cess in its exploitation of the European success
"O Katharina." Resides being the feature num-
ber of "Chauve Souris," it has been in great
favor with some of the best vaudeville head-
liners. The latest artist to fall under the spell
of "O Katharina" is Eddie Cantor, who now
includes it as a feature in "Kid Boots," at pres-
ent on tour and playing Philadelphia this week.
"O Katharina," in addition to the above, has
been one of the most popular numbers with
dance orchestras, many of whom render it
vocally as well as instrumentally.
Darmand With Carl Fischer
Victor G. Darmand, who for over twenty
years was associated witli the B. F. Wood Mu-
sic Co., Boston, Mass., has joined the sales
staff of Carl Fischer, Inc., and will travel
through the New England States and Canada
representing the Fischer catalog. Mr. Darmand
'has had a wealth of experience in the standard
music field.
