Indication of What Is to Come
As marines wipe out Jap airfields within 750 miles of Tokyo on Iwo. !

two-way thrust on Nippon grows steadily clearer. Some observers con
sider the thrust up from Iwo to be the quick way, but others insist the
smash must come from the South China coast and Formosa. Many ob
servers seem to think that all indications are that the Japanese islands
will be conquered before attempting direct combat in Asia.

For Years Kreisler Played
Own Music as Another’s
Fritz Kreisler achieved much
of his fame as a violin virtuoso
by playing, among others, his own
many compositions which he
claimed were unknown works of
minor masters long dead, says
Collier’s.
Kreisler started this practice
in his early days of concert work
through the fear that he would
not become popular if the public
knew his repertoire consisted
largely of his own music; and he
carried on the artifice for 30 years
before confessing in 1935.
