Music: Again, Paderewski

Last week Pianist Ignace Jan Paderewski cabled Manager George Engles of Manhattan that he would definitely return to the U. S. next autumn, make his seventeenth U. S. tour, postponed this year on account of an appendectomy (TIME, Dec. 2). Pianist Paderewski has accepted, despite his 69 years, a coast-to-coast tour involving some 75 concerts. The only dispensation he asked: “a mild winter.”
