Harry Truman and
Jack Benny Star In
Kansas City Benefit
KANSAS CITY, UP) — Harry
Truman, who used to wield the
greatest authority in the land,
was to wield a baton and act
as master of ceremonies Saturday
night at a eoncert organized to
get the Kansas City Philharmonic
Orchestra out bf the red.
Appearing with him—as violin
soloist — was comedian Jack
Benny.
The former President, a vigor
ous 73-year-old who can match
Benny quip for quip was to con
duct the orchestra in The Star
Spangled Banner and at least one
other number.
Truman insisted he would not
play the piano—a favorite pas
time which he does rather well.
He and Benny said before the
concert they certainly wouldn’t
play a duet.
“I don’t play good, but I play
better than Mr'. Truman,” Benny
cracked.
But their denials had the flavor
of teasers, and the philharmonic
has been hinting broadly for
weeks that the audience-can ex
pect much more than the announ
ced program.
The 2,500 seats in the music
hall of the Municipal Auditorium
were sold out for the concert, and
$55,000 net was expected to wipe |
out the orchestra’s deficit. Ticket |
prices ranged from $2.50 to $50, j
with the emphasis placed on sales
in blocks of $100 worth or more.
