Gypsies Soon To Be Heard Over Radio Once Again shortly after the close of the World War a young man appeared at the offices of the American Con~ eul in Constantinople and asked if he could obtain information con- cerning his parents. To a ilroup of interested auditors he unfolded all amazing tale of ad- venture and l)l'l\llll0n. Upon the outbreak of the war, he had enlisted in the llusslun Army and for three and a half years was engaged in actions on the Russian front. Then came the Russian upheaval and his capture by the Ilclsheviki as e sol. dier of the Czar. At this point in his narrative the young man paid an impressive tribute to the power of music. for it was his ability as a musician, he said. that saved him from imprisonment or worse. He was drafted to play for the Boi- sheviki. In the meantime he had lost all trace of his parents. the Bol- shevikl refusing to permit him to establish any communication that would lead to knowledge of their whereabouts. But tucked under his arm was a violin case. The young man open- ed the case and there lay a violin and equipment in perfect condition —safe despite his trying experi- ences. Then he played. And won the hearts of his hearers. They fin- ally established communication with his parents. who, in the meantime. had departed for America. Funds .were sent for his passage and the young refugee arrived in New York. In a few months his art in inter- 'preting the songs of his native land attracted widespread attention. lie was engaged to play at exclusive restaurants. at resorts and before private gatherings. Then one day representatives of The Great A dc P Tea. Company, in search of radio talent, heard ihls young Russian and a group of his compatriots who he had gathered about him. _ Today millions know him as Har- ry Horlick and his group of musl- cians as the A 8.: P Gypsies.
