HEARD ON RADIO
CONDUCTOR’S HEATED “SHUT UP.” LONDON, May 13. Since he called the “opera savages” to order at a performance the other night, Sir Thomas Beecham has been the recipient of hundreds of congratulations. Hopes are expressed that the good results will spread to the theatres, thus stopping late arrivals or the rattle of teacups at matinees and talking while the play is in progress. Sir Thomas Beecham's rebuke was the more telling as it was audible over the wireless, so that millions heard his heated “Shut up.”
