By B. fl.fi. PERHAPS TWAS MUSIC, AND WONDERFUL, TOO. "A Reader" writes in to tell me of an incident vrhich happened the other - day. "A number of us were walking passed the city auditorium," she writes. "We noticed an advertisement on the building telling that the Omaha Symphony Orchestra -was going to play on November 4. Just -then -we heard some music. " I s n ' t that music •wonderful!' one of my friends exclaimed. She thought the symphony was practicing. "But with the music along came one of those loud organs on a truck, advertising a downtown show. My friend decided that she needed to take a course at the Jewish Community Center in music appreciation." What incidents did you hear or see, readers? Write 'em in and give us a laugh.
