- For the benefit of Pan-American Music Scholarships
Under the auspices of Inter-America House, Mrs. William A. Barber, Chairman
Use of Carnegie Hall donated by Helen Traubel
Broadcast on CBS
According to the New York Times review, the "second-tier boxes were draped with the flags of the twenty Latin-American republics" for this performance. Also, since the first half of the program "ran beyond the appointed time [...] some of the numbers after the intermission had to be cut and others rearranged so the Columbia Broadcasting System could go on the air at the appointed time." Intermission followed the selections by the Yale Glee Club, and the scheduled time for the broadcast was 10:15 PM, but which selections were cut or rearranged is not known.
