Reports On The

Goodman

Concert

'Benny Goodman and his band of picked experts gave the second of their series of concerts at the Em- pire Theatre last night. These concerts, arranged partly, with the idea of raising funds for a "Now Year Drive," are certainly some of the most popular that have been given in Hongkong over the past years. The theatre was full läät ́night, and the audience more vociferously enthusiastic than any which has gone to hear a "straight" concert.

The trial of Gerard Oliver Jones, 44, Manager of the Lantau Development Co., Ltd, Tai Pak Village, charged with fraudulent conversion and larceny of gold bars opened this morning before Judge K. R. Macfee in the District Court.

Jones is alleged to have fraudulently con- verted 47 gold bars, valued at $69,135 entrusted to him for safe keeping, to his own use and benefit on November 15. He was also alleged to have stolen the gold bars on the same date.
