The mentions of Ossip Gabrilowitsch tweaked my memory. While researching a different topic recently, I came across a mention of him: "Ossip Gabrilowitsch Conductor of the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, and distinguished pianist, who was a guest at luncheon at the Exposition last week." in _Progress: A century of Progress, International Exposition_, 1933, v. 2, n. 16, p. 2. In Twain circles, he is cast most often as a villain, so it was interesting to see him noted in a more flattering light. Of course, _Progress_ was a promotional periodical intended to generate interest and enthusiasm for the 1933 Exposition, and thus would mention anyone of note who had even a cursory connection to it. Still, that he would be mentioned along with other celebrities gives us some sense of how he was viewed in his day. LH
