Paganini String Group Delights KU Audience
By JAMES L. POWERS
The Paganini quartet delighted an audience of about 300 persons in Strong auditorium with a brilliant display of artistry. The group was called back for eight curtain calls during the Wednesday night performance.
The artists played three numbers written for chamber ensembles by Haydn, Barber, and Beethoven. The "Quartet in G major, Opus 54, No.1" by Haydn was the best received by the audience.
The opening movement of the number presented brilliant and lively expressions which were not retained or bound by complex emotion.
Cellist Adolphe Frezin was given the first real opportunity to display individual musicianship. His solo in the third movement proved his mastery of the difficult high range of the cello and the rich tone of the Stradivarius instrument.
The leads by the first Nollin and the viola were precise and emotionally interpretative in the Haydn manner.
The quartet's exactness on quick-opening measures was shown most clearly in Barber's "Quartet in B minor, Opus 11." The piece contained traces of a dreamy, passionate mood with frequent changes and modulations.
The only audible flaw of intonation were when one instrument produced several false tones when the instrument called for high-frequency notes.
A test of the artists' genius came as the second violinist took a note from the violist and returned it with a change in pitch, volume or vibrato.
WEATHER
"Quartet in A minor, Opus 132"
by Beethoven, revealed traces of Bach technique. The adagio movement featured the second violin with the first violin and the viola playing occasional duet parts.
The early portion of the third movement resembled a hymn or prayer with the melody carried by the second violin.
Kansas: Mostly cloudy this afternoon and tonight with snow flurries in west portion; somewhat colder tonight; Friday partly cloudy and continued cold. Low tonight 15-20 northwest to 25 southeast. High Friday 35-45.

Haines To Head Committee For KU Homecoming
Pachacamac-FOR won all class offices and one of the two All Student Council positions in Wednesday's freshman election—which record for interest and balloting.
Feature of the two-day celebration will be the annual football game between KU and the University of Missouri Tigers Dec. 1.
He is a native of Tecumseh and was graduated from Washburn university in 1927. He then transferred to Kansas to earn a degree in civil engineering in 1929. The following year he taught at Washburn and then returned to KU in 1930.

Student members of the homecoming committee, all representatives of prominent campus organizations, are James Logan, College senior; Beverly Jennings, College senior; Helen Maduros, education senior; Joe Wimsatt, business senior; Paul Arrowood, business senior; Dean Cole, College senior; Bill Hampton, College junior; and Virginia Thomson, business senior. E. R. "Bus" Zook will represent the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce.

Tex Beneke And Orchestra Chosen For Military Ball
Tex Benene and his orchestra will be on the bandstand at the University Friday, Dec. 7, for the 1951 Military ball.
Committee members voted unanimously to hold the ball in Hoch auditorium. The ball is usually held in the Military Science hall, but the committee felt that a larger space would be needed to accommodate
and vocalists, Bill Raymond and Fydie Gorme, were decided on Tuesday by the Military ball steering committee made up of representatives from the Army, Navy, and Air Force ROTC groups.
Committee members are: Keith S. Kelly, chairman, George Zahn, recording secretary, and Stephen Tkach of the Army ROTC; Kenneth E. Merrill and Leon Stromire of the Navy unit, and Bob G. Springer and Robert Cassidy of the Air Force.
The Military Ball committee, with Capt. Virgil E. Philips as supervisor, held its first meeting Tuesday to discuss problems and talk over ideas and formation of sub-compittees.
Frankie Masters and his orchestra played for the 1950 ball. The Beneke band is larger by five members than Mr. Masters' 13 piece orchestra. James Sellards' band played for the affair in 1949.

the large number of guests expected to attend.
Two sub-committee chairmen were elected. Leon Stromire, Navy ROTC, was elected chairman of the queen committee, and Robert Cassidy, Air Force ROTC, chairman of the decorations committee.
**9** Letty Lemon defeated James Perkins for the presidency and Jay Warner won over Stanley Scott for vice-president.
Margaret Hughes defeated Ila Dawson for treasurer. Jacqualine Anderson, secretarial candidate on both party tickets, automatically won her position.
Pachacamac won the All Student Council position for men's representative, but lost to FACTS for the women's representative. The two Council representatives are William Hawkey and Joyce Wellborn.
The interest shown in the election tops all previous records, 541 students cast ballots for the presidential candidates. This represents almost 50 per cent of the entire class.
The vote of the fraternity pledges was undoubtedly the deciding factor in the election.
Only men could vote for the men's Council representative, and Pachacamac won this office by a 234 to 51 count, but the men could not vote for the women's representative and FACTS won it 103 to 53. These same votes gave the class offices to Pachacamac.
The freshman women are required to live in dormitories until their sophomore year, so they have no automatic political alliances. It was for their votes that the major campaign was staged.
A break-down of the votes for the class offices give Pachacamac the following count: president, 299 to 242; vice-president, 358 to 179; treasurer, 357 to 121 and the secretary won on both tickets.
The split in the All Student Council representation will not change the political division of the Council. FACTS retains its two seat majority.
