Cass, Palmer To Present Staff Recital
Jeannette Cass, soprano, and Robert Palmer, pianist, will present a faculty recital in Frank Strong auditorium at 7:30 p.m. Monday.
Both of these artists are comparatively new to the University and Lawrence musical circles. They are now entering their second year as members of the University staff.
Miss Cass has her bachelor of music degree in piano from the Eastman School of Music, and a master of music degree in piano and a bachelor of music degree in voice from this University. She has taught in the public schools of Omaha, Neb.; at the Iberia Junior College, Iberia, Mo.; at Mary Hardin-Baylor College, Belton, Texas; and at Hastings College, Hastings, Nebr.
Palmer entered the Eastman School of Music in 1934, majored in piano and composition, and received his bachelor of music degree in 1938 and his master of music degree the following year. While at Eastman he studied under Dr. Howard Hanson and Bernare Rogers. Following his work at Eastman he had private study with Roy Harris, was one of six students selected for scholarships for study under Aaron Copland at the Berkshire Music center in the summer of 1940. In 1941 Palmer won national honors, being chosen for the Columbia Broadcasting Award for an American Orchestral work which was given its premiere performance over a national hook-up last spring.
Only recently a string quartet of Palmer's was chosen to inaugurate the Bradley Chamber Music Quarterly, a new publication to contain recent American chamber music.
The program will consist of two groups of vocal numbers by Miss Cass and a group of piano numbers by Palmer, one of which will be a new Prelude for piano composed this summer and receiving its first performance here Monday evening.
The recital is open to the public.

In contrast, the Jayhawks chalked up home victories over Washington 19-6 and Iowa State 13-0. In their road appearances, the Henry-coached men have not been so fortunate, dropping games to Temple, Nebraska, and Marquette. Kansas, for the first time since the Temple contest, should be nearly at full strength. Bob Githens, Monte Merkel, Don Pollom, and Ralph Miller are scheduled to see plenty of action Saturday, although none of this quartet will be in first class physical shape.
The Sooners' starting halfbacks, Orv Mathews and sophomore Junior Golding are expected to spark
ORVILLE MATHEWS
Luster's "A" formation attack. Mathews, Big Six 100 - yard dash champion is probably the fastest football player in America. Listing some of Mathews' touchdown dashes of last fall. Orwent 55 and 80 yards at Santa
Clara, 77 yards against Temple to defeat the Owls 9-6, and 45 yards here at Lawrence to reach paydirt. Mathews scampered 66 yards to chalk O.U.'s first tally against the Oklahoma Aggies this year, and in last week's upset of Santa Clara, Ov scored the Sooners' first six points on a pass from Jack Jacobs. Junior Golding, a sophomore sensation, was the leading Sooner ground gainer in the Kansas State game two weeks ago.
Miller, bothered by a sore arm, is on of the nation's finest passers. However, Vandaveer, who played more than half of the Iowa State game, may replace Miller. Marv Whited, a bone-crushing blocker who has made Sooner fans forget Al Crowder, will be at quarterback with Jack Jacobs, punting hero of the Santa Clara upset, at fullback.
To match this superb combination is one of the nation's finest passersion, Kansas will present a pair of dynamic sophomores, Ray Evans and Ray Nibble. Nebraska rated Evans as one of the best, while Iowa State found Nibble, unstoppable. Nibble gained 138 yards in the Cyclone contest. Don Ettinger will start at fullback for Kansas with either 'Riffing' Ralph Miller or Marvin Vandaveer at quarterback.
Letterman Dub Lamb and sophomore Jim Tyre will open as ends for Oklahoma while the flankers for Kansas are Hub Ulrich, all-star candidate, and scrappy Bob Hagen. In Roger Eason, all-Big Six last fall, and Howard Teeter, a 230-pound giant, the Sooners boast the best pair of tackles in the valley. Jayhawk tackles will be Steve Meade, a senior, and Gene Long, a sophomore.
At the O.U. guard posts are the biggest and smallest members of the line. On the right side will be Mitch Shadid, a 170-pound midget. Ralph "Fats" Harris, 245-pounder, named often as a possible All-American, will be on the left side. Jack Marsee, a sub for two seasons
