Band to Play Spring Recital March 11
Spring will come to Mount Oread 11 days early this year, for at 8 p.m. on Monday, March 11, the University of Kansas band, directed by Russell L. Wiley, will present its annual spring concert in Hoch auditorium.
To keep his musicians in top condition for the program, Professor Wiley has ordered, in addition to the regular daily practice sessions, two Sunday evening dress rehearsals, each of which will last four hours.
"This year's concert should be better than any of the preceding ones because of the popular appeal of many of the numbers which we are going to play," Professor Wiley said yesterday.
Among the selections which should especially please the audience are the "Rumanian Rhapsody No. 1" (Enesco), which is considered one of the most difficult and also one of the most colorful numbers ever transcribed from the orchestra score, and the "Manx Overture" (Wood) which is built around folk tunes from the Isle of Mann.
Students who enjoyed the selection presented by the saxaphone quintet between halves of the Kansas-Missouri basketball game will have an opportunity to hear them again playing the popular Russian hymn, "Dark Eyes." This number is arranged by a member of the group, Joe McAnarney, e'41.
Other outstanding presentations will include "Siegfried's Rhine Journey" from the opera "Gotterdamerung" (Wagner), a new transcription from the orchestra score; a cornet solo of "Ave Maria" (Schubert) by Eugene Crabb, fa'41; and a marimba solo of "My Heart at Thy Sweet Voice" (Saint - Saens) by Robert Jenkins, fa'43.
"Sonata for Oboe No. 1" (Handel) will be played with band accompaniment by Robert Foman, fa'42, and the ever popular "Finlandia" (Sibelius) will be offered by the entire band.
The arrangements of "Ave Maria" (Schubert) and "My Heart at Thy Sweet Voice" (Saint-Saens) have been made by Bill Ward, fa40, base drummer of the organization.
New Actors—
Fun-loving friends of the family are the Potters, Nick and Susan, played by George W. Fey, c'41, and Mary Noel, c'40.
(Continued from page one)
Relatives of the family *stud wet blankets to Linda's party are the Crams, Seton and Laura, played by Harold Long, b'41, and Arluine Goodjohn, fa'40.
The two other characters in the all-student cast are Bill McGinnis, c'43, as the butler and Elizabeth Kirsch, c'40, as the maid.
The show is being directed by Rolla Nuckles, instructor in the speech department, and will have two performances before it opens its formal run in Fraser Theater March 8 for four nights. The first will be the afternoon of March 29 for an audience of high school students attending the state drama festival here. The play goes to Wichita University for a one-nighter April 5.
Briefly, the story of "Holiday" is the story of Johnny Case who wants to enjoy life while he's young. He is engaged to Julia Seton who agrees with her rich father that Johnny should settle down in the banking business. Linda Seton wants fun. And thinks the Setons, as a whole, are rather a stuffy lot. So does her brother Ned, but he can't do much about it.
Johnny doesn't want to get in the rut of merely making matters, which finally splits him with Julia. So Linda steps in.
Highlight of the play is the second-act New Year's Eve party which Linda gives in the old playroom of the Seton mansion.
First produced in 1928 the play has enjoyed intermittent successes
