The Apollo Trio last night delighted a captive audience in Swarthout Recital Hall. A girl stood at the gate with some sort of official-looking blue cards and asked whether we were music majors. She looked surprised when we said we weren't, as if to say, "Who would go to a free concert around here who didn't have to?"
This is madness; it was a delightful concert. The music was totally unfamiliar, the artists competent and sensitive, and the instrumentation novel enough to be interesting in itself.

First Jet Powered Copter Is on Way
The Army's first jet-powered helicopter will be exhibited on the campus October 24-26.
The HU-IA, called the Iroquois, can outclimb some World War II fighter planes and has exceeded 160 miles per hour in level flight.
The helicopter is being shown in 14 states and Canada to students in army aviation, engineering students, and Army ROTC faculty.
not as long on bravura technique as the Saint-Saens "fantasie" demanded, but always musicianly and sound. The flautist, Max Waits, showed fine tonal variety, a husky lower register and a silvery upper, and a refreshing sense of expressive phrasing. I don't know much about the harp, but Mrs. Ling cut her difficult lines with conspicuous ease and grace.
HARTFORD, Conn. — (UPI) A thief who swiped 10 paper-wrapped tires from in front of a store must have been keenly disappointed. The tires were worn out and had been wrapped only for advertising purposes.
Gunter Raphael's "Sonatine" was the only work on the program of any real density, and it was given an impressive reading. I would like to hear it again. And if some of the other pieces leaned too heavily upon the novel sonorities of the trio, that's O.K. too How often does one get to hear a harp in recital?

Carillonneur Must Adapt Own Music
A "pet project" of the Campanile's carillonneur is transcribing early carillon music into modern notations so it can be played.
Ronald M. Barnes, instructor of music history and carillonneur, said:
"Little music is published for the carillon so each carillonneur has to acquire his own library and adapt music for his own instrument.
"I imagine I must have at least a thousand single numbers. My collection is growing and must be one of the biggest in the nation."
Mr. Barnes, who began playing the carillon at Lincoln, Neb., in 1946, came to the University in 1951.

"The carillon is played manually on a keyboard. The wooden keys are much larger and farther apart than on a piano and the foot pedals are similar to the organ." Mr. Barnes said.
He is vice-president of the Guild of Carilloneurs in North America and editor of the group's quarterly bulletin.
Mr. Barnes plays carillon recitals every Sunday at 3 p.m. and every Wednesday at 7 p.m.
Last year, he discovered some early 17th and 18th century carillon music for his collection. Microfilm of the music was sent to him from national archives in Europe.
Mr. Barnes will play some of this music for the National Convention of the American Musical Society at the University of Chicago in December.
Mr. Barnes said;
"The Campanile has 53 bells weighing from 7 tons to 12 pounds. The total weight of the bells is about 50 tons. The bells were made in England by the Job Taylor Co., which has been casting bells since 1308.
"There are about 100 carillons in the U.S. KU has one of the largest bell towers. Carillons have from 23 to 76 bells—53 being the most practical maximum."
