Recently-penned fight song draws interest of listeners
A new song may soon join the annals of KU tight songs.
"Hawk It to 'Em" was written by Jim Olson, Salt Lake City, Idaho, senior and recorded by a local soul group, the "Tips." Olson said he heard the "Tips" singing one night in the Gaslight tavern with a band, "Gary Jackson and the Soul Messengers."
"I remembered the tune and decided to write words to go with it." he said.
Olson, who is a member of Sigma Alph Epsilon fraternity, said the song was originally designed for use with their homecoming display, but because of interest shown by those who heard it, the record will go on sale.
Patterned after the popular "Here Comes The Judge" lyrics, the new song describes KU's football record and forecasts a trip to Miami.
The sound is similar to that of the "Temptations" or "Little Anthony and the Imperials."
The record was played on the radio on the Friday before Homecoming, Olson said, and
Ski fashion show here tomorrow
The laestest fashions in ski apparel will be modeled by KU students at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow in the Kansas Union Kansas Room.
The KU ski Club fashion show will be sponsored by Sitzmark Ski and Sun of Kansas City and the Lawrence Village Set.
After the fashion show, a film on Colorado skiing will be shown and plans for the Thanksgiving trip to Aspen will be discussed.
Forms for opera ready
It was incorrectly reported in Thursday's Kansan that cast application forms for the opera "The Mikado" are available.
people started calling from as far as St. Louis to invogue about it.
It is the production staff applications which may be picked up at the SUA office.
Because of the interest shown, the groups have decided to start selling copies for $1.25 tomorrow in all living groups and this weekend at the game.
Folk concert in Swarthout is Nov. 24
A concert of Hispanic folk music will be given at 8 p.m. Nov. 24 in Swarthout Recital Hall.
The flip side of the record, "If I Said," is a slow soul tune in contrast with the fight song. It was written by Chick Pullman, a member of "The Tips."
Sofia Noel will sing to the guitar music provided by Jesus Gonzalez Tutor. The concert is sponsored by the department of Spanish and Portuguese.
Miss Noel has given, within the last four years, more than 350 public performances in cities in Europe and Africa.
Miss Noel and Tutor made their debut together at several American universities in the fall of 1967, offering various recitals of Spanish, Latin American, and Sephardic (Judeo-Spanish) songs under the sponsorship of the Spanish, foreign languages and music departments. Their tour ended in New York with a program on CBS-TV.
Miss Noel sings songs of different lands and historic periods interpreted in their original language: Hebrew and Sephardic songs; songs of the natives of Latin America, and old French melodies as well as Russian folklore.
