Woman Receives Engineering Award
"Engineering students should make an effort to read more books and magazines," says Marjorie Heard Franklin, Russell engineering graduate, in her editorial which has been awarded first place in the Engineering College Magazine Associated's competition for the best single editorial for 1955-56.
Mrs. Franklin, who graduated in February with a B.S. degree in aeronautical engineering, wrote the editorial for the Kansas Engineer, student published and edited magazine of the School of Engineering and Architecture. An award for the honor has been received by the School and will be placed in the engineering library in Marvin Hall.
Pledge labor in the fraternities at KU is probably the cheapest labor on the campus.
Strings Talk For Quartet
They made their instruments talk. This was the impression made by the Quartetto Italiano Wednesday night in Strong Auditorium.
Vast differences in loud and soft passages in Prokofieff's "Quartet No.2 in F major" gave the quartet the seemingly personal touch of talking. The portrayal allowed the audience to feel what the performers were feeling for their music.
Precise violin duets in the Prokofieff selection gave the audience an insight into the artistry of this quartet, as did the excellent performance of the figurations in chromatic harmony.
Franco Rossi, cellist, thrilled the audience with passages in Beethoven's "Quartet in E flat major." The exacting grace and ease of his performance denoted him as an outstanding musician.
Other selections played were "Capriccio a Quattro," by Vitali "Sonata a Quattro," by Heri and "Sonata del Santo Sepulchiro," by Vivaldi.
"We like all the music we play," said Paolo Boriani, 1st violinist, in an interview.
Like All Their Music
"At different times we like certain selections more," he said.
University Daily Kansan
During most of the concert, the quartet read their music. When they were here three years ago, they played from memory.
