Hawaiian Singer Turns Composer
Frank Tavares, a senior from Kula, Hawaii, is adding composing 'to his list of musical accomplishments.
A piano major with the habit of winning talent shows, Tavares last year composed three musical pieces for Merrilyn Coleman to sing in her senior recital (presentation of music majors just before graduation).
The pieces varied greatly, from a poem by St. Vincent Millay titled "What Lips My Lips Have Kissed," and a soft piece called "Lullaby," to a light piece about adolescent sophistication.
FRANK TAVARES
He began hitting the musical spotlight in 1953, when he played with the Honolulu Symphony Orchestra. In 1954, just out of high school, he won a Hawaiian TV talent show and went for a week's stay in Hollywood at the Roosevelt Hotel.
A screen test was scheduled as a part of the prize, but Tavares left Hollywood before the week was up to visit friends in Pasadena and missed it.
Since coming to KU in 1954, he has spent his summers in Aspen. Colo., famed winter ski resort where music is stressed in the summer.
Not especially interested in a career at this time. Frank would like to continue studying music after his January graduation and work towards his masters degree.

You're Not Alone In That Problem
In a German grammar course, the masculine and feminine endings of nouns were being discussed.
"What is I have a friend?" a boy was asked.
After his correct answer, the instructor went on: "Very good, And now tell me, what is 'I have a girl friend?'"
The freshman-boy looked puzzled. After a while he answered: "But... I don't have a girl friend!"
May Organize Flight Training
The KU Army ROTC unit may soon have a flight training program comparable to that of the Air Force unit here. M. Sgt. Harold Armstrong, unit sergeant major, said Thursday. Word has been received from the Department of the Army in Washington, D. C., that KU is under consideration for such a program.
The Air Force ROTC program is given at the Lawrence Municipal Airport and requires 18 hours of dual instruction, 17 hours solo flight and a $1\frac{1}{2}$-hour test flight for the civilian license.
M. Sgt Armstrong said KU is the only school in the area being considered for a flight unit of this type. The consideration came as the result of U. S. Continental Army Command decision for limited expansion of the ROTC flight program.
Young GOP's To Attend 'Counterattack 1958'
James W. Green became the first dean of the Law School on Nov. 4, 1878, the same day he was elected county attorney.
The program could be put into effect within a short time if the Department of Army approves it, he said.
"Counterattack 1958" will be the theme of the annual Young Republicans state workshop to be held Nov. 15-17 in Wichita.
At a luncheon Saturday a talk will be given by Rep. William Avery (R-Kan) saluting Rep. Edward Rees (R-Kan) for his 18 years of service in the party.
Nine Kansas Collegiate Young Republicans clubs will be represented. About 40 members from the University are expected to attend, said Walt McGinnis, Lawrence senior and state chairman of the Young Republics.
Opening day of the workshop will be a get acquainted session. Discussion groups will be held Saturday with state Republican leaders taking part.
The porpoise looks like a clumsy, fat pig, but it can travel at speeds up to 50 miles an hour and make right angle turns at high speed.
McGinniss said a nationally prominent Republican, unnamed as yet, will speak at a dinner Saturday night. Later that evening a Counterattack 1958 Ball will be held. The workshop will end Sunday with a breakfast.
Peabody, Mass., is the birthplace of George Downing, who built 10 Downing Street in London, home of Britain's prime ministers.
A scheduled trip by KU Young Democrats to attend the national Youn Democrats convention in Reno, Nev. this weekend was called, Jack Sullivan, Lawrence senior and
president of the club, said Thursday. Sullivan said that transportation couldn't be arranged and most students said they couldn't spare the time.
