Town Hall—
(Continued from Page 1)
outbreak of applause that has in
previous years always accompanied
the presentation of a favorite num
ber seems to spur the musicians on
to far greater heights.
In commenting on a recent con
cert by the Houston Symphony a
music critic of a Houston paper
had this to say. “The orchestra
showed exceptional fire and a bril
liance of attack that produced
stirring effects; it was resilient,
assured, and responsive to Hoff
man’s every demand; it sustained
for the evening a gratifying and
civilized balance of tone, and in
short distinguished itself as a well
poised and mature symphony or
ganization. The results was a dem
onstration of music that proved ex
citing and thoroughly satisfying,
and it drew from the vast audience
some of the finest salutes that
have even been offered the or
chestra. Tonally the orchestra was
at something close to the finest
level it has ever yet attained. It
was indeed a magnificant perform
ance and one that Houston music
lovers will long remember.”
The 77 musicians of the Houston
Symphony Orchestra are a very
versatile group. Besides being top
ranking musicians, they are an in
tensely sports loving crowd, with
football, baseball, fishing and
swimming their chief outside in
terest. Fishing is probably sport
number one, the nearness of Hous
ton to the gulf accounting for that.
Boston bom Ernst Hoffman is
an accomplished tennis player.
Though physically slight, he is for
midable with a tennis racket and
gives burly opponents many a
surprise drubbing. While at Har
vard he was one of the school’s
best tennis players.
It was announced by Paul Hain
es, student Town Hall manager,
that there will be no increase in
Town Hall prices for those who do
not have reserve seat tickets. Tick
ets may be secured at the ticket of
fice at Guion Hall starting at 6:30
Thursday evening with the cost of
$1.00 for adults and 50tf for stu
dents.

day night at the Municipal Audi
torium before an audience of 15,-
000 attending the Teachers’ con
vention there.
Novelty numbers in the Latin-
American manner were presented
during the concerts to Xavier Fer
nandez, Miguel Soto, Gabe Fajardo
and Gustavo Carson. The numbers
included La Paloma, La Cucaracha,
Rancho Grande, and other native
songs.
On octet composed of Ed Bush,
L. C. Salm, Pete Adams, Lloyd
Bailey, Reynolds Smith, Gib Mi-
chalk, Bernard Martin and J. O.
Bartlett was a featured part of
the program. They sang “Ken
tucky Babe,” and a medley of “In
the Evening by the Moonlight,”
“Can’t Go to Heaven,” and “Dice
Song.”
Tentative plans are being made
by the Singing Cadets to make a
tour of North Texas in the first
part of April to include Dallas,
Fort Worth and Denton.
As a Town Hall presentation, the
Singing Cadets will give a Gilbert
and Sullivan operetta, Trial by
Jury, on April 4. Also included on
the program will be a number of
the numbers used on the recent
concert tour. Arrangements are be
ing made to have the Modern
Choir from T.S.C.W. appear on
the program with the Singing Ca
dets.

6. These accelerated courses
should be operated as part of the
Engineering Defense Training Pro
gram conducted under the auspic
es of the U. S. Office of Education.
7. The government should make
provision for loans, not to exceed
$50 for students requiring financ
ial aid. The need of this aid arises
from the fact that the students en
rolled in the accelerated programs
will be deprived of their opportuni
ties for customary summer em
ployment.
It was also recognized that R.O.
T.C. students must defer summer
military training until after grad
uation.
The application of such a pro
gram for the present sophomore
class was deemed inadvisable, and
the general opinion indicated that
no action would be taken to insti
tute a three-year course of study.
