Library Music Room
Is Popular Center
By Alfred £. Jefferson
An increasingly popular place
on the A. & M. campus is the Li
brary’s Music Room. It makes the
Library’s collection of over one
thousand classical records available
to all the Aggies and servicemen
here. A new shipment of records
for new additions and replacements
will arrive soon, bringing the total
of the collection up to nearly twelve
hundred records.
During the last year, from Aug
ust, 1943, to July, 1944 totaling
nearly twenty-four thousand rec
ords were played. Many of the
men who played these records ex
pressed appreciation of the facil
ities offered by the Music Room.
The most popular pieces were
written by Beethoven and Tschai-
kovsky. Sometimes as many as one-
hundred forty different composers
were heard in one month. The dif
ference in campus personnel caus
ed by the changing of servicemen
has caused a difference in the
tastes shown over a period. How
ever, these have been the most
popular composers all along. A
number of other composers whose
works were played often are
Brahms, Bach, Gershwin, Mozart,
and Herbert.
All men stationed on the campus
are invited by the Library to come
often to the Music Room.
In pre-rationing days, the ave
rage American ate 130 pounds
of meat a year. Now he eats an
average of from 145 to 150 pounds
a year.
