A large audience in Guiqn Hall
last night discovered that the Ag

in the concert hall as it does on the
football field.
Upder the direction of Col. E.
the band moved expert-
composite program
and popular
music. , T
Opening the program with
Col. R. J. Dunn's now-famous
arrangement of the national an
them, the group which first
drew acclaim for the arrange
ment proved; that the scoring is
still good and that the band has
lost none of its skill.
Alford’s “The Mad Majpr
March” was the second selection
and! its spirit and depth were w^ll
displayed by building acoustics.
This was the First time many; bf
us have heard the present

Not to be outdone, the i rcejds
came foiward in Goldmanj’a

contrast between the two sec

was good although sometimes
overridden by the band, which so
completely filled the stage that
the conductor was crowded. A
member of the clarinet section
was actually forced to move off
stage to make room for a bass
horn soloist
The band began its movement
into the popular field in their sixth
selection of the Maori Farewell
Song, more popularly known as
“Now is the Hour.” Done in dance
tempo, the number was particular
ly good. . 1
Final soloist, and the best re
ceived by the audience, was Paul
A. Allen who played Catozzi’s
“Beelzebub" 1 on the bass horn,
which at best is an unwieMy
solo instrument This bothered
i Allen not id the least however
and he went through the “Air
Varie” with the ease of a veter
an, receiving some beautifully
timed aid from the’remainder
of the band.
Eighth selection by the group
was the Overture from Rossini’s
“Barber of SevjHe" and despite
the numbers’ weight and the
waridth of the auditorium, they
handled it well and \fleceived a
good ovation from the perspiring
crowd. Y

witty, the band played a Fantasy

The play is under the direction
of George DillavOu of the Eng

the student director.
According to Dillavou, “‘Our
Town' is a morality play and as
such dispenses] with conventional'
stage scenery. For a morality play;
all that is needed]is a bare stage.'
While such plays are usually time-'
less, Thornton Wilder has named
a particular town and a particul
ar timie, but he has not done so to
make his .seenq and time any lest
imiversal than |tnd scene and timt ’
of the original mprality play. Our ^
Town is a play almut life, and to
dramatize fife Wilder has chosen
a section of it iis little encumbered
with non-essentials us possible."
Off-stage persons, who are real- •
ly the backbone of any production,
include H. Darfvin Hodges, light
ing, sound-effects, construction
and production manager, and Milt
Frenkel, who assists Hodges in
these tasks; Jeanne Kernodle,
chairman; Betty I McMahan, Lynn
