CS Chest Drive
Closes Today,
ZinnAnnounces
The College Station Com
munity Chest committee
winds up the 1951 chest drive
today, Bennie Zinn, commun
ity chest committee member,
announced this morning.
Committee members are collect
ing final contributions toward the
$10,000 goal today. The drive, or
iginally scheduled to end Satur
day, was extended until today to
enable those College Station resi
dents who receive Nov. 10 pay-
checks to make their contributions.
Contributions to the drive may
be made by contacting one of the
committee members or Johnny
Longley, secretary-treasurer of
the Community Chest. Contribu-
tinos also may be made by phoning
Mr. Longley at the American Life
Insurance Company or by mailing
directly to the College Station
Community Chest, according to Mr.
Zinn.
The extent of the success of this
year’s drive will not be known un
til totaling of committee mem
bers’ reports begins tonight, Mr.
Zinn stated.
The 1951 drive began Oct. 29
following a public budget hearing
on fund requests of various organ
izations for the coming year. The
requests totaled $12,300 but were
adjusted by the committee to the
present $10,000 goal.
Forty-one percent of the bud
get will go to purely charitable
organizations within the commun
ity. Included in these local char
ities are the Needy Children’s
Fund and the Brazos County Hos
pital Fund. Also receiving chest
funds are other organizations
which contribute to the betterment
of the community.
If the $10,000 goal is reached
the money will be alloted accord
ing to the fund requests. But when
the contributions are totaled, the
requests will be cut proportionally
if the fund falls short of the
$10,000, Mr. Zinn explained.

Art Mooney Provides
Music, Humor at Sbisa
By RUTH TIPTON
Miscellaneous Editor
Art Mooney, a top band attrac
tion of the nation, was on hand at
the all-college dance Saturday
night in Sbisa Hall to present a
variety of the best dance music,
spiced with romantic ballads and
comedy capers.
Dancers on the crowded floor
were completely won over by Art’s
winning personality plus his excel
lent arrangements of popular bal
lads and novelty selections.
One featured attraction was al
most as much a surprise to the
bandleader as anyone else. Vocal
ist Marietta Cox, who was well
received by the audience, was ful
filling her first engagement with
Mooney’s band.
“We are always on the look-out
for new talent when we are on
tour,” Mooney said. “Friday night
at Louan’s in Dallas we heard
that there were some vocalists
there and Miss Cox was one of
them. We liked her so much that
we brought her with us.”
Miss Cox is employed by the
Liberty Broadcasting Company of
Dallas. She said that her future
plans in connection with the hand
were indefinite.
Dancers were surprised to hear
that the singer was a new addi
tion to the group. The band had
had no time to work out arrange
ments for her, but that fact was
not at all apparent judging by her
performance.
Alan Foster, who has been with
the band about a year, was a fav
orite performer with his rendi
tions of ever-popular romantic bal
lads.
Featured comedian was Kerwin
Somerville, whose capers rocked
the hall with laughter and ap
plause. “Let Her Go, I Said, Let
Her Go” and “The Man Who
Comes to Our House Every Day”
were two of his most well-liked
selections.
Somerville has been with Mooney
for four years. He has worked
with various top bands, including
Tommy Tucker.
Art Mooney’s popularity began
to reach topnotch rating in 1945
after he received a discharge from
the Army. He organized a band.
His performances were so popular
that the engagement turned into
a nine-month run, and Art Mooney
was established as a top bandlead
er.
Only one instrumentalist now
with the group, Jimmy Ginolfi,
was with Mooney when he organ
ized his original band.
Since his sudden burst to popu
larity, Art has toured all over the
country. His touring company now
numbers 15. Next stop for the
group is Corpus Christi. After
working through the Southwest,
they will return to New York
around Christmas.
“I am impressed by the extreme
politeness of' the Aggies,” Mr.
Mooney said. “They act like true
southern gentlemen. I only wish
I could have seen the game this
afternoon after all I’ve heard
about that fighting Aggie spirit.”
The Mooney Band presented a
concert in Guion Hall preceding
the dance.
