The internationally known Unit
ed States Air Force Band featur
ing the “Singing Sergeants” will
perform at White Coliseum, March
22 at 8 p. m. This will be the final
Town Hall presentation for the
semester.
Directed by Col. George S. How
ard, the band has won acclaim
thi’oughout the United States and
in many foreign countries. It is
composed of professional musicians
whose civilian backgrounds range
from symphony orchestras to
famous dance bands.

music for the USAF, holds five
college degrees in music. He has
a Ph. D. from the Chicago Con
servatory of Music, and has been
active as a player, soloist, com
poser, conductor and teacher of

Outstanding among the band’s
many achievements is its adap

perform as a 100-man military
band, a 90-piece symphony orches
tra, a 25 - voice glee club or
numerous chamber and instru
mental groups.
Twenty - five of its members
make up the Singing Sergeants, a
precision vocal ensemble. This
group will present part of the con
cert at A&M. The Sergeants are
directed by Capt. Robert L.
Landers, a graduate of the East
man School of Music and formerly
assistant conductor of the San
Carlo Opera Company. The group
boasts an active repertoire of
more than 200 selections.
When not singing, the members
of the Singing Sergeants play
instruments in the band. The sing
ers have been featured on the
“Air Force Hour” over national
radio broadcasts for several years.
They are currently on “Serenade in
Blue” over 2,139 radio stations.
They have, in the past, appeared
on Ed Sullivan’s “Toast of the
Town,” the “Ken Murray Show,”
the “Faye Emerson Show,” and
other television programs. Last
year they appeared as a special
attraction of Town Hall.

Daily Texan Staff
Retreats to Woods
By JIM BOWER
Battalion News Editor
There was a noticeable absence at the Southwestern Journalism
Congi-ess at SMU this past weekend.
Willie “College Yell” Morris, editor of The Daily Texan, and his
staff failed to show for the annual meeting of student journalists.
It was mentioned to one of the journalism professors from UT that
perhaps Willie had been conveniently saddled with a final exam to
keep him away, since freedom of the press was one of the main topics
of the student meeting.
The professor replied that there had been no restraint put on
Willie but that Willie himself had arranged a retreat in the woods
outside Austin for member of the Texan staff so that they could com
mune with nature.
Why, Willie, on that old gray stone, thus for the length of
half a day. Why, Willie, sit you thus alone and dream your time
away? One impulse from a vernal wood, may teach you more of
man; of moral evil and of good, than all your regents, can.

We see where the TCU Skiff is running a unique contest. So
far, the contest, “If I Were Skiff Editor for a Day” has brought noth
ing but a few lines of garbled poetry. Not wishing to be left out, we
decided that we would enter the contest.
If I were Skiff editor for day, I would .... oh, we can’t say
Turning to the editorial page of the SMU Campus we see where
Joe Dave Scott, Campus editor has defined the role of the college news
paper.
In defining his statement that the Campus is a public relations
media, Scott says that the role of the paper is to present a variety of
stories that would be of interest to those off the campus as well as
those enrolled here (SMU).
On page two we find a headline reading “Delta Theta Phi to Here
Wade.”
