CHS Choral Groups
Present Show Tonight
“An hour and a half of good
vocal entertainment” is slated for
8 p. m. today at A&M Consolidated
High School Auditorium as choral
groups at the school present the
Annual Night of Music, according
to Robert L. Boone, director of
music.
Residents of the area are invited
to observe and hear the groups
blend their voices after a year of
preparation for the climax of their
efforts. No admission will be
charged.
Participating in the program will
be four choruses, several soloists
and a trio of boys known at the
“Tritones”. Members of the trio are
Mark Luther, Bill Armistead and
Tommie Letbetter.
A mixed chorus of high schoolers,
mixed chorus of junior high stu
dents and both a boys’ and girls’
chorus of junior high students are
listed on the program, in addition
to the soloists.
“Bright and lively numbers will
compose the program and Boone
promises to exclude “long hair”.
Broadway Show Time, hit tunes
and popular numbers will be offer
ed, Boone said.
To climax the night of music,
all chorus groups will combine their
120 voices to present Fred Wai’-
ing’s “Battle Hymn of the Repub
lic.
Maestros will be Boone and
Frank Coulter, director of junior
high music.
“Long hair” music will be pre
sented during a program Sunday
afternoon. But the other kind of
music will be emphasized just as
much then, Boone says, for both
heavy and light numbers are plan
ned for the program at 3 p. m. in
the Memorial Student Center Ball
room.

Included will be selections rang

55-piece Concert Band will be the
performer Sunday afternoon.
Like tonight’s program, there
will be no admission charge. And
the Ballroom was obtained so the
audience can listen in cool, relaxed
comfort.
On the light side, piano soloist
Johnny Turner will play “Concerto
in Jazz” along with the band.
Other numbers on the varied pro-
gram include “Biver Jordan,”
“Meditations from Thais,” “Tribute
to Benny Goodman” and the “North
Sea Overture.”
Ernest Tanzer, Tom Ivy and
Junius Clarke will raise their two
trumpets and a trombone, respec
tively, to do “Concerto Grosso.”
Off the Cuff-
What Goes
On Here
College fire-fighters were called
last nig*ht shortly after 7 to check
on a blaze in the Academic Build
ing. While students wrung their
hands, and the stalwart smoke-
trackers searched for their map of
the campus, a janitor calmly lo
cated the fire—which consisted of
a half-dozen smouldering paper
towels in the basement of the.build
ing. Now finals can’t be that
tough—or can they?
Come And Get It!
LOUISVILLE, Ky.—Firemen at
tending a luncheon given by the
local Fire Prevention Council had
to leave their food and race away
in a fire truck left outside for
just such an emergency.
Somebody had failed to prevent
a fire.
Cooking food had caught fire ih
a home. No serious damage, ex
cept for the cooling effect on the
firemen’s dinners, was reported.

LOEFFLER STAYS
(Continued from Page 1)
one which Loeffler flatly denies,
was in paragraph 2(b) of the SWC
findings: “A round trip airline
ticket from College Station, Texas
to Providence, R. I., was illegally
provided for a basketball player
by a representative of Texas A&M
College at Christmas, 1955.”
The president in answer to the
charge comments, “It is alleged
that Coach Loeffler or his agent
gave Alex Roberts the ticket for
this trip. This, Coach Loeffler
flatly denies. No substantiating
evidence has accompanied this
charge.”
He continues, “The rules of fair
play demand, under such circum
stances, that Coach Loeffler be
considered innocent until proof to

Regardless of what action the
SWC or NCAA takes, a precedent
has been set by school officials in
hacking the accused to the hilt and
saying publicly and for the record,
“We find no fault with our man.”
Now its up to the NCAA as to
wlicit disposition is to be made of
the case and they haven’t been
favorable with their decisions con
cerning A&M in the past.
