Art for
Aggies’ Sake
BY WELTON JONES
This seventh week of school now completed, this column
finds a very excellent cultural season nearing maturity.
Several local groups and series have brought outstanding
entertainment to local stages and promise more of the
same. /
The coming week, for instance, will bring a good ex
ample of this, including the first date conflict of the year.
DRAMA—I hrst on the agenda for next week will be
the Aggie Players’ three night run of “The Hasty Heart”,
which opens on the Memorial Student Center stage Monday
night.
The play and its cast have been adequately noted in
these pages for the past few out of local territory, another
weeks and now there seems
little more that this column
should add.
The play itself is certainly
engaging- material, or at least
that part exposed to this column.
The cast, while somewhat short
on experience, is long on desire,
as a sports writer might say. And
dominating it all is the organi
zational genius of C. K. Esten,
who, as director for the Players,
seems to have a knack for making
quite a bit out of next to nothing.
At any rate, one could do much
worse than to take a chance and
purchase a view of this effort.
VARIETY — Next week also
heralds the arrival here Tuesday
night of a package of performers
which should bring joy to the
heart of the most discerning
modern music fan.
Appearing under the auspices
of the Stu'dent Activitiies Depart
ment, but not in connection with
the Town Hall series, will be
Carmen McRae, the Hi-Los and
the orchestra of Ted Heath. Ad
mission will be $2 and $2.50, re
served and $1.25 general admis
sion .
Miss McRae, a singer in the
best tradition of Billie Holiday,
Sarah Vaughn and Ella Fitz
gerald, is a native of Jamaica.
She appears on records made by
the Decca Company.
A rising young vocal group, the
Ili-Los seem to have taken over
harmonic quartet sound experi
ments where the Four Freshmen
left off some years ago. They
also record (on Columbia) and
have many radio and television
appearances to their credit.
Ted Heath and his organization
were warmly received here last
year when they backed Nat Cole
in a show. Reportedly some of
their fondest inemories are of
Texas and of A&M. At any rate,
the group, which is an institution
in Great Britain, is back this
year on another exchange tour.
BALLET — To range slightly
British institution will appear in
Houston next weekend for five
performances, in the personage of
The Royal Ballet, ox 1 , as it was
known until this year, The Sad
ler’s Wells Ballet.
The incompaxable Margot
Fonteyn will be in the midst of
her 15th season as prima ballerina
for the company, and will be
backed by such notables as
Michael Somes, Rowena Jackson,
Svetland Bexiosova and many
othei’s.
Russel W. Duke, senior indus
trial education major from Gar
land, has been awarded the Alvin
M. Smith Scholarship for Indus
trial Distx-ibution for 1957-58, it
was announced yesterday.
The scholai'ship. is awai'ded in
memory of Alvin M. Smith, for
merly secretary-treasurer and
president of the Southern Supply
and Machinery Distributors’ As
sociation. It was established to
aid worthy students by lessening
the financial burden and t|> en
courage the choice of industrial
distribution as a career.
