‘Notable Books’ At Libraries
The 1961 Notable Books List
will be available at Cushing Me
morial Library and its branches
next week preparation for Nation
al Library Week, Apr. 8-14, said
Robert A. Houze, director of the
A&M library system.
The list is a selection of those
books published in 1961 which con
tribute significantly to literature
and general knowledge.
Both the list and National Li
brary Week are designed to draw

Civilians Urged To Attend
Student Government Meeting
O
All civilian students interested
in campus government and the
furthering of civilian student body
interests have been urged by Reed
Armstrong, ‘62, to attend a meet
ing of the Civilian Student Gov

Thursday at 7:30 p.m. in Room
229 of the Chemistry Building.
Purpose of the meeting is to
encourage civilian students to file
for student government positions
and support the campaigns of ci-

recognition and representation of

campus. The committee points
out that civilian students comprise

books.
Books on the list were selected
by the Notable Books Council,
Adult Services Division of the
American Library Association.
Thirty-eight libraries from all
sections of the country assisted
in compiling the list. Each year,
the books listed win the majority
of the national literary awards.
“The books are exceptionally
worthwhile by virture of their lit
erary excellence, informational
value and importance,” Houze
said.
This year, Cushing has all of the
books except six. They are pres
ently being ordered so that they
may be on hand for next week's
observance.
Henry L. Scott, noted piano-
humorist, brings his Broadway
show, “Concerto For Fun,” to
Guion Hall Monday and Tuesday
beginning at 8 p.m.
Scott, called by Life Magazine
the “Will Rogers of the piano,”
concludes this season’s scheduled
Town Hall Series presentations
with a one-man concert of music
intermingled with his own brand
of humor.
Reserve seats are $3 and gen
eral admission tickets are $2.50
Reared in Tivoli-on-Hudson,
N.Y., Scott started playing the
piano at the age of 4. He studied
piano through high school and
graduated from Syracuse Univer
sity as a piano major. It was
there that Scott got the idea of
combining humor with concert
piano.
After attending the Mannes
School of Music, N.Y., he spent
eight years auditioning, doing or
chestral work, trouping, teaching,
studying and doing odd jobs in
his efforts to develop concert hu
mor.
Since then Scott has spent the
last 10 years traveling widely in
the U.S. and Canada. He has ap
peared twice in Carnegie and Town
Hall. His symphony appearances
include the Toronto and Rochester
Symphonies, the Buffalo Philhar
monic and the Cincinnati Orches
tra.
Scott has made films for Para
mount and Warner Bros, and has
recorded several albums.
Scott writes all of his musical
sketches and arranges most of the
popular compositions played on his
program.
He is also a master of control
ling his audiences; never tempera
mental, Scott finds it hard to per
form before movie or television
cameras. He feels the eyes, ears
and laughter are essential ele
ments that mean his audiences are
having a good time.

DP 0 Where to watch girls
Although girl watching may be practiced in any place
and at any time girls are encountered (see above), certain
locations deserve special mention for their consistently
high levels of both quality and quantity. The east side of
Fifth Avenue between 51st and 59th Streets in New
York City is perhaps the girl watching center of the
world. Other such locations are: Via Veneto in Rome,
Champs Elysees in Paris, Oude Zyds Achterburgwal in
Amsterdam and Sugarbush, Vermont (January through
March). Experienced girl watchers recommend these
places with utter confidence (just as experienced smokers
recommend Pall Mall for complete smoking pleasure).
Compare all three! Smoke "traveled” through fine tobacco tastes best.
Pall Mali’s
natural mildness
is so good
to your taste!
So smooth, so satisfying,
so downright smokcable!
See the difference! With Pall Mall, you get that famous length
of the finest tobaccos money can buy. Pall Mali’s famous length
travels and gentles the smoke naturally ... over, under, around
and through Pall Mall's fine, mellow tobaccos. Makes it mild
.. . but does not filter out that satisfying flavor!
