The current Esquire discusses the sit uation in the jargen characteristic of such articles. a It is pointed out. in the article, that many composers of classical music were really exponents of jazz as we know it. That is, pnrts of their works are scored so that they can only be played properly by a distinctly "hot" trumpet, trombone, or whatever. Further, a recent movement among devotees of "hot" music (Attention, Poppa!) to band to gether for so9alled "jam" ses slons in which a bunch of "hef musicians congregate and have orgies of "hot" music. It is from these sessions that the unknown bands of "hot phonograph re cordings are recruited. That is, most all band that record novel ties and socalled "race" music, are pickup organizations of the outstanding hot" musicians available, regardless of the straight music they may regu larly play with their own bands. The author derlares that there is less professional jeulousy among hot" musicians than among any other class of performer.". For in stance. Jack Teagarden has a reg ular army of trombone proteges, all of whom he plugs as often as possible. And so on down the line. In conclusion, the writer says that hot" musicians are the truest crusaders for the jazz cause, and will keep it alive. Add things we would like io see Somebody punting on the Thames.

With all the accessories save the howling pack in the stands, Coach D. X. Bible will trot out his forces once again Saturday afternoon for one of those condensed scrim mages. Last week the prep coaches of the state witnessed such a get-together in which the first eleven gave a glazy perfor mance and came thru with a 24-0 win.

Fleet feet dominated the play as An drews, Dodd, and Ball swept the ends consistently. A new find as a ball carrier gave about as much satisfaction as any thing.
