Friday, November 1, 1940 DAILY NEBRASKAN UN gets photography service Faculty recital (Rs&joAjcL By Bob Phillips to be held Sunday in Union ballroom Column is late this week. Seems that six weeks exams, football games, and record reviewing don't mix. Well, anyway, there wasn't anything outstanding in the way of records last week. There seems to he a scarcity of outstanding hits since Barnet's "Pompton Turnpike." Walt's say the sale of all boogie-woogie records have skyrocketed since 'Beat Me Daddy." SWING. Down the Road a Piece Celery Stalks at Midnight Will Bradley Columbia. The A side is another one of Bradley boogie woogie numbers. It has an interesting vocal start however. The second side is one of the most attractive tunes I've heard in a long time. I like the boogie piano on the first side. Swinging on C Let's Try Again J. Lunccford Columbia. "Swinging on C" is tune played In very fast tempo with some wild but very nice trumpet. The other side is fair. Vocal by Dan Grisson. Special Delivery Stomp Keeping Myself for You Artie Shaw Victor. This is the debut of Artie and his Gramercy Five. They consist of clarient, trumpet, drums, harp sichord, guitar, and bass. The use of the harpsichord is rather un usual but it is a very effective. in strument for swing. I like it. On the first of "Special Deliv ery" he gets off to a Kirby riff but comes out into a distinctive manner of his own. As a whole it's a pretty good record; I like partic ularly Butterfield's muted trumpet on the first side. The World is Mad Parts 1 & 2 Count Bafie Okeh I'm getting sick of these two sided jobs. On this one both the Count and Lester Young on tenor get off some good licks. This rec ord is the best the Count's done lately. SWEET. Five O'clock Whistle So Long Ella Fitzgerald Decca. The first side is easily the most effective vocal rendition of "5 O'clock' that I haye heard. The second is a good rendition of a very uninspiring piece. It's Three O'clock The Night Has a Thousand Eyes Russ Morgan Decca. I would like to know whether Bobby Byrne stole his idea of "The Right Time" from the A side of this record or vice versa. Nice rendition by Jimmy Lewis. Russ himself does the other side, a pop tune. W ish I could talk that effec tively. If I Had You You Made Me Love You Una Mae Carlisle Bluebird. This is the second recording fea turing Fats Waller's songstress and orchestra. The orchestra how ever is Fats Waller. Sounds rather difficult doesn't it? It's a little better than average. The cost of an education at Harvard university has increased 280 percent in the last century. The median education for the U. S. as a whole is completion of the elementary school.

If not a haven of virtuosos, it certainly is an en chanting place. Stop in front some time. From third floor, the corner loom, one can usually hear a huge, engulf ing basso pounding away at some thing about brave hearts asleep in the deep. And next door to the potent bass, a beautiful, blonde flutist lightly plays of "Two Gui tars." I find the two a perfectly mismatched duet. In the rest of the top floor chambers, the omni present piano plays. In one room it tinkles merrily in songs about spring, birds, flowers and stuff. In another it thunders and crashes J3 jES Three Dramatic Sketches "Twenty Years Later" "Just Off Piccadilly" "There's Money Coming to You" Presented by University Dept. of Speech Saturday, Nov. 2 8:00 P. M. ..i.. I 1 ,- - . - mi n i .. i . s i V thru Rachmaninoff. With all the other music beating alien rhythms in their ears, how do they do it? Oh, the second floor. Then down on second floor it's saturated with sopranos, prima donnas all. The combined songs present an interesting sequence of words, something like push-button turning. To a humble layman such as I, the music of a dozen other songs would be slightly discon certing. I think that floor one houses the brass section. Those of us over in U hall at 8 every morning def initely get wind of a trumpeting trio to the south. Somebody down there does an excellent job of ma nipulating a slide trombone. Oc casionally, when I pass, I hear Sunday Journal unit Star. A lot of machinery to take a picture of a microscopic subject, but it represent.0; the most modern and complete set of photomicro graphic equipment in the Middle West. Prof. F. W.

Sinitli designated head of traveling drawings exhibit Prof. L. B.

Consisting of 26 drawings from beginning design classes in archi tectural schools all over the coun try, the exhibit will be shown in cities throughout the United States as well as parts of Canada. Photo graphs of the actual drawings will make up the collection. "Nights in' Napoli" suddenly switch to "1 11 Never Smile Again.' Then, probably when the teacher re-enters the room, the tune switches gracefully back to the more sedate, The swinging trom bonist has a brother cutter-upper, a blasting trumpeter seems always to be stretching for the high ones on "Sugar Blues." Oh yes, it's a great place to spend your time if you want to go gradually bats. Have Your College Memories Preserved! Have Your Picture Taken at Townsendys Immediately!
