THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
Wednesday, February 25, 1948
E NIMBLE
SPANIEL
by Sam Warren
One of our favorite personali
ties, the indomitable Maggie Huff,
breezed in just in time yesterday
to provide a starting point for this
column's deadline. Discarding her
left-arm cast two weeks ahead of
schedule (she broke her arm just
in time to deal herself out of a
"Petrified Forest" role), Maggie is
now spending her cigarette money
for gaily-printed silk scarves to
use as slings, until the arm is com
pletely mended. Her "pure silk
slings" at $3.95 a throw prove the
merchandiser s hold over woman s
vanity, wouldn't you say?
As a rule, deans of women are
not given to red faces, but Maggie
held a mirror to one of Dean Mar-
jorie Johnston's we're told. Some
what perplexed that the expurgat
ed stage version of "Man Who
Came to Dinner" produced at
Temple theater in December did
not follow the completely white
washed movie version. Dean John
ston expounded at some length
about the necessity for an actor
to assume the total frame of mind
of the character he portrays. Mag
gie, who played a superficial ac
tress of questionable moral stan
dards, interrupted to say that she,
lor one, had not found that neces
sary. The blushing apologies re
portedly came thick and fast!
(It's happened to us all. Miss
Johnston).
The balcony-full of university
students who heard violinist Isaac
Stern in a recital at St. Paul's
church last Thursday heard one
of the outstanding solo violin per
formances to come Lincoln's way
in several seasons. Playing on the
Lincoln Fine Arts series, Stern
displayed a technical mastery and
an incredible amount of emotional
lervor united with genuine art
istry.
His rendition of the Lalo "Sym
phonic Espancle" ulone was worth
the highest ticket-price. But add
to this a delicate and sympathetic
Mozart sonata, an energetic Bach
sonata, and one of the most stimu
lating group of modern works to
be presented in Lincoln, and one
can see why the audience was
electrified by the 27-year-old
artist.
Students who attended the re
cital at a special student rate,
would heartily welcome Stern
back next season, say, on the Lin
coln Symphony orchestra series.
If the symphony board waits sev
eral seasons to engage him, he will
be so firmly established as one
of the nation's top-notch favorites,
through just such recitals as he
gave here, that the board will
have to pay him five times the fig
ure that they'd pay to return him
next season.
Those of you who enter cereal
box-top contests or write fan mail
might try sending letters to the
symphony board at 325 Stuart
building!
Miner's March
To Get Concert
Premier Soon
The University ROTC sym
phonic band will give Harry Min
er's "Huskerland March" its first
concert reading Sunday at 3 p.m.
when the band appears in its
annual mid-winter concert under
Don Lentz' direction.
Miner's march was played for
the first time at a Nebraska game
when the Huskers played Kansas
University at Lawrence this fall.
Altho written in 1939 when it
won first place in a pep song
contest, the march was not pub
lished until recently. A former
Scarlet quarterback, Miner was
an admirer of Gen John J. Per
shing to whom the march is dedi
cated. Highlighting the program will
be the "Suite Francaise" of Darius
Milhaud which weaves a sym
phonic composition around folk
tunes of the province s of Norman
die, He de France, Alsace-Lorraine
and Provence. Milhaud, now resi
dent in the United States where
he has instructed at Mills College
in Okland, Calif., once stated, "I
wanted the young Americans to
hear the popular melodies of those
parts of France where their fath
ers and brothers fought to defeat
