Wrapped Up In College
In the rapid pace of campus life, college stu
dents fall easily and naturally into a pattern of
collegiate thinking and collegiate activities. We
tend to ignore what goes on outside our realm of
college life. This might be due to a number of
factors.
In the first place, college students are
wrapped up In classes, reports, research, party
ing:, planning parties and an endless list of extra- .
curricular activities. There seems to be little
time left for concentration on world affairs.
There is also the feeling- among college students
that so long as they are enrolled in college there
is a certain amount of security which will he
lost upon leaving school We believe and this
should not be interpreted to include everyone
for exceptions occur that students mistakenly
believe that oblivion to international events in
some way detaches them.
Unfortunately this is not true. As much as we,
college students, hate to admit error, I think this
is one case when older persons are justified in
criticizing college youth. In some instances they
might realize that lethargy toward anything out
side an immediate sphere of activities no longer
is a key to success.
One hundred and fifty years ago Great
Britain, perched on a pedestal, could observe
with satisfaction that she was the world's lead
ing power. She was master of the world and
pursued a policy of imperialism through use of
power politics backed with force of arms in
cluding the world's greatest navy.

turned to the campus, there were rumors that
anything up to and including a campus riot might
result from student antagonism towards separated
parking. Why, the students asked, did the faculty
as a group deserve the choice parking spots on the
campus? The dispute sputtered and sparked for
two months but now everyone seems to be keep
ing his complaints to himself.
At the beginning of the semester students
used to stop members of The Daily Nebraskan
staff and scream that something must be done
about this atrocious problem. Now complaints
come only once in a while and then they lack
the fervor they used to have. Does this quiet
ing of student feeling- show that the situation
really is not too bad? Or does it show that,
although students still feel that things could be
better, they have resigned themselves to present
arrangements?
I think it is due to both. When students re

you had the opportunity to hear this great band.
Mclntyre's music was smooth, suave and ex
tremely danceable. His selections covered the
field as far as jan is concerned, and his ar
rangements were tops.
It's important to know something of the back
ground of Hal Mclntyre and his crew in order to
understand and appreciate his band. Hal played
with Benny Goodman before the war, and while
in service he played with the famous Glenn Miller
organization. After the war Hal played with a
recording band and in 1946 organized his own
crew. Nothing exceptional was heard from his
outfit until 1948 when Mclntyre's band reached
the status of a "name band." This past year Mc-
"Pal Joey" and "Babes in
Arms" Rodgers, in collaboration with the late
Lornez Hart, gave musicales the fully developed
quality of a well vritten dramatic play.
The conception of the musical show as an
organized combination of music, lyrics, story
and dance was developed in Rodgers' later hits,
'Oklahoma," "Carousel" and "South Pacific."
The new LP album contains a selection of
Rodgers' greatest tunes. Listen to "Where or
When," "It Might as Well be Spring," '"With a
Song in My Heart," "Lover," "My Heart Stood
Still" and "If I Loved You." These songs and
many more are blended together in a magnificent
orchestration by Guy Luypaerts.

that covers every mood of melody from the hi

Playing with Miller's band left a deep impression
has also played extended engagements at the Steel
Pier in Atlantic City and at the Roosevelt hotel
in New Orleans.
The Mclntyre orchestra is a well-knit group.
The band considers itself a team rather than a
group of individuals. It is interesting to note
that several "name bands" have fallen apart be
cause they were built around individuals who
suddenly left the group,
on HaL and it is very noticeable in his style of
playing. Mclntyre does not copy Miller's style as
some bands are doing, but he does play the smooth
and danceable music that Miller made popular.
No composer of our time offers so varied a
career and such material for the "painting of a
symphonic portrait" as does Rodgers on the new
LP record, "A Symphonic Portrait of Richard
Rodgers." Here is a selection from Rodgers' great
est scores gay, stirring, sentimental and sophisticated.

Duke is on a concert tour, and man, what a

cludes Bellson, Tisol, and Smith, the concert
includes Sarah Vaughn and Nat "King" Cole
and his trio.
"I had a nice talk with Eddie Bellson about
the tour. He told me that the band played with
the New York Symphony while in New York
and that one of the feature numbers, "Harlem
Song," was terrific with the strings."

around a phone and this is what happened:
Bobby, Decker that is, tried his luck first.
When a girl answered, he asked who it was and
then asked If she wanted to go out for a ccp of
coffee. Naturally, she wanted to know who it
wac.
"WelL J would you like? You name your
favorite football player and this is it."
She once again asked who it was.
WelL this is Bobby Decker. You don't think an imposter, he told her, "You don't believe me,
so, nun7 what anout ft.ay uurtis; ao you Know

The next call was rather unfortunate. A

that she would call someone else. The next

"Bobby Reynolds, what are you trying to prove?"
