Committee Issues Call for
Music to Use in
Spring Play.
With work on the choruses for
the Kosmet Klub spring show
starting last night, calls for lyrics
and times for the production were
issued yesterday by Joe Alter and
Charles McCarl, members of the
Klub in charge of music for "The
Bar O Ranch."
Several students and local musi
cians are now at work writing
music for the show, but material
is needed immediately, Alter de
clared. Special consideration will
be given to love songs and lyrics
and rumbas, according to McCarl.
"The musical aspect of the show
offers unusual possibilities for a
great variety of tunes and lyrics,"
Alter declared last night after a
meeting of the Klub, "and, in all
probability, the choruses will em
ploy as many tunes as are suitable
for the character of the show."
Work on the choruses, under the
direction of Ralph Ireland, started
last night with a series of rehear
sals to select the final groupings
from the applicants chosen at the
tryouts held last week. John Zeil
inger, member of the Klub, is as
sisting Ireland in his work.
Jack Thompson, president of the
Klub. asked that all students in
tending to write music for the
show submit their material to him
or at the offices of the Klub in the
basement of IT hall by Thursday
afternoon.

He likened some of the groups

like professional trios while others
sounded like groups of three men
each singing a different song at
the same time. Amusing but cer
tainly not music. All in all the
widest range of variation in the
way of entertainment was offered
by men for the show that has been
offered for some time and much
of it was real talent." added Yenne.
