ALIi-STATE MUSIC
MORE DIFFICULT
THAN FORMERLY
To some students at least it
seems that music for the high
school course grows more difficult
each year and with such composi
tions as "So This is Dvorak,"
"Peer Gynt's Nightmare" and
"The Narrator," all by Director
Buchtel, on the band program,
there is some basis for this belief.
The fact that many students re
turn for several years and the in
struction is constantly growing
more finely co-ordinated balances
the trend, however, and makes it
almost a necessity.
Some rather complicated orches
tra numbers used for the first time
include "Andante Cantablle" by
Tschaikowsky, "DDance of the
Moorish Slaves" by Verdi, "Turk
ish March," by Beethoven, "Bac
chanale" from Samson and Delilah
by Saint Saens. These pieces are
a test for the skill of any musi
cian. A decided change in chorus mu
sic for this season has brought
forward selections such as "The
Three Kings" by Healey Willas,
"My Love if but Within Thee," by
Durone, "Chanson" by Janequin
Damrosch, "Celtic Mymn," by
Robertson, and "Out of the Si
lence" by Cyril Jenkins.
Naturally there are many light
numbers such as "The Old Woman
and the Peddler" by Nebraska's
Hazel Gertrude Kinscella. The
work of the students so far and
the quality of music indicate an
excellent program for the final
concert July 9 at Gratn Memorial
hall.

HELEN STOWELL
MANAGES GIRLS
DORM 5 SEASONS
Characterizing the all-state high
school music course as "a stepping
stone between high school and col
lege," Miss Helen Stowell, for five
years manager of the girls dormi
tory, points out that "It teaches
the cirls how to live with a etoud
and gives them a taste of college
life." Miss Stowell, whose home is
at Colorado Springs, is optimistic
over benefits of the weekly musi
cals for girls only being held each
Wednesday at the dormitory. She
feels they will brine' to lizht much
talent of which participants might
otherwise not become aware. Lila
Mae Jackson is physical education
director.

Five Speech Majors Work
During Vacation in
Connecticut.
Five university students are
turning their University Players
experience to good use this sum
mer and have joined Charles H.
Rogers, of the dramatics depart
ment faculty, at the Plymouth
Playhouse, Milford, Connecticut.
Mr. Rogers, one of the founders
of the troup which operates the
Playhouse, once more resumed his
duties as director of technical pro
duction last Monday with the
opening performance of throe
from Noel Coward's series of one
act plays entitled "Tonight at
8:30." His able assistant is Don
ald Giffin, Nebraska junior, who
has been made a regular member
of the production staff.
As apprentices, Jack Aesch-
backer, WaTdcmar Mueller, Mar
garet Carpenter, and Marjorie
Bannister, before the season is
over, will have done all the back
stage work connected with the
theater. Mr. Aeschbacker special
izes in technical production,
whereas the others will be cast in
plays whenever they are needed.
The troup was founded three
years ago as an auti-depression
measure by a number of Yale dra
matics students. They proceded to
give summer entertainment to va
cationists throughout northern
Michigan. Later, permission was
obtained for the use of the "Old
Congregational Church" of Mil
ford (built in the early 1800's)
from which the congregation had
moved to newer quarters. Since
then, the Plymouth Playhouse has
become one of the most popular of
eastern summer theaters.
The university's representatives
have distinguished themselves dur
ing the past season in their work
on campus productions. Donald
Giffen was in complete charge of
technical production on "The Sen
ator's Husband." Miss Carpen
ter's work in "The Shining Hour"
and "The Bishop Misbehaves" was
outstanding, and Miss Bannister's
characterizations in "Personal Ap
pearance" and "As You Like It"
were equally well done. As Pe-
Text Books and Supplies
for the
Rural School
TEACHERS, we cater especially to the needs of the rural
school. We carry an extensive line of the texts required as
well as a very large selection for your library.
We shall be happy to have you come in our store and
