Checking up at Walts, I found some neat new numbers that you might be in terested in. For instance, Harry James' "Mr. Five by Five," kind of on the "Serenade in Blue" order. Another good record of his is "Daybreak," based on the theme "Mardi Gras" from Ferdi Grofe's "Mississippi Suite." The vocal is by Johnny McAfee. The other side's just as good with "Manhattan Serenade" from "Man hattan Suite" by Louis Alter. The King sisters give on "Kill Kille" (Indian Love Talk) and a less arty, more rhythmic ver sion of "Daybreak." Krupa really came across, this time with a super number for dancing, "'Murder,' he says." Other side brings Anita O'Day and "Massachusetts," with more smooth timing and solid sending. And have you heard? About the new needle that has 4,000 plays? It's put out by the Metal lurgical Division of the Pfanstiehl Chemical Co. at Waukegan, 111. Worth looking into for you sharp eners of the cactus variety of 'Member "Shostie" from last week? How'd you like his Sev enth? Or did you listen? Well, we're giving you another chance at him on Monday. Wish you'd come. It's the Harmony Hour at 4:30, and not the Seventh this time, but the Fifth. (Wouldn't it be convenient to call Englisn themes just the Fifth or the Sev enth or Opus No. 1?) faculty recitals given in the Union at 3 on Sunday afternoons are of interest both to the music students, who get a certain satis faction from hearing and seeing what their own teachers can do, and to the general public. Last Sunday's audience, composed of both, gave the first faculty recital of the season a very nice and well deserved reception. Donald Glattly, tenor, opened the program with two Reger selec tions and three Strauss numbers. His consistently good tone and ar tistic presentation contributed to a fine performance and brought him enthusiastic applause. A new member of the faculty, Miss Marjorie Delange, cellist, more than proved the wisdom of her appointment. She delighted her audience with a clearness of phrasing and a musicianly inter pretation as well as a "mighty mooth" cello. Last on the program waa Miss Marguerite Klinker of the piano department, whose performance of Library Show Exhibits Boohs By Nebrashans The books featured in the show case in the entrance hall of the library this week are all by Ne braska v liters.
