Marine Band Will Appear In Coliseum BY SAM WARREN. The United States Marine Band which plays tomorrow evening at the coliseum seems to have a corner on "being there first." Not only was it the first mili tary band in the nation (it has performed by official command for every president since George Washington) but it was also the first band to broadcast when ra dio was born some 25 years ago! Thru its years of radio contact with countless listeners, it has secured its position among music enthusiasts as the nation's out standing symphonic military band. During its long history, the band has done considerable touring but this year marks the first tour since the war. As always, special approval by the president was granted the band in order to leave Washington, where its concerts on the steps of the capitol have been highlights of the city's musical life for more than a century. Soloist Featured. Featured with the band tomor row will be Robert Isele, trom bone soloist, who is one of the younger members of the band. Because of his technique and mu sicianship critics have rated him a top trombonist of the day. He has been soloist since his enlist ment in 1937. The band will play for school children of Lincoln at a free con cert tomorrow afternoon. Admis sion tickets have been distributed thru the grade schools. Prof. C. M. Elliott Named to Council Advisory Position Curtis M.

Tonight when you hear a train whistling, its bell clanging, and the Husker conductor calling loudly, "All aboard, for . the Jay Hawk Special" you'll know that Chattanooga has nothing on-UN.

Lueth Speaks To Scottsbluff Medical Group New motivations to enter the nursing profession must be given young women if the present "alarming decrease" in the num ber entering is to be halted, Dean Harold C. Lueth of the College of Medicine said In an address given members of the Nebraska State Nurses' Association at Scottsbluff, Thursday. It is significant, he continued, that despite vexations and uncer tainties, the ideal of service has made nurses carry on through the years. Nursing School Dean Lueth advised acquainting college women with the possibility of continuing their academic train ing by entering a school of nurs ing, and said that a more direct appeal along accepted university teaching principles could be added to nursing courses. "Much cf the older perjudice of vocationalism and trade school technique will be dissipated by these new approaches," he said. See LUETH, rage 4, Junior class presidential election results will not be an nounced until the Student Council judiciary committee rules on the validity of the entire election.

Music School Faculty Lauds Pianist Novaes BY SAM WARREN. The return of Guiomar Novaes to Lincoln has brought forth en thusiastic anticipation of her Mon day piano night recital from three school of mur!c faculty members, Elizabeth Tierney, Earnest Harri son and Arothur E. Westbrook, dean of the school. Caught between her classes in harmony and theory, Miss Tierney looked up from her desk work with a smile to recall that "Novaes was just a young musician when she was here last but she was received with utmost enthusiasm. I didn't get to hear that particular recital because I was called away from the city, and I always re gretted it becavse th reports at that time seemed to forecast her present successes." Queen Reigns At Ag 'Formal' Dance Tonight Presentation of the Farmer's Formal Queen and her six at tendants at the dance in Activities hall tonight will climax Ag ac tivities for the week.

The subject of the Brazilian pianist required no thought on the part of piano-teacher Earnest. Harrison who responded immedi ately, "She's especially strong in Chopin, Schumann and the mod erns including South American works, of course." Continuing, he exclaimed "She had lots of dash, poetry and fervor!" Mr. Westbrook, who was none the less hesitant than the others, summed up his regard for the pianist by recalling that her re cital here several years ago is among his best remembered mu sical experiences.
