.udience Shows Wild Enthusiasm
For Duke Ellington's Concert
Rt Art Enfitlrn
For the fine reception that
Puke Ellington ana nis Dana re
ceived last night from the stu
dents of the University and the
people of Lincoln, the entire crew
wants you to know that they
"Love You Madly." To say the
least, the wild enthusiasm that
the crowd had for the pieces that
the royalty of ultra-modern mu
sic, Duke Ellington, played was
net a show of courtesy, but rather
a personal response to truly won
derful music.
"The Moochie," first offered of
a medley of three songs, is a
medley that has been in and out
of the Ellington library since its
first recording in 1928. Quentin
Jackson trombone, Nelson Wil-
liams trumpet, and Russell Pro
cope alto sax, were feature solo
ists for the first number. Second
in the trio was Jaun Tizol play
in u o vnlvA trnmbc-ie solo on
"Caravan," a song tnat he and
the Duke wrote. Final on the
group of three was "Ring Dem
Bells" that Ellington wrote m
1930.
Featured Solo
Harry Carney played the fea
cnln nn the "bari-sax" on !
ong that really fitted the title
of "Frustration." After the tre
mendous sax solo, the mystery of
the phrase of "love you maaiy
was lifted when the girl vocalist
Barbara Windfield sang the song
of the same name. As far as pop
tunes go, "Madly" should be one
of Duke's topsellers. The song
should be out very shortly. Fol
lowing the single number that
Barbara sang trumpet man "Cat"
Anderson took off on "Colora
tura." This piece showed that the
"Cat" can really reach that high
register for which he is so fa
mous. Paul Gonsalves played the
kind of sax that has the audience
jumping in their seats. Paul gave
his version of the Ellington theme
song, "Take the 'A' Train."
The last score before intermis
sion was the piece that made the
show sound like a great concert.
The tuneN "Harlem," was to re
mind one of the five senses. From
the first two notes that Ray Nance
used tt introduce the number to
the final beat the audience was
under the spell of the music.
When the final note did sound,
everyone in the audience was
limp and exhausted, but in a
frame of mind that left them
completely satisfied of what they
had just heard. The applause for
that number was enough to shake
the foundation, it was that well
accepted.
Before Its Time
After the intermission the first
score that was played was "Con
troversial." This song was the
fight of the music to come as to
what it was in the past. The first
part of the two piece score was
entitled "Later." This music is
beyond a doubt ten years before
its time. The second part, "Be
fore My Time" went back to be
fore Dixie. Feature on the second
portion -was a combo of Russell
Procope, Harold Baker and
Quentin Jackson.
"Monolog - Duet - Threesome,"

Hand Corsage
Money to AUF
Save money?
The boys in 1948 thought they
would when corsap! for the junior-senior
prom vre banned.
They soon discovered, however,
that they would be a ked to do
nate this money to A.U.F.
A.U.F. collections were taken
at the door the night of the prom
by members of the Innocents So
ciety, sponsors of the prom.
Also prom goers this year will
have a dime more when they
leave than those who went in
1948. The tickets this year are
$1.90. They were $2.00 in 1948.
During the war, proms were
discontinued because of the short
age of man-power. In 1941, how
ever, Count Basie played and
for the first time, boys without
tuxedoes were allowed to wear
business suits.
Another practice which changed
with the prom in 1941 was that
of any girl entering her name
for prom queen. Last year, Corn
usker beauty queens were an
tounced at the prom instead cf
i prom queen. This year the
queen will be chosen from the
candidates submitted from each
, organized women's house.

THE DUKE AND A FAN Duke Ellington, right, whose well
known band presented a program of ultra-modern music Wednes
day night at the Coliseum, is shown "talking shop" with one of
his fans, University sophomore and footballer, Tom Carodine,
following the concert. Carodine was one of the many students
who received Ellington's musical versions with enthusiastic
approval.
featured three of the top Elling
ton artists. In "Duet," Wendell
Marshall, bass, and Jimmy Ham
ilton, clarinet, played terrific
harmony together. The "Three
some" was a show stopper. Lewie
Bellson on the drums proved to
the people that in a year he will
be the best drummer in the busi
ness. He had the audience ap
plause all through his perform
ance.
Other- highlights of the pro
gram was Al Hibbler, who did
three encores; Duke at the piano
playing some of his old favorites
and Ray Nance clowning at the
mike as only he can do.

Louie Bellson is one terrific
drummer. And any of those peo
ple who happened to hear his
drum solo at the Duke Ellington
concert will be quick to agree.
Such talent just doesn't come
over night, though. Louie started
playing drums at the age of five
in the back room of his father's
music store in Moline, 111. Before
joining The Duke he was with
Har,ry James and Tommy Dor
sey. Louie, when away from his
drums, is a quiet, almost shy per
son who takes an active interest
in his surroundings. While taking
a quick tour of the campus he had
a 'crib' (ice cream is his most
potent stimulant) and appeared
on Art Epstein's program ever
KNU.
Although he liked the campus,
he just couldn't get over the
weather. "Is it really snow?" he
asked when the white stuff first
started coming down.
Right now Louie is on a "health
kick" to regain weight lost from
lack of sleep. He doesn't drink or
smoke and eats three big meals a
day. Besides that there are nu
merous lunches of ice cream and
milk before and after every prac
tice session.
His newest recording is a drum
solo on the T. Dorsey record, "Do
I Love You" on Columbia records.
