ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 1928 EIGHT PAGES WHITEMAN ORCHESTRA WILL PLAY TONIGHT, TO PLAY GEORGE GERSHWIN'S NEW F CONCERTO AMONG PROGRAM NUMBERS REENTERS CONCERT FIELD "Melancholy Baby," "Tiger Rag" And Popular Airs Add Luster To Impressive Array Paul Whiteman, famed "king of jazz," and his well known orchestra will give a concert tonight at 8:15 o'clock in Hill auditorium. White- man was last heard here three years ago, and has just returned to the concert stage after a prolonged absence during which time his or- chestra attained even greater heights than ever before through' a constantly increasing popularity as phonograph recorders. The program which Whiteman! has arranged for his Ann Arbor I performance is as follows: I Introduction: "Yes, Jazz is Savage" I. (a) Sugar ' (b) Gypsy (c) Tiger Rag III. Concerto in F , George Gershwin Allegro Andante con motoI Allegro con briof Roy Bargy, soloist IV. (a) Just Like a Melody Out of the sky (b) Valse Inspiration (c) Melancholy Baby INTERMISSION V.

Expecting a last minute rush for the remaining seats tonight, two box offices will be maintained. Seats at all prices are still left, it has been announced. Has Given 600 Concerts Whiteman's memorable debut took place on February 12, 1924 when he appeared in a concert hall in New York with what had been hitherto un-recognized, "a jazz orchestra." Since his immedi- ate popularity there, he has given more than 600 concerts in the United States, Canada, and Europe, and has received recognition from all corners of the world. The popular artist has made two transcontinental tours. At the present time he is on his way for another long American tour which started at Carnegie hall, New York Mast month. Paul Whiteman has often stated his belief that the college musician is an important factor in the de- velopment of jazz music. He has further intimated that he is par- ticularly interested in college men for positions in his orchestra, not only because they play well, but be- causehebelieves further that their altogether proper attire is an addi- tional asset to the quality of the orchestra. Services In Hleavy Demand Many popular composers have made special efforts to provide Whiteman and his orchestra with selections for presentation by his orchestra. For example, Gersh- win's "Rhapsody in Blue" was originally introduced by Whiteman in 1924. Recently Roger Wolfe Kahn, son of the prominent banker -and backerĀ° of the Metropolitan opera house in New York, has for- saken his orchestra to compose mitsic for the Whiteman organiza- tion.

Coming on the heels of the de- strud-tion, however, were floods which developed in several parts of France threatening to bring to a hectic close one of the most tur- belent weeks of stormy weather in many years. The heaviest lost was in the foundering of the French freighter Cesaree off Algiers, 15 sailors being drowned of the crew of 19.

Of Playwriting At Rhetoric Seminar IS WRITER AND PRODUCER Tomorrow's presentation of Lenox Robinson, renowned Irish dramatist, novelist, and producer, by the rhetoric department will come as a surprise, for it was only at a late hour yesterday that final and definite arrangements could be made to insure the presence of Mr.; Robinson in Ann Arbor. He will make two addresses to- morrow. The first will be an in- formal affair, given at 2:00 o'clock in the rhetoric seminar to the stu- dents of the play writing class of the rhetoric department. Mr. Rob- inson has requested that only a small group' attend this discussion, which will be based on the sub- ject "Play Writing." Any students interested in the subject, aside from those enrolled in the class, are cordially invited to listen to the visitor. The' second lecture of the afternoon will be public and delivered at 4:15 o'clock in Univer- sity hall auditorium, His subject for the later lecture will be "The Abbey Theater," of which he is at present manager. The subject of the second talk is that famous old theater in Dub- lin so figurative in the progress of the Irish dramatic renaissance. It was the stage of this theater which' produced the offerings of Synge, Yeats, Lady Gregory, St. John[ Irvin, and Sean O'Casey. The reason enabling the appear- ance of Robinson in Ann Arbor is due to the necessity of his pres- ence in Detroit this season to superintend the production of his play "The Whiteheaded Boy," at the Civic Theater under the direc- tion of the Bonstelles. The lecturer is considered to be one of the most influential leaders of the dramatic movement in Ire- land, where, he was for a time a critic for the dramatic columns of the London Spectator. Flanagan To Speak On Russian Theater Prof. Hallie Flanagan of Vassar college, director of the experiment- al theater there, ,will speak 'here at 4:15 o'clock Friday afternoon, Nov. 30, in Natural Science auditorium on the subject of "Russia's theater of the Revolution." She will speak here at the request of Prof. O. J. s Campbell of the English depart- ment. Professor Flanagan spent the school year of 1926-27 as a Fellow of the Guggenheim foundation, 1 studying comparativemethods of -modern theatrical production. In e the course of her study she traveled _in England, Ireland, Sweden, Den- mark, Latvia, Russia, Czechoslov- akia, Austria, Germany, Italy and [France. Many unusual discoveries were made by Professor Flanagan in her ,studies abroad according to ad- vance reports. She teaches a play 1 production class as part of her ac- tivities at Vassar. One of the out- - standing achievements there re- d cently was the production by that d class of Chekov's "Marriage Pro- - posal," done in three different d styles, impressionistically, realistic- d.1I .. rni,+fAvna'1'y Thn season, McCoy said, and act only as II.

The. banquet which is given in honor of the football squad and at which the entire squad are to be guests of the Union, will be ad- dressed by Joe Magidsohn, '11E, all- Western halfback in 1909 and 1910; as the outside speaker, by Coach Elton E. (Tad) Wieman, by Captain George Rich, '29L, as well as by the -captain-elect. Carl Brandt of the speech department, it is an- nounced, will act as toastmaster. It is the wish of Union officials sponsoring the banquet that the attention of students attending be called to the time when the ban- quet is due to start which is 6 o'clock and not 6:15 o'clock as printed on the tickets. This change is being made so that the banquet will be over in time for any who care to do so to attend the White- man concert beginning at 8:15 o'clock in Hill auditorium. An Outstanding Official Magidsohn, it is expected, will prove of special interest as in addi- tion to being prominent in Univer- sity alumni circles, he is one of the most outstanding of Big Ten foot- ball officials. He did not see a single Michigan game: this year, although his home is in Detroit, owing to the fact that he has been engaged each week of the fall officiating for vari- ous conference teams. A member 'of the board of gov- ernors of the Detroit University of Michigan club, Magidsohn held a similar position in Chicago before locating in Detroit. It is expected that he will devote the major por- tion of his remarks to comments concerning other Big Ten teams and their games this year, throw- ing interesting sidelights upon number of the contests.
