D's Musical Comedy I "One night, down in a Cuban cab- aret . . . Latin beat . . . a new crea- tion now has set the nation swaying" drifted out along a corridor of the League to passers-by Thursday night as Company D rehearsed its musical comedy, "Rumor Has It," which will be produced May 25 and 26 at the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre. Commanday Directs Chorus The chorus of the musical comedy, composed of coeds and Company D members, is directed by Bob Com- manday, who has also made the choral arrangements. The music was written by Ken Pierson, the lyrics by Jim Rhind, and the arrangement' of the music was made by Dick Thomas. "I think some of-the tunes are very catchy and natural," Commanday commented. "Pierson has done a grand job with the music and this was one of his first professional at- tempts." "The songs should go over well with the public . . . We are making an effort to bring them out on radio programs, and I am almost certain that these songs will soon be heard on the radio," he said. Chorus Is Experienced When asked about the background of the chorus members, Commanday remarked that some had had pro- fessional experience while all had sung or acted in dramatic or musical societies, whether high school or col- lege. Three coeds were in the recent production of Tom Sawyer, one was a member of Choral Union, and four are in the University Glee Club. (Pappy) Paul Brazda has done professional radio work on CBS in Cleveland and some solo work sing- ing. James T. Stevenson studied mu- sic in the University of Oklahoma and played in the Oklahoma Sym- phony Orchestra. He also sang in the Choral Union of Oklahoma and has played in the Army Band at the University here. Bob Commanday, director of the chorus, attended the Julliard Insti- tute of Musical Art where he studied with Roy Harris and then studied music at Harvard where he worked with Walter Piston, Archibald Davi- son and Wallace Woodworth. Directed 30-Man Chorus Upon graduating from Harvard he was assistant cbnductor in the Deer- trees Opera Company and at his last Army post in Clemson, S.C., he di- rected a 30-man chorus in Weekly radio broadcasts for eight concerts.
