The supporting cast includes such stars as Thomas Mitchell,iEdgar Buchanan and An- thony Quinn. "I picked out a tune on the piano, and Jim wrote the lyrics for it," and as simply as that Ken Pierson ex- plained how, he and Jim Rhind formed the song writing team that has provided Co. D's "Rumor Has It" with its ten original musical numbers. The score for the show illustrates the versatility of the composers, for the tunes range from the romantic f CAMOUFLAGED BRUNCH-COATS in Clever Cottons Smart Seersuckers Low Necklines Pinafore Styles $395 ~$5"'O0 Sizes 12-20 8 Nickels Arcade -tAkl- waltz "So Much in Love" to the be- guine, "The Jacqueline," and includes several novelty numbers. For the most part, the music was written first and then the lyrics were fitted to the melody. The music for "Rumor Has It" is not the first work that Pfc. Ken Pierson and Pfc. Jim Rhind have done together. They already have to their credit "The Pranks Are Coming," "Manila Bay," and several other songs, and copyright is pending for the music from the show. Pierson was a student at the Uni- versity of Newark where he was pres- ident of the college dramatic society, The Mummers. He is a jazz author- ity, and plays the trumpet. He claims that his tunes occur to him "any- where at all, perhaps in the shower or while I'm walking down the street." Rhind attended Hamilton College and Ohio State University before entering the Army. "After I hear one of Ken's tunes, the first thing I have to do is figure out the mood. Some songs just sound as though they should have 'glad we're together again' lyrics. Others are definitely I miss you since you've gone away' songs. Once that's decided, the hard- est work is over." He claims that the only "textbook" he uses is a pocket yhyming dictionary. When the songs are in final form, they are turned over to Pfc. Bob Commanday and Pfc. Dick Thomas, who a're arranging them for the singing chorus and for the 12 piece band that will perform them in the show. Judging from the response of the singers and musicians who are re- hearsing the music now, the score for "Rumor Has It" will be one of the show's leading features. 100(, VIRGIN WOOL BLANKETS Springfield blankets by Wainsutta come in blue, rose, peach, green.
