By BEA JOHNSON
A summer job on Cape Cod re-
sulted in winning a spot on the
Arthur Godfrey television talent
show for a five man dixieland
combo.
Bill Andrews, '55, and B o b
Shanahan, '54, members of the
local Ann Arlbor Alleycats, are
members of the "Intercollegiate
Stompers" combo that will be ap-
pearing on the nationwide show
during Christmas vacation.
* * *
CHANCE WAS the prime factor
in the formation of the jazz com-
bo that tooted past the audition
eliminations to gain a spot on
Godfrey's show.
The combo was started by Bill
Andrews and a friend, Sam Ells-
Worth, when the pair heard of
a summer job opening for a jazz
combo at a night club in Sal-
mouth, Mass.
The pair recruited four other
jazz players including Shanahan
to form the six man combo and
obtained the job on the Cape.
* * .
IN THE COMBO Andrews plays
trumpet, Ellsworth is on the bass,
Dick Hulburt plays clarinet and
Hugh Russel is at the piano. All
four are from Massachusetts.
From Charlevoix, Mich.,
Shanahan and his friend, Nick
Hamilton, travelled to the Cape
to join the combo. Shanahan
plays trombone while Hamilton
beats out the drums.
During their engagement in Sal-
mouth, Ellsworth took lady chance
by the horns when he succeeded
in booking five of the group for a
Godfrey talent audition with Ells-
worth acting as talent scout.
* * * *
EARLY ON the morning of Sept.
30 the "Intercollegiate Stompers"
presented "Far Above Cayuga's
Waters" as their bid to a chance
at stardom. The audition only last-
ed a few minutes and the men felt
sure that they hadn't made a hit.
Chance was again on the side
of dixieland jazz, however, for
that evening the combo was face
to face with the producers of the
talent show for the final half
hour audition.
The group proved that jazz has
a popular following as they played
piece after piece for the "big wigs"

and won a spot on the television
broadcast.
* * *
THE USUAL procedure for
would-be stars aspiring a place on
Godfrey's show is a series of three
auditions with the final hearing
presented before the producers.
Godfrey talent scouts are kept
busy interviewing 18 auditioners
an hour, eight hours a day.
The "Intercollegiate Stompers"
jumped from the first hearing to
the final audition skipping the
intermediate steps with their jive
music in the course of one day.
"The only disappointment of
the whole venture," said Andrews
"was the fact that we didn't get
a chance to see Godfrey."
During Christmas vacation has
been the time set by the producers
for the combo to appear on the
show so that none of the group
will have to miss time at school.
"Muskrat Ramble in B Flat" will
be the "Intercollegiate Stomper's"
bid *for first place on the talent
show. If they bat one thousand on
the broadcast they will appear on
Godfrey's daily radio program the
following three days.
