Stan Kenton and his orchestra
will present a "Festival of Modern
American Jazz," including acts by
five other top entertairers, at 7:15
p.m. and 9:30 p.m. Friday at Hill
Auditorium.
Tickets for the festival are
priced at $2, $1.50, and $1. They
may be purchased from 10 a.m. to
5 p.m. today through Friday at
the Hill Auditorium box office. All
seats are reserved.
STAN KENTON'S o r c h e s t r a,
which will be the main feature of
the festival, will act as host for
the other performers.
The Erroll Garner trio, "Diz-
zy" Gillespie, Charlie Parker,
and Candido will be featured
along with vocalist June Christy
and the 20-piece Kenton orches-
tra.
Erroll Garner, who hails from
Pittsburgh, has done numerous re-
cordings in recent years. He comes
from a musical family, since his
father played piano and saxa-
phone, and six out of seven of his
brothers and sisters also had key-
board talent.
* * *
GARNER started playing when
he was about three, and since he
has a good ear, never has learned
to read music. "I tried and I
couldn't make it, so I just didn't
ever learn," he said.
He played with a group called
"The Candy Kids," aid when he
was 14 or 15 he began to play
professionally around I o c a 1
I clubs.
Garner is strictly a melody man.
Though he plays a lot of chords,
they're still the chords of the tune,
and the melody can be found
somewhere among them.
* * *
HE HAS NO eyes for enlarging

ambition is to play in concerts. In
keeping with his impressionist
ballad style, two of Garner's re-
cent record releases have been Ra-
vel'9 "Pavanne pour une Infante
defunte," and Debussy's "Reverie."
As with all leaders who estab-
lish a new style, "Dizzy" Gilles-
pie has gone through .a tremen-
dous transitional period. "Dizzy"
is the first to admit that when
his band was young, he played a
style of music called "bop," that
was somewhat hard to dance to,
according to his followers.
Today, the new "Dizzy" Gilles-
pie has a sextette that retains the
excitement of the music but has
added the necessary dance beat.
* * *
"DIZZY" started playing with
a 10-piece band of youngsters.
Through broadcasts, Roy Eldridge
became his first idol. Like so many
other musicians, he came out with
a style completely differant and
"all his own."
He made his first records in
March, 1927 with Teddy Hill. A
little clique of musicians then
started the "Dizzy cult." He
played at the World's Fair and
then spent four months with
Edgar Hayes, followed by an-
other stint with Hill and Cab
Calloway at the Cotton Club in
1939.
From 1941 to 1943 "Dizzy" had
a variety of jobs - with Calvin
Jackson, with his own band in
Philadelphia, with Earl Hines for
10 months, for Coloman Hawk-
ins, with Duke Ellington subbing
for a few weeks at the Capitol
Theatre on Broadway.
From there "Dizzy" graduated
into leading his band.

To Couzens Hall
Presidents of the women's dor-
mitories on campus recently met
with Dean Elsie Fuller to discuss
arrangements for the new addi-
tion to Couzens Hall which will be
built in a year or two.
This addition will do a great]
deal to alleviate the housing prob-
lem and will house students from
various schools.
Since the women consulted live
in dormitories, it was felt that
they would have many suggestions
for the planning of the new build-
ing.
In future meetings the group
will be asked for suggestions
about the size, arrangement and
placement of rooms. They will also
start planning the government and
constitution of the addition.
Central committee members who
will work with Dean Fuller on this
project are Marilyn Gordon, Mu-
riel Claflin, Vonda Genda, Carol
Alford, Donna Westerlund and
Terry Burke.

Increasingly familialfto the pa-
tiepts in University Hospital are
the bright red smocks of the vol-
unteer workers.
These volunteers are townspeo-
ple and students, both men and
women, who have offered their as-
sistance in performing all sorts of
jobs in the hospital. These are non-
professional duties which save the
time of the professional staff for
actual nursing care.
IN THEIR Hospital Volunteer
Services Program the Community
Service Committee of the League
offers women students an oppor-
tunity to assist in this worthwhile
service,
There are opportunities for
volunteer workers in most of the
departments of the hospital and
the Out-patient Clinic. These
positions require no previous ex-
perience.
Jobs are available writing let-
ters, shopping, reading to patients,
advising patients of religious serv-
ices, helping the chaplains, assist-
ing with the Sunday chapel serv-
ices, wheeling children to and from
school, assisting teachers, taking
the library cart to patients' bed-
sides, and helping them select
books and reading material.
THOSE STUDENTS who are in-
terested in entertainment will
have an opportunity to display
their talents by planning and put-
ting on programs for the wards.
Hostesses are needed to greet
and help patients and visitors
at the door, guide ihem through
the hospital, and entertain chil-
dren in the waiting room.
The' advantages of this type of
volunteer service are many and
varied. These include practical ex-
perience in. various fields, the op-
portunity to meet people, and the
chance to render service to the
hospital staff and benefits to the
patients. It also affords fun and
personal enjoyment to those who
offer their services.
THE VOLUNTEER service at
the hospital is under the direction
of Mrs. Andrea W. Keyes.
Any student who is interested in
volunteering may seehMrs. Keyes
