piano, Pete Eckstrom beating the
drums and Hugh Gucker on the
vibraphone make up his group.
Brodie, a saxopnone player, of-
ten plays along with the others.
Vocalist Delores Evans will also
be featured with the musicians.
"We try to entertain as, well as
play," Brodib said recently, "by
singing and, kibitzing. Audiences
seem to like it better than just
playing," he explained.

come traditional to the many
couples frequenting the spot, the
North Lounge will again take on
the appearance of a night club.
Small tables with red and white
checked table cloths at which
couples can take a breather Will
surround the dance floor. Candle
light will be employed, as usual,
to add to the atmosphere.
Soft drinks and potato chips
will be available to those who de-
sire light refreshment during the
evening.

enjoy them just as much next se-
mester," he said.
