PAGE TOUrn THE MICHIGAN DAILY TUESDAY, AUGUST 11~ 1945 PREMIERE PERFORMANCE: Student Carilloneurs To Play Today _______________________________________ I By DONALD HARRIS On the top floor of Burton Memorial Tower, there is little re- semblance to the plain floors and ceilings and hard wood chairs usually found in University classrooms.f Here in the working quarters of Prof. Percival Price, University Carillonneur, are three homelike, comfortable rooms. A soft green carpet is on the floor. There are armchairs and a sofa. IN DIRECT ANTITHESIS to these domestic surroundings is the cloistered room directly above which houses the University's famed Baird Carillon. In a world by itself stands the instrument whose keyboard, approximately four feet in length, is dwarfed by the immense size of the larger bells. The bells are arranged in an arch at whose base directly centered is the actual carillon. Beginning with the large bells, completely sur- rounding the small room housing the instrument, they diminish in size to the smallest ones at the top. INTO THIS ENVIRONMENT this summer have stepped four graduate students in the School of Music to learn the techniques of carillon under the tutelage of Prof. Price. At noon today Lois Batchelor, Betsy Gidley, Richard Harper and Fred Fahrner, will present their first recital on the instru- ment. Works of Bach, Mozart, Couperin, Willem de Fesch and Gow will be played. The world's premiere of Prof. Price's Rhap- sody for Two Carillonneurs No. 4, will also be performed by Miss Batchelor and Miss Gidley. All four students are primarily organists, but are studying the carillon because as Miss Gidley pointed out "there has been a revival of carillon in this country. In some places organists are being asked to double on the instrument." * * * ~ ENTHUSIASTIC IN expressing their delight over the carillon, "its an awful lot of fun to play," the four jokingly referred to themselves as the "first carillon quartet." M But when it comes to the business at hand, the carillon pre- sents many problems. Miss Batchelor explained that "no two caril- Ions are alike. Each piece has to be arranged for the instrument on which it is to be played." More important to the beginning student however is the great amount of physical exertion needed to play the carillon. It takes a good hard blow with the fist, to put into operation the heavier bells. Consequently an hour is 'all the beginner can practice without causing injury to the hands. * * * * PLAYERS WEAR "stalls," which are little felt rings with ad- hesive tape around the middle. When placed on the little finger, which is the first part of the.fist to reach the levers operating the bells, they soften the blow for the hand. Another problem particular to the carillon is the fact that it operates on a delayed action principle. On the piano as soon as a note is struck it sounds. On the carillon however, the increased mech- anism causes a short moment's hesitation between the actual strik- ing of the note and the sounding. The players have to take account of this and strike the note a little before it is to sound. Campaigning INDEPENDENCE, Mo. -- /P) -- Margaret Truman said yes- terday she hopes she can take part in the next Missouri con- gressional campaign-"but not as a candidate."T Asked about recurrent reports that she intends to run for Congress, the daughter of for-1 mer President Harry Truman laughed and said:2 "I'm not going to as far as I know. I do hope I can take part in the campaign, but not as a candidate.- StateViw Phone ikef LANSING - P) - The attorney general's office yesterday was con- sidering a Supreme Court appeal of an Ingham County Circuit Court ruling permitting the Gen- eral Telephone Co. to collect the $1,100,000 rate increase. Pappy' Noel Back Home TOKYO-t/P)--Frank "Pappy" Noel, Associated Press photograph- er, yesterday was awaiting an Ar- my physical checkup which he ex- pected would put him back in cir- culation after 32 months in Com- munist prisoner of war camps. Noel, 54 years old, arrived Sun- day to be greeted by his wife, SEvelyn, a day after the Reds re- turned him in the prisoner ex- change at Panmunjom, Korea. i* THE PULITZER Prize winning cameraman said "I'm feeling good. I don't know why they want me in a hospital." Although Noel was a civilian prisoner of war, military regula- tions required that he have the physical checkup. When Noel stepped from the plane he rushed into the embrace of his tearfully happy wife.

Pointing out that the primary aim of the 83rd Congress was to "put the brakes on New Deal leg- islation," Meader said he was sat- isfied with the record because Con- gress had not passed any Bra'n- nan plans or other "socialistic leg- islation." REP. MEADER said Congress was following a "definite pattern" toward restoring free enterprise. II IL CLOTHES City Lights CHICAGO-(P)-The Ameri- can Public Works Association said yesterday that a spot sur- vey of 276 cities shows that mercury vapor street lighting systems decrease traffic acci- dents. The APWA compared acci- dent figures in the various cities before and after mercury vapor lighting systems were installed. Opinion was divided in the cities whether operation costs were lower with the mercury vapor systems. Public Building Reaches Peak Ann Arbor public improvement construction programs totaling $1,296,834 are now underway, City Engineer George H. Sandenburgh said yesterday. The largest building season since the 1936-37 sewage disposal pro- ject, this summer's projects in- clude construction of a $426,000 carport on Maynard Street, direct- ly across from the School of Music. CURB, GUTTER and paving im- provements are included in the program, totaling $287,000. Part of the cost will be assumed by the State Highway Department. Most noticeable of the city im- provement projects is the widening of South University street from Washtenaw to East University where workmen have been busy with caterpillars, air hammers and concrete-laying equipment for the past few weeks. Completion of this project is due about October 1. Civil Engineering Talk To Be Given Under the auspices of the De- partment of Civil Engineering, Prof. Leo M. Legatski of the engi- neering college will speak on "The Analog Computer in Structural Analysis" at 4 p.m. today in Rm. 311 West Engineering Bldg.

It had granted the company a $660,000 rate increase, but on July 31 Judge Coash ordered the cofmmission not to interfere with the collection of the full amount the company asked for. The com- pany was required to post a $500,000 bond to guarantee re- funds to its customers if after a rehearing the full rate is not fully allowed. The commission said that JudgeI Coash's opinion had "no precedent in the history of rate collections." It added that the opinion amounted to giving utilities the "right to collect whatever the traf- fic will bear for its services." BEFORE JUDGE Coash, the company argued that the amount permitted by the commission was not enough to continue operations and tQ installimprovements of ser- vice. Judge Coash had also dismissed a companion suit by the city of Ludington asking that no rate in- crease be allowed because of poor service. Rickenbacker Quits Airline Chief Position NEW YORK-(/)-Capt. Eddie Rickenbacker, legendary figure in American Aviation, yesterday step- ped out of the presidency of East- ern Air Lines, Inc., to become board chairman.
