mal portrait of Fanny King soph-

drawn from the music depart-
ment with the band forming the
nucleus for the show" stated Di-
rector Estes.

net artists Carvel Mills and
James Mallow with two Benny
Goodman arrangements for clari-
net duets. Joe Trawick will con-
duct his arrangement of "Concer-
to for the Band" assisted by the

lize and other soloists will be pre-
sented on the program. The show

strumental talent of the popular
record shows.
Mr. Estes announced that ad-
mission for the variety show

"Blossomtime" and "The Late
Christopher Bean" have been
scheduled a week later than or-
iginally planned Dr. Clyde Gar-
rett Dean of Music announced.
"The Late Christopher Bean"

duction is a Sidney Howard play
in three acts sponsored and pre-
sented by members of the Curtain
Club. The cast has been selected
and rehearsals are under way.

"Blossomtime" portrays the
life of Franz Schubert pianist and
composer. For the production
Schubert's music is arranged for
opera by Sigmund Romberg. The
opera although a long-run pro-
duction in music circles has not
lost its first popularity and reap
pears from season to season as a
light opera performance.
Dr. Garrett will direct the com-
plete operetta including speaking
and singing parts. His direction
will affect a professional touch
in the opera since he has played
the part of Papa Kranz for years.
