'Experiment' Performers Claim
Program 'Very Successful'
V By Carol TJdy.
! They say there are two sides to
: every question.
^ Until now you’ve heard about
the “Sound Experiment” from per
sons who were there, but now hear
| "what the participants think of it.
t- The “experiment,” held Sunday,
i .April 24, was a musical program
! of numbers ranging from Bach to
boogie and performed by nine Uni
versity students.
(- “One of the best things that has
hit around here for a long time,”
said James McMullin, vocalist with
the group. “Just the fact that stu
dents, half of them not music ma
- jors, could get together and for the
jure interest of music put on a
performance like the “experiment”
is enough incentive for more such
-programs. If I had the chance to
- participate in something like it
again, I’d jump at the chance.”
Fred Young did the ground work
'and emceed the program, and Gene
Zarones organized the group.
‘ “Marshall Wright, assistant
- graduate in the chemistry depart
jnent, did most of the work on it.
- He organized the music program,
- arranged rehearsals, and played
•the most beautiful tenor sax you've
- ever heard,” said Julie Warner,
-Clarinetist in the ensemble. “It was
tremendous. I d like to have a re
peat every other week.”
“About 150 persons attended,
and I talked to innumerable peo
ple who wanted to go but couldn’t
make it,” Bob Hays commented.
“It was very successful, and we
think two programs a year would
be well attended.”
Other participants were Carl
Gutmann, clarinet; Bill Fletcher,
drums; TIal Harden, bass; and
Arnold Martin, piano.
He was taking the pretty girl
out for a ride in his new car.
“Would you like to see where I
was vaccinated?” she asked.
“Why, yes,” he blurted.
“Well, look to the left—we pass
the hospital any minute now.”

eras on each night for three con

Comedy of years long past and
of modern times is to be found in
the presentation of “The Maid as
Mistress” by Pergolesi, “There and
Back” by Hindemith, and “The
Telephone” by Menotti. Pergolesi
wrote his opera in the early 1700s,
while Menotti’s was composed
about 1942.
“There and Back” is unusual in
that the action and music com
pletely reverses themselves in the
middle of the story and proceed
back to th'e opening scene, all in
about 15 minutes time.
Halene, portrayed by Dorothy
Gangneth, comes to meet her hus
band, Robert, played by Lowell
Chase, at breakfast. The maid,
Jean Young, brings Halene a note
from her lover. Robert becomes

In “The Maid as Mistress,” Pon
