Expert Speaks
To Law Group
Gunther Krause, of the Portland
law firm of Krause and Evans,
spoke at the first general assem
bly of the law school student body
this morning.
Krause, an expert in admiralty
law, presented a discussion on that

magazine in their April issue.
“This is the finest set of sides
ever released by Brubeck at one
time,” according to the review.
"They serve as a rapid glance at
the tastes and skills of the tal
ented pianist and his able asso
ciates,” it continued.
Another group of Brubeck re
cordings, including such jazz clas
sics as “Undecided,” “September
Song,” and "Singin’ in the Rain,"
were named by the Metronome
Yearbook as records of the year
for 1951.
Has Education Experience
A review by Metronome stated
that Brubeck has “just the neces
sary education and experience” to
make him the most successful of
the contemporary jazz artists
working with classical music.
Brubeck’s four-year army ex
perience was spent touring Europe
with the band with which he de
veloped much of his experimental
arranging and composing tech
nique.
After the war, Brubeck dis
carded his former ambitions to be
a veterinarian and did graduate
study in composition at Mills Col
lege. His touring career began
in 1950, when he began making
appearances before western aud
iences.

Powers lived In Madrid and
worked in the national library

pictures which he took, he said,
do not provide a complete picture
of Spain, but they will give those
viewing them a good idea of the
"differences in architecture and
landscape of the country as com
pared to ours.’’
The travelogue begins in the
Pyrenees mountains, going on to
Barcelona, northern Spain and
through Castile and then contin
ues to Madrid, a comparatively
modern city high on a Castilian
plateau, Powers explained. Also
shown will be pictures of Sequoia,
where the newest church is a 16th
century cathedral.
Toledo, known as the imperial
city of Spain, which is also the
adopted home of El Grecco, was
acclaimed by Powers for its mag
nificence. Several of his slides
were made there.
Other scenes which will be
shown by Powers are those taken
at Seville during Holy Week. The
religious processions which go on
day and night are spectacular
sights, commented Powers, as he
spoke particularly of a candle
lighted setting in the cathedral in
Seville—the cathedral which is
second only to St. Peters in Rome, j
