Show SIGNPOST Page 3 Rushees Receive Bids to Clubs, Pledge Banquets To Be Held Soon Friday, November 10, 1950 "Trying Discs" Back to our 'Mint smooth' record column we come to inspect, first, a shiny new coin from, the music mint. Oscar Peterson was developing his unique pianistic flavor in Montreal, Canada when Coleman Hawkins and the Jazz at the Philhar monic organization came upon him. Since then he has developed technically and imaginatively enough to bring himself into the warm new scope of jazz. For Mercury he has done six sides grouply entitled "Oscar Peterson Piano Solos'. "They Didn't Believe Me", "Where or When", "Oscar's Blues", "Three-o-clock in the Morning", "Lover Come Back to 'Me", and "All the Things You Are" are done breezily breathlessly.You'll find this man is ideaful enough to catch the fancy of any jazz enthusiast, clean and sharp enough to please the more technical group, and excitingly understanding enough for anyone's pleasure. For those who would give him a personal listening, Oscar Peterson will be in Salt Lake City, at the colosium, on November 15. Bill Farrell has recorded a slow and smooth number for M.G.M. Slightly on the commercial side, it is entitled "There You Are" and is backed by "4:20 a.m.". You'll recog nize the latter as an old instrumental."Be My Love" from "The Toast of New Orleans" has been thrilling-ly recorded by Mario Lanza, reputed to be the greatest tenor since Caruso. This is a melody to haunt and taunt one to set your spirits tingling. "Stan Kenton Presents" six vigorous selections presenting some of the choice performers with his band. The fresh, young talents that Kenton has inspired to great achievement are shown to their best advantage in the original selections chosen for them. Art Pepper, who plays alto-sax, gives an eerie, night-marish quality to the music written and arranged for him by Shorty Rogers. Kenton's display of the sound textures created by drums and cymbols is done by Shelly Manne. Maynard Ferguson brings about an undreamedof listening experience with his trumpet. His startling technique chills and thrills in a score by Shorty Rogers. June Christy's pioneering in the field of vocal jazz is brought to a climax in her solo scored by Kenton. It is a selection where tonal quality rather than lyrics is stressed." The kettle drums and bongos provide a spicy-warm background. "House of Strings" brings to attention the emotional versatility of string instruments. Their wide scope of expression is given vent through Bob Graettyiger's arrangement. A fantasy for brass written by Bill Russo and entitled "House of Brass" is warmly toasted by five trumpets, four tenor trombones, one bass trombone, four horns in F, one tuba, and cymbals and tym-pani."Fugue on a Bop Theme", parts one and two, by Dave Brubeck is worth a very sharp listening. Much thanks to Jerry Laine for endless amounts of assistance! "Many a man who worked his way through college is now working his son's way through." Writer Dan Bennett. t .,,. !

Their pledge banquet Will be held on Sunday, Nov. 12. . Armistice Day Has More Than One Meaning At 5 a.m. November 11, 1918, a treaty was signed by leading men of Germany and the allied countries.Millions of people the world over celebrated the following day as the end of years of costly war. They called it Armstice Day. Although an armistice merely means a truce, to the war-weary world of 1918 it was certain peace. For some time it was peace but as the years went by the term "armistice" became a reality. Hitler took the Kaiser's place and resumed the war against the same allies. Twenty years had passed and Germany had bigger armies, more equipment, and better trained men. The armistice of 1918 had just given Germany time to prepare for more aggression instead of stopping it. After another six years of war the world was again settled in "peace". This time the aggressor nations were disarmed and occupation armies policed them. Peace tasted good, but was it final? The aggressor nations were finished but what about the "allies". Still there are two powers that can't get along. Is this peace, or just another armistice while Russia prepares for World War III? Events in Korea would make the treaties in 1945, just an armistice. What next?
