So It Junks as if Lhe only way to beat james C. is fbr the musician~ tu desert his unionwhich won't happen witbnut better ~t im~tl us than the current situationor for both sides to talk a little turkey which CQnlingency Is equally remote. The only front on which there will be activity for 1\ while is the television tiff, where it appears the enemy may well IJreak through Mr. Big's lines. Write down the date Feb. 8th in your little black date books, and keep the evening and your ears IJI"len for Stan Kenton's concert at the Auditurium,-lt's the Sunday night after we get back from vacation. On the strength of the ban{l Kenton's had for the last couple of years, he walked away with the annual Dl1W1t· beat poll this year, despite the fact lhat he wasn't working from February to September. The band tbat
broke up with Stan's own break-up lust winter was a good outlit, but the !lection work was a little rouf(h, and the " book " showed growing pains. With this new band the book is prelly well ~rown up, the sections play together about as precisely as you could imagine, and the beat Is Incomparable. Through a ll his groping.s of the pa!!l few years, arranger l't~tc Rugolo has found how to makt' screaming brass dissonances a lhing or chilling beauty, and drummer Shelley Manne and bassist Eddie Sa{ransk i know that there are four beau that count the most, besides the tcchnjque that embellishes them. Those three men last mentioned , by the way, won in the Dowrrhcat poll in their respective specialties, as did june Christy in the vocalist depart· ment. That one was really a walk· away, and when you hear Christy do WiUtlW, Weep for Me and Lo11ely Woman, you'll know why. june hasn't any more pitch trouble,-that slightly "off " lone she used to have that detracted from the effect of her well-conceived nuances and slurs. Best numl!er J heard the band and ChriJity dv was a IJrillianl Rugolo manuscript of Over the Rolnbqw, When Uuyd Raeburn did it {with a George Handy score) it was modern and dissonant anti very interestinR, but it. didn't jell.

A new cup will be obtained and presented to the championship team, since Holy <.:rolls retained the old n~ after winning the intercollegiate debates lhree years in succession. Thus Tech ha,o, u pnrtial strangle hold on the new cup with two suc· cwive victori~ toward permanent ownership. Encouraged by these successes, our debating team is planning nn ambi· tious program for the future. Under the guidance o! President Henry Oletz and Manager Bob Lerner, the team is planning on a trip during the mid-year vacation. Negotiations are under way for debates with Fitchburg State Teachers and A.I.C. in Springfield, where plans are being made to participate in a one-half hour radio forum with American International nnd Springfield Col· lege. l>tbatin~ club members are eaf(erly looking rorw;trd to the dehate with the Norfolk Stale Prison Debatinl( Team. Participation in these debates will be restricted to members nf tilt> debatinlo( society who have had lltlle experience in intercollegiate debaLing so as to bol· ster the confidence n! the inexperi· enced members. Although C)Ur debating team has met with considerable success, only a small min<>rily of the students have seen the debating team In action. To alleviate this situation, thr SCA su(U(ested that the team conduct a debate during one or the stu· dent ~biles. As a result, a. debate is being planned for nn asstmbly some tltne in March. 1t Is hoped that another collef(e can be obtained ns oppontnts, if not, then the debal· ing club will ch~ their own ques· tion and a!SSign negative nnd uffmnn· live team.~.
