Fantasy To Highlight First Symphony Concert
“Gulliver,” the humorous fantasy by Edgar Stillman Kelley, will be the highlight of the all-American program to be presented at the University Symphony orchestra’s opening performance Sunday. Guest artist will be Jesus Maria San Roma, Puerto Rican-American pianist.
Under the direction of Conductor Modeste Alloo, the concert
will begin at 4:30 p.m., in the ----------------
Miami Senior high school auditor-
ium.
The program will include Henry Hadley’s overture from “In Bohemia”; MacDowell’s Concerto 2 in D Minor, and George Gershwin’s “Rhapsody in Blue.”
“Gulliver” had its debut with the Cincinnati Symphony orchestra in 1936 and was conducted later in Newark, New Jersey by Dr. Alloo. This will be the first performance of “Gulliver” in Miami.
The prelude of “Gulliver” concerns the “paleontoscope,” the wonder instrument which reveals visions of past events. The first movement finds Gulliver on the sea in the storm which overpowers his ship, “Antelope.” Depicting Gulliver’s sleep, the second movement tells of the strange island. The third movement suggests the coming of the Lilliputians and of Gulliver’s capture. The finale sees Gulliver aboard the merchant ship which will return him to his native land.
Included in the -third movement
is “Giibdrib,” the Lilliputian national anthem, which was written by Hans von Brechnowski.
Students will be admitted ■pon presentation of their registration cards.

Dean McCracken Requests Seniors To Check Credits
All seniors in the schools of liberal arts and business administration are requested to see Dean Ernest McCracken in the Administration building at once to check graduation requirements.
table directly to lack of field generalship, Coach Eddie Dunn has put in a lot of time on Bob Harrell, V-12 172-pounder. Harrell is a better-than-fair punter and blocker, and although Bob Wylie will open at quarterback, the Navy boy is likely to get his chance tonight.
D. L. Claborn, 185-pound end, will relieve the ailing flankmen, Paul Hildreth and John Mell. Both played almost 60-minute ball last week and get batted around some. Center Dick Trathen, who. split his tongue in practice Tuesday, did not get into uniform the latter part of the week and probably will not play. A1 Smith, who is a better defensive pivot man, will fill in.
North Carolina State is a light team, averaging 165 pounds in the backfield and 187 on the line. Despite this handicap, however, the Pack has scored 115 points to 56 for its opponents.
Coached by Beattie Feathers, all-American back at Tennessee and professional star, the Raleigh team has knocked over Milligan, the University of Virginia, Catawba, William and Mary and Virginia Military Institute. Only Wake Forest, a team that ran all over Miami to win, 27-0, and powerful Clemson, were able to best the Wolfpack.
Feathers, now in his first year with State, has installed the T formation and the Tennessee system.
Aggressive and well-coached, the Pack is an all-civilian team composed of 24 freshmen and five sophomores, all of whom are quick to take advantage of lapses on the part of their opponents.
Against Virginia, the only scores that were made came as a result of recovering fumbles in the end zone for touchdowns. A blocked punt led to a score over VMI.
Howard Turner is touted as the best thing in the Wolfpack secondary. The 158-pound flash does (Continued on page 5)
