Greek Week
Dorsey Brotht
The Tommy Dorsey orchestra,
featuring Jimmy Dorsey and his
saxophone, will play for a dance
climaxing Greek Week, Feb. 24th.
The dance will be held in the
Township Auditorium from 9-1,
with a concert before the dance.
Also featured with the orchestra
will be Lynn Roberts and Bill
Raymond, vocalists, and Buddy
Rich, drummer.
The first Dorsey Brothers
Orchestra was formed in 1922.
Then, for 10 years, they per
formed as top instrumental
soloists for the leading orchestras
of the period. Early in 19386 the
brothers split up, each with the
idea -of building an orchestra
around his own conception of
music. Tommy's orchestra was
the first large dance band to play
theatres as the featured attrac
tion. Jimmy, on the other hand,
emphasized a sweeter style.
For nearly 17 years, the Dorsey
Brothers carried on a friendly
feud, which ended two years ago
at the Hollywood Palladium,
where both were on the same
program. They drew such a
tremendous hand from the audi
ence that they decided to pool
their resources again. Today they
jointly oWn a New York music
publishing firm and have many
other holdings together.
Lynn Roberts, vocalist for the
orchestra, started singing when
she was two years old. While in
high school, she made quite a few
local TV appearances, and it was
after one of th se that Charlie
Spivak asked her to join his band
when she finished school. After
touring for awhile with Spivak,
she left to join Vincent Lopez's
band. Before too long, Tommy
and Jimmy Dorsey offered Lynn
the female job singing with their
band, and she jumped at it.
Bill Raymond, another vocalist,
has sung with three vocal groups,
has been a soloist and night club
master of ceremonies, and has
been vocalist with five dance
orchestras. Bill feels now that

rTs Orchestra
BUDDY RICH
he has reached the top in dance
band singing as featured male
vocalist with Tommy Dorsey's
orchestra, thus realizing his life
long ambition.
Buddy Rich, billed as "The
World's Greatest Drummer,"
spent six years with Tommy
Dorsey, and after his return from
the service he organized his own
band. Now back with the Dorseys,
he is one of the most prolific of
the top-rung musicians, and one
of the most colorful.
Phi Kaps Entertain
Notre Dante Club

their house at 1602 Pendleton
Street last Wednesday night,

their way to Norfolk, Va.. The

Sullivan Show Easter Day.
Singing by the Notre Dame
