RECORD REVIEW
New Soui
On Jazz|
By Dave Bledoe
Music Analyst
One of the finest Jazz records
I've heard In a long time came
out recently on an Argo label.
It's e,alled "2:88 a.m.," and it's by
the Ralph Sharon quartet and
friend. As the friend just hap
pens to be Candido, It's not too
hard to guess that the sounds
coming up will have top-flight
rhythm--which they do.
Brubeck Competition
As far as quartets of this type
go, I would have said that Bru
beck was tops, but this album
seriously threatens Dave's top
position. One of the big faults
of Brubeck Is that his jazz is a
little too commercial.
By commercial, I mean that the
indefinable touch of superb im
provisation is sometimes lacking.
. . . .......
Ralph Sharon
Sharon-whom I had never heard
before to any great extent
manages to keep the feeling of
intimacy while recording at a
studio. The numbers have a drive,
but they are never over w'rked.
Contents
Besides Sharon, there was Billy
Exner on drums, an English Bass
player named Allan Mack, plus
the great Candido. The album
starts with "Blues," composed by
Sharon, then moves into "Old
Man River." "Garden in the Rain"

After hearing "I'll never be the

you'll never be the same. It'a
impossible to be indifferent to
this album, no matter what your

Argo company, and I listened to
some more albums . . .AmaJ
Amahl has a new one, and there
is one by the Melavano orchestra
that I can't figure out.
If you ask me, the name sounds
like a cross between Mantovani
and Melachrino, and so help me
that's exactly how it sounds
Great music for that "in betweer
Mantovani and Melachrino" mood
but not much good for anything
else.

Guess Who:
Men 's Fash
By George Leventis
Special Writer
The stripe in combination with
the ivy league has really taken
over in college fashions. It has
become the mark of the college
set, and rightly so, because it
uses blends of colors with prompt
noticibility.
Of course you have the glen
plaids, tweeds and checks, but
nothing pronounces color more
than the traditional stripe. Other
weaves have color, but they are
more blended and quiet. The
stripe brings each color into its
own and to the front.
Variety of Stripes
This fall you are seeing the
stripe not only in jackets and .
ties, but also in sweaters, shirts,
wind-breakers and t r o u s e r s.
Stripes are nice and should be
worn, but there is a way-a cer
tain way-to wear them which is
often neglected.
Some outfits, combine so many
stripes that they give candy
stick-effect. I have seen boys
wear a striped coat with a
striped shirt, striped tie and
trousers. We all make the same
mistake when we are in a hurry
and don't take time to match
colors or weaves.
Rules For Wearing
You notice stripes everywhere
in a variety of colors. The trouble
is no one really tells us how we
are suppose to wear them. I went
digging around for information
and came up with a few ideas that
might be helpful.
There are a million ways you
can wear stripes, and just as
many wvays not to wear them.
Only one striped item should be
wvorn in an outfit. For example
when you are wearing a striped
jacket you do not wear a striped
shirt, a striped tie or even striped
trousers.
A striped jacket calls for a
solid shirt and a print tie-a
foulard or ancient Madda, and
after Camels than
:te today. And no
avor and easygoing
blend of costly to
ieen equalled. More

Prints Popular
Speaking of ties, the prints are
very nice because they can be
worn anywhere anytime. In buy
ing ties you should think of this
and try to make the most of your
purchases in the prints.
Solid Matches
Casual wear--sports shirt and
trousers--presents the least prob
lem especially if the trousers are
in solid color. Any type sports
shirt may be worn with solids.
When you wear striped trousers
try to complinent them by using
a solid shirt or a light check. The
three boys in the picture have
the right idea on what to wear
with what. The outfits shown
have the proper amount of stripes
to go well with the solids. (Photo courtesy of Lourle's)
