"cepts Ls Dean Professor 27 Years At USC By FEATURE WRITER New Dean of Men and Director of Student Activities George W. Tomlin has been associated with the University for 27 years as a student and professor. A native of Philadelphia, Pa., he attended the public schools of that city, then came to Carolina as a student in 1932 after one year at Susquehanna University. He graduated from the Univer sity in 1935 with a B.S. degree and taught here for two years be fore going to the University of Pennsylvania for post-graduate work and to teach there from 1938 to 1940.

He served in a similar capacity under the Office of Price Stabilization during the Korean conflict, from 1951-1954.

This will be the first public appearance of the band under new Band Director James D. Pritchard. Mr. Pritchard has a Master's degree from the Julliard School of Music, where he did three years graduate work, and has played professionally in New York City under many noted conductors. Early Arrivals Band members have been on the campus since September 9, work ing hard to prepare for their ap pearance at the Duke game and for their first marching exhibition September 26. At press time there were still vacancies for one full-time major ette, several alterate majorettes, and 15 or 20 instrument playing _ band members. Anyone interested in applying for any of these posi tions should contact Mr. Pritchard in the band building. If all these vacancies can be filled the band will reach its - desired strength of 75 instrument playing members, 16 majorettes with one soloist, and a drum major. Judy Penland has been chosen as head majorette and Don Clary as drum major. The band's black uniforms have been rebraided in white and garnet (a shade of red) and will be worn with black shoes and white spats, thus giving the appearance of new uniforms. This, with the return of majorettes to the Caro lina scene after several years ab sence, is the most obvious result of Pritchard's reorganization of the band. The new band director hinted that the band's performance at the Duke game will be an indica tion of things to come in the way of changes and new trends. Music Musical selections will be a mixture of the traditional fine march music with current and popular tunes which will tend to stimulate the enthusiasm of spec tators at the games. Anyone who has band experience with last year's band or in high school is eligible to try out for the band. Applicants for posi tions as alternate majorettes will drill with the present majorettes, replacing any of them who should b)ecome unable to perform when necessary.

By JAY ELGY Special Writer Fifty thousand dollars worth of talent . . . that's Erroll Garner. For the few music haters, E. G. plays a piano. Yet, he does more. than just play, he takes 88 notes and arranges them in a lace-work pattern that sometimes jumps, sometimes floats, but alwvays. thrills. Garner began his rise to fame in the middle 30's and has swept the nation with his happy-go lucky sounds ever since. In the. earlier days of his career, this master of musical feeling worked small group circuit-t rios, duos, but mostly singles. His main pas sion in) life was to play with a big name orchestra. There was, how ever, one large drawback to this: Erroll Garner cannot, and never has been able to, read a single note of music.

G. realized that to )e able to record with the larger Croups, he would have to either learn to read music, or teach his ztyle to them. The former being rather impossible at such a late late, he decided to try the latter. So, when arranger Nat Pierce 'amne along, Garner started to have his ideas put on paper. He couldn't read what Pierce put down, but his feelings for music told him that what. he heard was what he wanted. The two of them got to gether with Mitch Miller to turn out Garner's first album, "4Other \'oices." The widespread success of this work is indicated by the number of D). .J.'s throughout the country who used cuts fro mthis L. P. for theme music. In fact, one such disc spinner used Garner's composition, Msy"so much, that he became known as Mister Misty.
