MIAMITIMES. MIAMI, FLORIDASATURDAY, MAY 10, 1952

LOW RANK VETSCAN NOW ENLIST

“Recent changes have easedthe restriction on the enlistmentof veterans who for various rea-sons, were not promoted duringtheir prior service,” Cpl. “Dub”Thornton Jr., recruiter for thisarea, announced here this week.

“Heretofore, a man could notre-enlist unless he had achievedcertain rank while in service.There have also been many vet-erans who tried to re-enlist, butcould not make a sufficient scoreon the classification test. Require-ments on that test are now so lowthat almost any possessor of anhonorable discharge can pass.

“I’ve had dozens of ex-service-men approach me during pastmonths concerning re-enlistment,”Cpl. Thornton explained, “butregulations in effect at that timewouldn’t permit their acceptance.Now they are eligible, and I wantthose men to know that they canget into the army or the AirForce.

“Unless a married man canqualify for return as a Sergeant,or similar rank in the Air Forcehe cannot be enlisted, but singleveterans can have their choice ofservice, and in many cases, theirchoice of assignment,” Thorntonstated.

Cpl. Thornton is available at allhours, and on weekends to answerquestions of those interested inthe service. Appointments can bemade with hipi by calling 82-1505. |

PANIC MUSIC FEBTIVALYour columnist has just re-

turned from FAMC’s Departmentof Music’s third annual MusicFestival which was held in Tal-lahassee on the state college cam-PUS. Various high school choirsthroughout the state attended.

On Friday, May 2, the collegesymphonic band was in concert•t Lee auditorium with WilliamP. Foster, conducting and Dr. Er-nest Harris, guest conductor. Theprogram was as follows:

Overture 1812 by TchiakevskyMan*, Colossus of Columbia byAlexander, jes u, Joy of Man’sDesiring (from Cantata 147) byBach, Bolero by Mozkowski, Mis-souri Shindig by Owen Reed, TapRoots by Skinner.

The 1812 Overture was writtenIn 1880 for a musical festival or-ganised in Moscow by NicholasRubinstein. The work is descrip-tive of the events of 1812, whenNapoleon, after his victory atBorodin, marched on Moscowwith his armies.

“Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring”is said to be one of the bestknown of Bach’s musical settings.It is especially popular in num-erous transcriptions. The “Bo-lero** is a brisk Spanish dance Inthree-quarter time. It’s character-istic rhythm is the rhythm ofcastanets, which are used as anaccompaniment to the dance bythe dancers themselves.

“Tap Roots’* is a condensedscore from the original. It is nota symphony form, but descrip-tive; more or less a tone poem. Atthe opening the woodwinds andhorns announce the principaltheme, and describe the South be-fore the civil war.

The Musical Festival concert ’was held Sunday evening, May |4, 8 o'clock at Lee auditorium. Dr. 'Harry R. Wilson, guest conductor. 'The program for the evening was jas follows:

The college choir sang threenumbers: “Glory to God, “Jacob’sLadder’’ and “Peace Must ComeLake a Troubadour.” JacquelineJohnson, pianist, played “BalladeF Minor Op. 53” by Chopin.

“He who works with his handsIs a laborer. He who works withhis hands and mind is a crafts-man. He who works with hishands, mind and heart is an art-ist*
