BEHREND PLAYERS PRESENT SEASON'S FIRST
Famous
Entertains Students
The students of Behrend Campus, as well as the general public of
Erie, were treated to a fine jazz concert by the DON KREBS QUIN
TET Monday, Nov. 9, 1964. This program was presented by the Penn
sylvania State University Commonwealth Campuses Series.
The program was educational
as well as entertaining Mr.
Krebs explained the three main
factors to music and had each
member play his respective part.
The lighting system that was in
use added much to the show. The
amplyifing system projected the
sound in such a way that it seem
ed to be coming from all sides at
the same time.
The members of the DON
KREBS QUINTET and the in
struments are: Don Krebs, vibes;
Tyson Brown, alto sax; Ken Kuhn
drums; Bob Streeter, piano; Ange
lo Arcadipane, bass, and the vo
calist, Miss Harriet Richardson.
The DON KREBS QUINTET is
Central Pennsylvania's finest and
most professional jazz ensemble.
It was formed in 1953. For the
past three years, five State Uni
versity staff members have given
much of their time and effort to
the formation of a musical or
ganization which is dedicated to
playing the most advanced music
from the pens of America's lead
ing contemporary composers. In
presenting the DON KREBS

Jazz Quintet
ries offers the Penn State stu
dent body, an opportunity to hear
the finest jazz music this genera
tion has created.
Considering the dearth of co
herent music to be found on AM
radio and network TV, this con
cert series venture is particulary
creditable. and reflects the depth
of interest which the University
has in the cultural growth of the
individual student. The warmth
and vitality which the individual
members of the DON KREBS
QUINTET bring to their instru
ments adds to the lustre of their
performance and makes the mus
ical experience a very real and
human affair.

discussed the possibilities of a
Commission System, an All-Uni

the OSGA calendar.
The main objective of an All-
University Day would be to unite
the students of commonwealth
campuses at University Park in
order to participate in an activity
such as football which would be
followed by dinner and a dance.
The proposed Commission Sys
tem would consist of a president,
vice-president and three regional
coordinators. Each campus would
be responsible for different topics
and other campuses could obtain
information by contacting the
commission.
A bill dealing with changing the
set-up of the OSGA conferences
was written and introduced by
Tom Bundy. The proposed bill
