'Screwy' Titles, Weird Arrangements Tag Raymond Scott as Mystery Man To many, Raymond Scott, who will play at Interfraternity on March 27, is a mystery , becaust of his uniquely-titled, surrealistic dance arrangements. Not even his most devout fans u feel that they have "figured out." But Scott says he can't understand this. His orchestra is of 'normal;size —l3 musicians plus Scott and vocalists Billy Leach and Dorothy Collins. It has the correct num ber of brass, reed, , and rhythm. But there ends the band's similar ity to any other orchestra.

The band's style calls for a "different" introduc tion, which flows into the melody of the tune and results in a lilting danceable rhythm. Scott's "radi cal" arrangements immediately identify his music, and whether it be 'an original or a "pop," it has the Scott touch. Among Scott's better-known numbers are "In a Subway Far From Ireland" "Huckleberry Duck," "War Dance for Wooden Indians," "Toy Trumpet," "Din ner Music for a Pack of Hungry Cannibals," "Eighteenth Century Drawing Room," and "Power house." rgiatt Weather Occasional Showers PRICE: THREE CENTS Mailmen Cop EIWA Team Title; Three Lions Take Honors Fighting Nittany Lions roared their way through a maze of pros pective champions and upset fav ored Pqnn to stalk off with the coveted Eastern Intercollegiate Wrestling Association team title at the annual. classic held in Rec Hall last weekend.
