PAGE EIGHT Les Brown Crew Brings Star Vocalists, Musicians Bandleader Les Brown brings to Penn State tonight a grand crew of musicians and vocalists. The Band of Re nown was named The Top Recording Band of the Year in 1945. Les Brown recorded such favorite tunes as "Out of No where," "Sleigh Ride in July," "Robin Hood," "My Dreams Are Getting Better All The 'rime," and "Sentimental Jour ney;" (written by Les, himself). Blonde and lovely Doris Day heads the entourage of ace per formers with honey-sweet rendi tions of the latest tunes. This gorgeous vocalist is the highest paid singer in the land and often appears in three different cos tume changes during a dance ovening. "Butch" Stone, Comedian Supplying the novelty-comedy Ayle of music is "Butch" Stone. A rabid baseball fan, "Butch" was a high-school team-mate of Babe Young, formerly with the New York Giants. Before joining Brown's. orchestra, Stone h'ad. a band of his own, and was with Larry Clinton for a number of Years. "Butch" Stone's voicings of "Captain Kidd" and "Robin Hood" are an inimitable pair of tunes. Handling the ballad-type of song is Jack Haskell, .a new comer to the Band of Renown and just out of the service. This young fellow is up-and-corning in the "dreaming' while dancing" class of vocal interpretation. Featured on instruments are three outstanding dance-4band men, Ted Nash, Jimmy Zito, and Dick Shanahan. Ted Nash is the reed section headliner, playing a sweet tenor sax. Nash is noted :for-his extremely high range, go ing up to two octaves above the normal tenor range. Trumpeter, Drummer Jimmy Zito, ace trumpeter, is one of.. the spark plugs of Les Brown's band. Prior to being drafted, "Zete" was featured by Tommy Dorsey. On the drums is Dick . Shanahan, truly a show ;topper. An earnest performer, Shanahan spends his spare mo ments practicing toward as near perfection as possible. Les Brown formed his present band in 1938, after leading the "Blue Devils" at Duke Univers ity. Since that time, the Band of Renown has been on a steady up grade. Now at the top, Brown !brings to Penn State an outstand ing group of bandsmen for the "Moonlight Magic" dance to- , night.
