Centennial
Penn State Claims Waring,
Troxe//, Others in Music
From Hollywood's movie stu
dios to the stage of New York's
Metropolitan Opera Company,
former Penn State students have
made a name for themselves in
the field of music.
One of the best known is Fred
Waring, conductor of the Penn
sylvanians, and a trustee of his
alma mater. Appropriately, Wil
liam G. Waring, his great grand
father, was one of the founders
of the University, which cur
rently is celebrating the centen
nial of its founding.
Although Waring originally
came to the campus in 1920 to
study engineering, he soon had
a four-piece band called "Waring
Banjazztra" which played at stu
dent dances and launched him
on his career.
Stuaent organizations such as
Thespians, a group which pre
sents musical revues, and an or
chestra, band and choruses, of
fered outlets for the talents of
many past and present-day col
legians.
An older popular favorite,
Alexander P. Gray 111, starred
in such hits of the twenties as
"Sally," "No, No, Nanette" and
the Ziegfeld Follies. Gray earned
an industrial engineering degree
in 1912.
On the distaff side, a Penn
State alumna, Barbara Troxell,
is one of the world's best-known
interpreters of Mozart operatic
roles. Miss Troxell entered the
University in 1933 to study
mathematics, but later became a
music major.
She made her debut with the
Metropolitan in 1950, and has
sung with many of this country's
best known symphony orches
tras, in addition to concertizing
frequently abroad.
Radio and television have also
claimed the services of many
Penn State music graduates, and
the music department is par
ticularly proud of the hundreds
of teachers trained under its aus
pices.
Campus Party Committee
Campus party steering commit
tee will meet at 7 p.m. tomorrow
night in 110. Willard to approve
appointments to the ' committee,
Allen Davies, clique chairman,
has announced.
The meeting will be open to

Only one per cent of the stu
dents who concentrate on Eng
lish, history, or social sciences in
college will go into careers in
those fields, a study made at the
University of Michigan indicates.
