...Buddy Schutz and trombonist Don Matteson are two of the best. Besides having a marvelous classical background, one of tenor saxman Herby Haymer's joys in life is to work in things like "Hymn to the Sun" in arrangements of "Liza"--also making faces that only a mother could love or a jitterbug appreciate...

...songs will be hits. They may not be as brilliant as "Night and Day," but still they are the tunes you will be humming for the next six months. After some of the filthier lyrics are strained out, the air waves will be carrying "When Love Beckoned," "But in the Morning, No," "Do I Love You?", and "It Was Written in the Stars."

...this is not the only type of art in the Germanic Museum. It offers us a wide diversity in types of art; we are able to travel from the crisp little sketches by Oberlaender to a decidedly harsh watercolor by George Grosz. In this painting, called "Brotherly Love," there can be found the bloodshed, lust, and intensity of passion which characterizes war. His bright colors shed a distasteful but highly effective glow, and the physical gyrations of his men serve to heighten the wild and futile nature of armed conflict. Grosz never minces words; he seldom argues...
