League Sponsors Play
“Buttered Side Up,” a spark-
ling three-act comedy, was pre-

Parish Hall by the-St. John Luther
League of San Antonio, on Fri-
day, December 6, at 8 p. m. un-
der the sponsorship of the TLC
Luther League.
The three acts of the play were
concerned with one particularly
hectic week-end. Hilarious com-
plications followed each other so
rapidly that there seemed no way
out, but like most troubles in real
life, everything finally landed
“Buttered Side Up.”

Missionary Leaves
(Continued from Page 1)
the Japanese invaded the island,
her husband, Capt. Radke, re-
mained in New Guinea to pilot a
mission schooner, and was cap-
tured by the Japanese late in
1942. It was in 1944 that Capt.
Radke was killed while being
moved as a prisoner of war from
the path of the advancing Allies.
Preparing for further and bet-
ter work by attending TLC last
semester and this past summer,
Mrs. Radke, since returning to
the United States in September,
1944, with her two children, Elea-
nor and Hubert, has anxiously
awaited this call, which will en-
able her to continue her beloved
work for the Lord, and, as she
puts it, “to go back to her home
in Australia.”
Mildred Miller, ’44, Teaching
Mildred Miller, an ex of 1944, is
now teaching school at Wallis,
Texas.

TOPS IN WAX _ spike Jones
debuts his “Other Orchestra”
on the Victor label. On Minka,
ws,,, w "the A side,
George Rock
takes some
Herbert L.
Clark varia-
tions on the
trumpet to
show his tech-
n i q u e and
skill, then re-
verts to corn,
a la Clyde
McCoy, in a “Sugar Blues”
style of wah-wah. George has
been with Spike’s City Slickers
for the past three years and is
a show-stopper wherever the
Slickers perform. Eddie Kusby
is the star of Lassus Trombone,
the reverse, and plays with sur-
prisingly fine technique and
control. Spike's idea is to pre-
sent some highly musical listen-
ing intermingled with subtle
humor without fog-horn and
cowbell panic.
S
EFFECT i.iUSIC—Jewel records
makes another impressive series
of Boyd Raeburn releases: The
Man With The Horn and Hip
Boyd’s; Prelude To The Daum
and Duck Waddle. These four
sides are all instrumentals and
find Raeburn in still another
groove. Raeburn collectors will
search for adjectives, others
who can take him or leave him
wdll be impressed, and the nan-
likers will shrug these off. The
two “A” sides (Man With The
Horn and Prelude) find big
band performance of an ex-
travagant nature, highly me-
lodic and surprisingly arranged.
Both arrangements for these
titles were made by Johnny
Richards and do justice to the
great musical talent within the
band. The “B” sides are pur-
posely along the commercial
vein, but interesting—and un-
derstandable.
DANCE — Count Basie goes
Dizzy Gillespie: He opens up
Mutton Leg, an instrumental,
with a few be-bops that flank
his work on the piano. This
progresses to an excellent and
outstanding trumpet ride by
Snooky Young and some strato-
spheric sax harmonics by Illi-
Jtois Jacquet. The record is
sparked by the great Basie
drummer, Jo Jones. Here is
heat enough to last all winter.
On the reverse, the Count con-
trasts with a mild Fla-Ga-La-
Pa, which songstress Ann Mo.are
warbles (Columbia). Capitol’s
newest release offers the trum-
pet and orchestra of Billy But-
terfield on Stardust. The open-
ing is reminiscent of Billy’s pre-
vious trumpeting of the famous
Carmichael opus for Artie Shaw.
' The whole side contains the
Butterfield horn, the first time
he has really been heard since
the formation of this new band.
Sooner Or Later, the reverse,
spots more of his Hackett-qual-
itv trumpet and a vocal by Pat
O’Conner

good taste in singing and ar-
ranging without too many
noise-makers to spoil the rhythm
and atmosphere. Phil Brito

with Either It’s Love Or It
