Literary Review
‘Spain’ Explores Her Inner Soul

by J. A, Gomez

Nikos Kazantzakis, SPAIN (New
York, 1963), Simon and Schuster,
254 pages — $5.00,

Like D, H. Lawrence, Nikos Kaz~
antzakis was a frenzied prophet who
Preached a Dionysian vision of life,
Like Lawrence, he was a world
traveler who sought some unobtain-
able ideal synthesis.

Both writers met with failure
in their quest, but both writers
produced penetrating “travel
books’’ about the many lands that
they visited,

Spain by Nikos Kazantzakis is
not a “travel book”’ in the ordinary
sense of the word. The reader sees
little of the peaceful Spanish coun-
tryside and the everyday life of
the people, but he feels the depths
of a people’s soul,

Kazantzakis’ portrait of Spain is
tinted by a mytho-historical, color-
ful, and visionary explosion ofemo-
tion and philosophy. Out of this
unique vision rides the undying heart
of Spanish life — Don Quixote,

“The world has emerged from
God’s hands, rife with injustice
and shortcomings. And he, the Knight
of the Ideal, was duty-bound to set
it right. For Don Quixote’s work
begins where God’s leaves off,’’

Don Quixote
Spain, like the idealistic hero
of La Mancha, set out on an adven-
turous dream, The Spanish con-
quistador desired to bring Chris-
‘tianity and Spanish rule to the world,

here is a book
that is
helping us

to

think
clearly

In these troublesome times it
takes some doing to keep one's
perspective to appraise world
conditions with intelligence
and to come up with satisfying
answers, This bouk, Science and
Health with Key to the Serip-
tures by Mary Baker Eddy, has
helped many of us to do this, [t
can help you, too.

We invite you to come to our
meetings and to hear how we
are working out our problems
through applying the truths of
Christian Science,

In 1588, the reality of the English
navy punctured this Don Quixotesque
dream, and, like her hero, Spain
returned to her homeland to await
her last joust with death,

Kazantzakis claims that, along
with Ulysses, Faust, and Hamlet,
Don Quixote is deeply rooted in
the hearts of men. ‘'For perhaps
of all the princes, Don Quixote
most faithfully mirrors the fate
of man,”

Don Miguel Unamuno

The modern representative of Don
Quixote is Don Miguel Unamuno.
Like the idealistic hero, Unamuno’s
thoughts and plans for action are
hidden in the misty clouds of a
dream,

Most thinkers claimed that twen-
tieth century Spain should be Eur-
opeanized; others felt that she should
remain within her own borders and
tradition, Unamuno attempted to heal
the wounded heart of Spain; he
desired to Spanify Europe.

“We are Africans, We are not
sarcastic wits and mathematicians,
like the Europeans. We are not
scientists, We use the things dis-
covered by them: electricity, the
railway, the telephone, etc,

‘But our spirit is different: we
are mystical and tragic, Our in-
ability to adapt ourselves to Eur-
opean culture will give us the
strength to create a new culture
of our own,"

Despair

In his last years, this defeated
Spaniard was also forced to return
to his homeland, his own inner being,
and await death,

His only constant companion was
despair, In one of his last works,
Saint Emmanuel the Good, Martyr,
he tells the story of a Catholic
priest who attempts to give the
People a faith in which he himselt
cannot believe

During the Spanish Civil War,
Kazantzakis and Unamuno met in
the Falange stronghold of Sala-
manca, Ufamuno poured forth his
troubled soul to his Greek friend,

“ALL of these things are happening
because the Spaniards don’t believe
in anything! Nothing...Nothing! They
are desperados... The Spanish people
have gone mad! Not only the Spanish
Deople; the whole world today... What
is our duty? ‘To tide the truth
from the people..if they knew the
truth, they couldn't go on. They
wouldn't want to live any more, The
people need inyth, illusion

legend is Don Juan. Kazantzakis’
Portrayal of Don Juan, like that
of Albert Camus in The Myth of
Sisyphus, presents a man who is
not in quest of the Ideal Love,

He loves each woman with the
same passion and delight, and he
knows that his love is merely
momentary. ‘He possesses; he is
not possessed — and that is his
Ppower,”’

To Kazantzakis, Don Juan rep-
resents the Spirit, ‘the wakeful
wandering flame,’ which leaps up
and escapes the clutches of woman
— Matter.

Don Juan and Don Quixote, passion
and idealism, form the rvots of the
Spanish people, and Kazantzakis at-
tempts to translate his mythical
vision of these people to the un-
familiar reader,

His verbal portraits are otten as
colorful, grotesque, and symboli-
cally personal as the visual por-
traits of El Greco. ‘He (El Greco)
succeeded, by his line and color,
in crystallizing an eternal phantom:
the indestructible despairing soul
of man,’’

Kazantzakis attempts a similar
purpose. At times, he is quite suc-
cessful.

Movie Review

The CIRTNECOGE

by Elizabeth Stroud

Some evening, probably in the very near future,
(if it hasn’t already taken place) the usual emptiness
of winter-time dorm field will give way to complete
havoc; the usually crowded study lounges will concede
to the all-important first snowfall.

Provided, of course, that the snow’s good packing,
and that there is enough to pack, this very common
occurrence can offer one of the happiest times here
at State. There’s no formal organization, no pressure
(except an occasional being dragged outside physi-
cally) to join in; no nothin’, ’cept a heap of fun.

Pressures build up, and suddenly it hits you right
between the eyes, and you don’t care how childishly
you act — so you pick up a snowhall twice as big, and
hit back! The grade-school excitement of building
forts, staging attacks, and running desperately from
the enerny, is suddenly rekindled; the crazy mixture
of thrilled annoyance that comes with snow down your
back, returns in all its glory.

Maybe it’s the unaccustomed vacation from the way
‘an adult’? in college should act; mayhe it’s the ob-
vious exhilaration of the frosty cold; maybe it’s the
secret grin because he (or she) is aiming more snow
your direction than anyone else’s; whatever your own
special reason, the dorm field fracas is thoroughly
enjoyable,

Don’t forget: sew your coat buttons on securely,
avoid long, winding scarves, and dress warmly (the
medical office has limited gallons of Cepacol), but
for heaven’s sake, join in! One ofthese days, there’s
going to be a real hum-dinger of a battle — I hope
you'll take advantage of it!

‘Auteur’ Theory Gains Popularity

Constitution

During the committee repurts, the
State University Revue constitution
was brought up for approval. A con-

Sorie Senators complained that
the constitution was poorly worded,
and that Senate should not have the

of director,

Senator Guddat ’66 also pointed
out the fact that the proposed con-

stitution states that the business
manager of the Revue was to be a
member of Finance Committee or

Enshrine His Ideals

We are greatly distrubed about the fast-
developing mania to enshrine the late Pres-
ident John F, Kennedy’s memory in the
building of monuments and the renaming
of public properties in his honor.

We feel that he was dynamic, vibrant,
and vital to our age, and that it is right
that his memory be preserved. However,
we feel that energies to this end are being
misdirected to projects which do not em-
body his ideals,

President Kennedy built his own monu-
ments to himself through pioneering and
creating such projects as the Peace Corps.
His memory will be perpetually alive as
the men and women of the United States
go forth to spread his mission throughout
the world.

A Good Innovation

We applaud the introduction of an all-male cheer-
leading squad to State University, Instances of marked
innovations are few and far between at State,and when- of
ever we see something really different tried we are

pleased.

Female cheerleading has been a dismal failure at
State for the last few years. Athletic Board decided to
try a completely new approach to the problem this year
Subsequent plans call for the

addition of women to the squad.

We like this approach, A firm male nucleus has been
formed to which State’s co-eds can be added at a later

date,

So far the male cheerleaders have done a fine job in
whipping up crowd support at basketball games, These
men have taken the job in the face of much criticism

by small-minded upperclassmen,

Male cheerleaders are accepted facts at other uni-
versities. We hope that the student body will come to
support them here, There is a very definite need for

them,

Athletic Board Nearly Powerless

We do not like the present set-up of
Athletic Advisory Board. The Board's one
faculty and seven student members have
very little to say about athletics at State,

In the all-important matters of inter-
collegiate policy and finances the Board
is empowered only to make recommenda-

Stude

But the rights of the individual are
being infringed upon.... This kind of
tripe has been heard at recent Senate
meetings. Another example of the stupid
thought current on this campus is that

“‘why should Senate control buses???
It is time that the narrow minded neo-
Neanderthals of this campus woke to the
fact that transportation monopolies are
the rule and not the exception. Senate
in controlling all buses is moving in the
right direction,

If all buses were chartered by the same
group working with one or two companies,
a tremendous number of students would
receive relatively inexpensive bus rides
home.

At Thanksgiving, the first Senate spon-
sored buses hit the highways. Some of
the buses arranged for by Services Com-

Gary Holway, one of State’s most brilliant athletes, hooks up
one of countless 2 pointers he scored in four years on varsity.

overall scoring was outstanding (303
to only 217 for their opponents

However, this unusual string wa
stopped and it was only a few year
later that the coach was forced to
say, “It has been so long since we
have enjoyed a string of victories
that memory of such an event has
become very much mildewed in my
mind.”

“Doc! Takes Over

State produced little in the way of
outstanding basketball teams until
Dick Sauers took over as coach in
1955, The next year the team posted
a very creditable 17-5 season with
freshman Gary Holway leading the
team in scoring, The 57-58 year
was a repeat 17-5 year with the
team averaging an overwhelming
82.2 points per game,

That year, State participated in
its first post season tournament,
the Oswego State College Tourney.
The following year the team record
was 17-8 and once again Gary Hol-
way, a Senior now, led the way.
Playing four years of varsity ball,
Holway broke every existing record
and captured the hearts of State
College supports,

Probably the most brilliant ath-
lete in State’s history, he was hon-
ored with a “Gary Holway Night?’
at his last game. It was written
that, ‘The occasion will pay tribute
to a player whose stature in all
respects, appears but once in many
college generations,’"

But, playing on the team that
year was a Sophomore, Don Cohen,
who was to go on to break all but
a few of Holways scoring and re-
bounding records.

The ‘61-62 team finished 19-6
and last year the hoopers were
second in the State Tourney, Dr.
Richard Sauers has built upa strong
basketball tradition in 8 years and
it may be some indication of things
to come,

Bright Future

The University grows; its stu-
dents now pay tuition; its student
body increases and with it the num-
ber of alumni; the school becomes
multi-purpose and gains a great-
er reputation; a modern and well-
equipped campus appears; the re=
sult may be more and better ath-
leties, even football, better equip-
ment and facilities both for the
athletes and the fans, and an over-
all revival in athletic attitude.

Albany State has never been an
athletic power. Her teams are not
to be found in the nation’s top ten;
she possesses no ivy covered foot-
ball stadium; her most oustanding
stars have seldom been given All-
American rating; she does not give
out athletic scholarships, nor does
she spend any huge sums of money
on her teams.

Yet, despite these facts, Albany
State University possesses a sur-
prisingly involved and intriguing
athletic history, Laboring under
puny budgets, a strictly academic
tradition, and administrations which
for the most part have not looked
with favor on athletics, her students
have fought a long battle for more
and better spurts programs,

In 1916, the seed for a football
team was planted. That year, State
was to have played its first football
schedule. The only difficulty was
that there was no team to fulfill
the obligations.

It was written of the phaitom
team’s manager that ‘‘Manager Ho-
hause is a good diplomat, for none
but a diplomat could have secured
games without having a team to
back him.’”? The first football in
the history of State took place in
1916 when the upperclassmen beat
the frosh 20-0.

This intramural program was ex-
panded to an intercollegiate sched-
ule, and in 1922 a frosh squad
played its first game. During this
initial season they took on the likes
of Union, Colgate, and Manhattan,
managing to win only one game.

Hockey
A hockey team, playing its games
on a student constructed rink, was
also organized for the first tune in
1916. During the few seasons that
State’s skaters were to cut the ice
in intercollegiate competition they
lost to RPI (4-2, 4-0. 5-1) and to
the Army squad from West Point
(10-1 and 16-0).

In 1925, neither football nor
hockey received appropriations in
the budget and have not been brought
back since,

Other Athletic proposals fared
differently, A tennis team was pro-
posed and organized in 1916 and is
still a part of the spring program,

Cross-country has had several
atlempts to make a gu of it (1920
and 1934), but it was not until three
short Seasons ago, in 1961, that it
gained a firm foothold, Since that
time it has sprouted rapidly into
one of State’s most outstanding
teams, this year going undefeated in
dual meets and finisaing 14th in the

BOO-WHO DEP'T: State University’s Who's Who list is a disgrace that
must never be repeated. It’s a disgrace both for its inclusions and omis-
sions. Some of those seniors voted on the list by the student body have no
more place in Who's Who than the two of us have in the Social Register.
Let’s get real! It’s bad enough that some people get elected to MYSKANIA,
must the error be duplicated? Among those who were omitted were Sharon
House and Robert Weiboldt, presidents of the D, & A, Council and Forum
of Politics, respectively, We also noticed with great pain that the student
body failed to recognize Joe Gomez, the editor of its literary magazine
and the student who, for almost two years, has supplied the State Univer-
sity News with its only quality book reviews. And how could anyone fail to
honor the outstanding actress and actor of the class, Gloria Avner and
Boh Willower, who have starred over and over again in Theatre produc-
tions for the last four years?? We simply cannot fathom the utter
stupidity and narrowness of the school, One additional note: only six out
of the thirty-three are independents, as are all of the above omitted
names. The Greeks stink all over for this: rewarding achievement should
cross lines of house loyalty. Well, one happy note; at least Bounie
Batchelor was vindicated for the MYSKANIA fiasco — and then again, with
some decent reforms, it might not happen again.

COMMONS- STATING DEP" The Commons is su dingy is unbear-

tellectual

by Dr. Theodore Adams

For a number of reasons, I be-
lieve that our University is intel-
lectually more lively that it was
six years ago.

First, as a movie-goer, I note
improvements, Six years ago, the
State University News had no movie
reviews, but only a column in which
two funny men (though they really
were funny) wise-cracked about
films. The space was kept open,
sv to speak, while we waited for
Paul Jensen to appear and fill it
properly

Furthermore, the two-movie-se-
ries — we now have three — were
not of the highest interest. Now,

Dr. Theodore Adams

one must look twice to tell the low-
row series from the high-brow
ones: all three are of good quality.

New Thought

Skandalon and suppression some
times appear to be murmuring therr
last, but we have had them, and both
have helped stimulate the talk which
is al unportant part of education,
The State University News is hetter
than it tised to be: one thinks, for
example of Joseph Gomez's book
reviews last year, How interesting
and intelligent (hey were!

And articles on the
hustory of our school...

Now and again there are wonder
{ul moments in the classroom, Once
when T began a discussion of a play
with what Ttook to be just the right
question, a student interrupted
quickly to, But that should be your
last question, [think you should begin

this y

by asking...”

T remember, too, a class so ine
terested i the work that the vaguest

imaginable question ~— even ‘What
would you like to say today?’’ could
produce a lively and pertinent dis-
cussion at the beginning of any ses-
sion, But I can’t say that classes
grow livelier with each passing
year, I don’t know which year I
ought to award the prize to,

I am not sure, but I think per-
haps the dramatic activity at our
school has not improved in the last
six years, It has always been on a
remarkably high level. It continues
to be so.

Improvement Necessary

But, of course, we dare not loll
on our cultural laurels, Let us glance
next at tasks that remain, First of
all, I think the State University
News might do more. Perhaps It
could not review all the lectures,
concerts, plays, and art exhibits
that the city offers, but could it not
come much closer to this ideal than
it does?

Now that the University is spread-
ing itself all over town the Albany
Institute of History and Artis closer
than ever, Bul I never see a student
there.

I don’t propose that all students
study painting and become connois~
seurs (though it wouldn't be a bad
idea), but I'm curious to knw why
students don’t find looking at plc-
tures and talking about them a
natural and jolly activity, Pm very
glad that students do read novels
and think about them before taking
a course in novel-reading!

Students Prissy
“Our students don’t bubble; they
are so afraid of going to extremes
that they don't let themselves care
very much about anything’? a tac-
ulty wife said to me the other day.
There is at least some truth in
her remark, Aud a number of our
students are prim, proper, and
prissy. Lrecall the student who re-
fused to read Mark Twain's The
Mysterious Stranger lecause Satan

is a leading character in it

Aud T have heard students de-
houneing the shortness of fashion=
able skirts as though it constituted
a serious moral issue, Let us hope

Intellectual Atmosphere: Part IL
Dr. Adams Feels Atmosphere Livelier

that those of us who teach are doing
all we can to discourage such small-
mindedness,

So long as any topics remain
marked off as unsuitable for dis-
cussion, education either stops or
takes on strange cramps and con-
tortions,

Barriers Grow

As our school grows larger, bar-
riers between students and teachers
will grow higher, If this is not to be
so, perhaps all of us on both sides
of the barrier will have to try hard-
er than we have to preserve the
possibilities of friendship,

Perhaps we shall be more hesi-
tant in using such phrases as 'syco-
phant of her teacher’s’’ and“‘curry~
ing favor with his pupils.’? While I
may seem to be talking now about
the social and not the intellectual
atmosphere, I believe that I ain
ending on the subject,

by Gory Murdock

The Goober’s won impressively
for the second straight week, de-

Bonner (14), Hickey (13), and Gutt-

the second straight week. Procopio
was high for Potter with 10 points,

Horriers Fight KB

Coach Munsey’s Harriers made
a good showing, although losing to
KB, 59-45. The Harriers are this
year’s cross-country team, trying
their hand at basketball.

John Gleason led the KB attack
with 20 points. 16 points by Gleason,
in the first half, held KB together,
and enabled them to lead 28-24 at
intermission, Perkins and Kimball

HAMMING
IT UP

Coach Sauers will be wearing green ties in the
near future. Why? He is becoming more fond of the
Irish each day. A lad by the name of O’Donovan is
the key factor in the big change. Jumping Jim, a gift
from Broome Tech, has made like a janitor of the
boards, Gathering in anything that bounces off the
rim he has a two game total of 30 rebound.

He hasn’t missed a foul shot yet and we certainly
hope he doesn’t for the rest of the season. O’Dee is
quite a break for the Peds.

What’s this, a new offense? Under fire from sev-
eral people as being a conservative in the Dangerous
“‘Dan’? category, Coach S, has rallied with a new
Varsity shuffle. Congratulations on this new addition,
and may it cause many victories.

The Armory was filled almost to capacity, last
Saturday night. Some people aren’t sure if the
crowds were there to cheer for State or curiosity
seekers. Perhaps somewhere in the huge crowd
was the god like being that judges the masculinity
of others,

If we’re real lucky he might publish another libelous
edition, Some people pick very poor ways to fight an
idea they don’t like.

A footnote on the New Paltz game has been added
by their coach. In a short interview he said that he
would have five transfers eligible next semester. He
had hopes for the return oi Fred Sadler, but was not
too optimistic on this score.

Anyone that has not seen an AMIA fourth league
basketball game cannot say that he has seen every-
thing. To try to describe one is a near impossibility,
but we are going to make a feeble attempt. It is a
terrible combination of tackle football, soccer, and
volleyball, The referees are amazing. They make
good calls at the wrong time and bad calls most of
the time. The Globetrotters could learn a few new
routines from these guys.

Wrestling Team Romp
Beats Brooklyn Poly 27-:

Winning every match against an inexperienced Brook-
lyn Poly team, the Peds recorded their first victory of
the season 27 The lost points were due to an inability
to fill one weight class. The contest which was held in
a Brooklyn YMCA gym, featured four pins by Ped
wrestlers.

These pins were by Bill Thomas (123) over Mike
Siegal in 3:34, Bob Verrigeni (137) over Steve Altman
in 5:38 and Larry Thomas (167) over Richard Kubeck
in 1:58, Ron Smith, who will be eligible next semester,
showed good prospects as he pinned Jerry Lietman in
1:18. Since Ron was ineligible, five points were lost.

John Bennett, John Robb, Richard Robellotto and
Gene Monaco each defeated their opponents by de-
cisions, Because of the inexperience of Poly’s wrest-
lers the Peds were easily able to take the match, This
was Poly’s second defeat of the season,

Movie Review

Critic Feels Huston Follows Auteur Policy

by Paul Jensen

John Huston is a director who
has arbitrarily been labeled ‘‘non-
auteur,’’

It seems strange that directors
such as John Ford, who constantly

depend on screen-
plays by many dif-
ferent people, are
classed as the auth-
ors of their films,
while the ‘fallen
idol’? Huston, who
began his career as
a script writer and
almost always at least collaborates
on this aspect of his films, is

quickly dismissed from considera-
tion,

Despite the auteur ‘critics’? de-
termined efforts to rationalize them
away, Huston has made at least four
particularly excellent films, and one
which is definitely a classic,

First Flick Clicks
His first picture, The Maltese
Falcon, turned out to be one of the
best mysteries every filmed. This
is due as much to the direction,
surprisingly accomplished for abe-
ginner, and the script as to the
cast and quality of the original
Dashiell Hammett novel

The auteur ‘‘critics’’ will con-

The CIRTNECOGE

by Elizabeth Stroud
Is this year so much more difficult than years past?
For some reason, people seem to be ‘‘under the weath-
er’? more than usual, Beneath the meaningless response
of ‘I’m fine,’? you can’t help noticing a pretty wide-

spread lack of being fine.

Maybe it’s just getting toward the end of the semes-
ter, but I doubt it; this discouragement has been present
for some time, People who are normally happy are
walking around brooding; bright students are discussing
the possibility of leaving school.

State has always been filled with academic pressures
if not equal to those of other schools, then frequently
greater. This year, it’s really outdoing itself, If this
is a conscious effort, a planned movement in‘‘cracking

down,”’

then perhaps there’s an explanation — some

logical excuse, If this isn’t the case, then there’s cause

for real worry,

I’m not talking about any lack of ‘frah-rah-State-is
great’? enthusiasm, and I hope no one has misunder-

stood me. There is,

however,

a depressive apathy

which can be remedied only by individual re-evalua-

tion and effort,

Maybe I’m making’ a hig: thing out of nothing — | wish

I could believe that,

In any event, there’s not much

drive that is hobbling such a surprising number of

students,

Perhaps with vacation approaching, some
oan finally be allotted to serious thought about

this problem, I sincerely hope that, instead of in-
creasing participation in what could become a deadly

downward spiral of morale, a

rational, more opti-

mistic attitude and answer can be found, The potential

for a

reversal in the present state of things exists.

Let's stop this insidious leak before it gets way out of

This is one part of the current
effort on the part of the Kevue
Committee to open the Revue to
all interested in taking part,

cede that it is a good film, but they
refuse to admit that Huston had
anything to contribute. The success
of the picture, they say, isdue tothe
good fortune that the cast (Humph-
rey Bogart, Mary Astor, Sidney
Greenstreet, Peter Lorre) was ide-
ally suited to the characters,

The Big Sleep, from a Raymond
Chandler novel, is the same type
of tough, private-eye film, with
many of the same players, Its main
distinction is a script that gets the
viewer completely confused, and
hever resolves the plot.

The audience is no closer to a
solution at the end than at any
point during the picture.

It is, however, directed by an
auteur, Howard Hawks, and so is
naturally a better film than that of
Huston, The rationalization: — its
inconclusiveness makes it more true
to life,

Taking the two films alone, to
stand or fall on their own individual
merits, without regard for the rest
of the director's career, it is ob-
vious that Falcon is by far a better
film,

Other Films

mentary edited by Huston from
World War IT combat footage, 1s

The Asphalt Jungle (1950) is an-

“perfect crime? school. Huston's

Courage is his fourth fine film,

But the one unquestionable classic

is The Treasure of Sierra Madre,

But itis perhaps in the recording
field that their popularity can best
be gauged, In three years they have
sold over 71/2 million single dises
and 3.1/2 nulhon LP's, their list of
hits being headed by such best-
selers as the themes from “The

Ho mght be suid of Ferrante and
Teicher that they have been most
lusteumental in bringing movie
themses to the attention of the pub-
hie, which fact has earned them the

ean.”

The world-renowned piano duo of Ferrante and Teicher will

appear at State in February.

The career of Ferrante and
Teicher as a team had its origins
when they were six years old and
students at New York’s Juillard
School of Music,

During their days at Juillard they
studied with the same teachers, and
later were graduated as plano ma-
jors under the late distinguished
Carl Friedberg.

After graduating, they decided to
try their luck as a concert team,
Following a brief period of con-
cortizing they returned to Juilard

and composition, and during the next
few years combined teaching with a
limited schedule of concerts

for them to give up their duvies

unusual sounds giving the effect of
a banjo, guitar, bongo drum, ete,

They used these ‘gimmicks! in
their encores, aiid soon found they
had created a Frankenstein, with
audiences clamoring more for en-
cores than the regular program,

At this time they were recording
for Westminster Records, and the
recording company made a series
of albums with them, employing
their “gimmicks” as applied to the
“space sound.’ This was the begin-
hing of uew erra for Ferrante and
Teicher, When the producers of a
Hollywood short heard one of (hese
albums, they engaged the boys to
