Harris Hall Dedicated n Three-Day Program
Crowd of 2000 Hears Speakers Stress
Value of Art in Bovard Assemby
A colorful procession of trustees, deans, faculty, and jests of the present marched into Bovard auditorium yes-reday morning for the formal dedication of the new May rmerod Harris hall of the College of Architecture and Fine rts, a gift of Mrs. John W. Harris.
- i Closing this first day of a three-
day ceremony Frank Lloyd Wright, leading architect in the United States, addressed a capacity crowd last night in Bovard auditorium.
“I am proud to have a small part in the growth of the university. Its p^st achievements speak for them- ’ selves and I hope that the building will be an inspiration to students , aim faculty alike in helping them to create a love of beauty and spir- | ituai uplift,” said Mrs. Harris who ! is an alumna of SC and a member
of thi board of trustees.
EXPRESSES GRATITUDE
Dr. Rufus B. von KleinSmid ex- ; prejsen the university’s gratitude in ♦his unparalleled opportunity for seivice and growth. Although he admitted that this is a scientific age, I he challenged the thought that its progress is greater than that of art. Expressions on canvas have devel- j cped just as have the results of test tubes to make life more pleasant ! and lasting, said the president.
“The awakening of the souls of ' men in this troubled era is no more wonderful than his awakening to what we call truth and beauty. In this gift we find such expression of permanent beauty and of the finer arts.” Dr. von KleinSmid said in conclusion.
KELLEY ADDRESSES GROUP
The theme of the address of Dr. i Charles Fabens Kelley, assistant di- ! rector of the Art Institute of Chi-cago, was the lack of time spent in ; viewing the works of arts in great museums He pointed out that the j i average visitor to museums of art spends less time in viewing the works of great masters than it takes most people to drink a coke. “After all." he said, “art is primarily a matter of entertainment and should ! be enjoyed.”
Mr. Wright pointed out that architecture is the sense and practice of uation

Among the university selections. “Fight On” leads in bein^ requested with the Klaxon march second. Over the radio the first song te "Song of Troy."
"There is a surprising amount of interest in the numbers the band plays.” the band leader says. “An average of four letters a week are received requesting songs, not to mention numerous phone calls. Of course the calls and lettefs are not always requests, but sometimes offer criticisms such as to how fast the band should march and
the way it should.”
This semester the band introduced one new number. “We Cheer for SC” by Callie Holden, arranger for Fox studios, and revived one old song “Trojan War Flag'- at the request of Kenny Seiling. yell king.
Popular music, although not in swing form, will be played at the hockey games as for basketball games.
The most embarrassing situation the band has confronted this semester is failure to respond to a constant request of older alumni. The requested piece te the “University Hymn” which used to be the SC alma mater. The reason the band could not play th* piece was that there te no oopy obtainable.
