MUSICAL SHOW TOMORROW TO SALUTE COLLEGE

Royal Canadians Will Play Students' Favorite Songs

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Guy Lombardo and his Royal Canadians will open a new series of "Musical Autograph" programs honoring American colleges at war, with a salute to Harvard tomorrow evening at 10 o'clock. Featuring the favorite songs of Harvard men, as determined by an informal SERVICE SEWS poll, the broadcast will be aired over 165 stations of the Blue Network. Lombardo has just completed a series of programs honoring the nation's various war industries.

Harvard's Hit Parade

Although the final selection has not yet been made, the following songs are high on the list of Harvard favorites: Time Waits for No One, Begin the Beguine, Smoke Gets in Your Eyes, Is You is or Is You Ain't My Baby? Rhapsody in Blue, Night and Day, I'll Be Seeing You, Star Dust, Swinging on a Star, and All the Things You Are. These songs will be played in the smooth manner that gained for Lombardo's Royal Canadian orchestra recognition of the "sweetest music this side of heaven."

Salute to College

In addition to the musical salute, the program will include a description of the part the University is playing in the national war effort as a training center for leaders and a laboratory for many of the outstanding American scientific contributions to victory.
