ELLINGTON TO LECTURE IN PAINE HALL MONDAY

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Duke Ellington, orchestra leader and jazz planist of the Harlem school, will lecture on "Negro Music in American" in the Music Building's Paine Hall Monday at 5 o'clock. Ellington will illustrate his lecture, which is being held under the auspices of the Music Department, with passages on the piano.

Squeezing in time between shows at Boston's RKO, the Duke will be here for only three-quarters of an hour, during which the lecture is open to the public without charge.

Denounced by some as being too smooth for a jazz musician, Ellington, who was called "The Immortal Duke of Hot" by the Prince of Wales on the Duke's London engagement in 1933, is nevertheless one of Americas outstanding colored musicians.
