By G E O R G E L E V I N E
T h a t well known dictum " S w i n g ' s The T h i n g " very
aptly describes the present musical status of the country.
Not since the early days of rag-time has the popular fancy
been so completely captivated. S w i n g today i s truly a big
business run on a vast commercial scale. Some of its leading
exponents are as well known as the president and a few
are even higher paid. I shan't digress into the psychological
aspect of the situation other than to state that swing is new.

The prejudice of the average
student concerning opera could
easily be dispelled i f he w o u l d
actually study opera. A good percentage of these students w i l l
certainly change t h e i r views and
find opera m u c h more enjoyable
than Jazz.
There are many people w h o
have experienced this change i n c l u d i n g myself a n d therefore I
have come t o the conclusion t h a t
we should a l l s t r i v e t o gain some
knowledge of opera and use i t as
