Our freshmen are just at the beginning
of the long trail and are experiencing that
sense of maladjustment. There are those
among them who will waver and find adjustment severe. There are others who will
acclimate themselves and becom outstanding in our college community. They will gain
confidence in themselves, confidence that
will help them not only now, but when they
go from these nails of learning to meet the
realities of life. Entering college will not be
the only change in environment that they
will meet. It will be. perhaps, the first in a

This week I would like to talk a
little about Frederic Chopin, pronounced 'Show-pan).
I guess you could call the Polish composer "the Poet of the
Piano." A frail and sickly genius
who did far more than write perfect piano music, Chopin alone
knew how to make a piano sing.
Did you see "A Song to Remember"? That picture should be
enough to make you like him. In
this picture, he played his famous
"Polonaise in A flat." Even on the
campus of S. T. C. you hear little
snatches here and there from the
Polonaise"—and of course the
well known "Till the End of Time"
taken from the beatiful piece.
I hiiefore. some of you might see
the closeness of the "popular" to
the beautiful "classic."
It is not really necessary to
draw a line between the "popular"
and the "classic"—and those who
have heard enough of all kinds of
can quickly get rid of the
habit. Listening to music Is fun in
any case as long as it is not a
performance of a duty. Don't try
to analyze your reactions, and do
not worry about the sneers of the
highbrows. You are getting fun

out of music. That is the main
thing.
Occasionally, you will run into
people who like to do nothing but
listen to music. They do not attempt to take part in it. Why do
they sit in a comfortable coma
around the piano and listen? Because they just plain love it! Maybe they don't know who's opus 6
7-8's it is or the key signatures,
but they simply sigh and say, "I
don't what it is. but I love It."
Why not ask the musician who
is performing, most of them, If
they know themselves, adore letting you know the answer.
I'm going to list several selections from Chopin that I think you
should get familiar with to nuJjl
a good start to learn to get the
most out of music from Chopin.
1. Chopin's Nocturnes.
2. Chopin's Polonaise in A flat
3. Chopin's Waltzs.
4. Chopin's Military Polonaise.
Quotation of the week:
Lives of great men all remind us
