In Response to A Letter
their applause of praise. One se-lection
entitled San Francisco Str-eetcar
through its Jazz interpre-tation
actually gave you the feel-ing
that you were in a moving str-eetcar
and this mood was kept up
to the end of the selection.
The bass player Gene Rice
played a solo selection entitled
Ruae Old Man. Through the deep
mellow tone of his bass he was able
to convey the e:)q)ression of a rude
old man. The drummer for the
quartet gave an excellent display of
his talent on the drums with nls
solo. The evening closed with a
piece entitled Take 5 which Is ^ne
of Brubecks most popular pieces.

Recently, th0 Student Senate sent a letter of sympathy to Mrs. Kennedy upon the death of
her husband. The letter read as follows: On the behalf of all the students of State University
Agricultural and Technical Institute at Farmingdale we would like to express our deepest sym-pathy
to you and your family with these four masses to be said in honor of the late President
Kennedy.
Sometime later, the Senate received the response which is printed above. The response
will be kept by the Senate as a reminder of the great loss America suffered on November 22,
1963 when the late President was assassinated.
