WE'll REMEMBER ALWAYS - GRADUATION DAY by Neil and Sara Lou Lantz
Brian Eichenberger Lead Voice Volume 22, No.3 July, August, September 2008 Curtis Calderon Vince Johnson 2nd Voice Baritone Voice "WE'LL REMEMBER ALWAYS - GRADUATION DAY By Neil and Sara Lou Lantz On a beautiful Spring day in Indianpolis, Ross and Bob became Dr. Ross Barbour and Dr. Bob Flanigan at the Commencement ceremony of Butler University on May 10, 2008. It was, indeed, a grand event as Butler President Bobby Fong and the Butler University Board of Trustees presented Bob Ferreira Ross and Bob with honorary Doctor of Arts degrees in the presence of 9,000 Bass Voice friends and families of the nearly 900 graduates. President Fong acknowledged Bob, Ross, the late Don Barbour and Hal Kratzsch, and the Freshmen beginnings at the beginnings at the Jordan Conservatory of Butler University where the guys were music majors in 1948. He went on to express Butler's appreciation for the group's acknowledgement of their roots in their performance travels throughout the world. Along with Bob and Ross, the only other recipient of an honorary degree at Butler in 2008 was Dr. Susan Solomon, a world leader in the field of atmospheric science and co-recipient of the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize with former Vice President Al Gore. Obviously, Ross and Bob were in distinguished company on this wonderful occasion! The weekend began with a private dinner Friday evening at the beautiful home of President and Mrs. Fong. In attendance were Bob and Mary Flanigan, Ross and Sue Barbour, FFS President Dick Baldwin and wife Carolyn, David Bentley, Bob Davis, Joyce Sommers, Greg and Nancy Lewis, and Neil and Sara Lou Lantz.

The Four Freshmen...ON the ROAD!
Volume 22, No.4 October, November, December 2008 Brian Eichenberger "AND SO IT'S OVER" Lead Voice Borrowing on that great closer of the Freshmen, the curtain came down on the 60th anni- versary celebration in Indianapolis on August 23rd. Closing on the 21st edition of the Four Freshmen Society's annual get-together was indeed a bittersweet moment for the conven- tion planning committee which had worked for the past two and a half years to organize the event, attended by nearly 600 "guests" from 36 states and nine countries. On behalf of the planning committee, we hope everyone in attendance had a great experi- ence, and we're sorry for those of you who couldn't be here. From all reports, the hotel accomodations, the food, the 113 Club (music mart, silent auction, FF gallery, etc), the tour, the overflow Wannabee sessions, Fresh Talk, and especially the music did not disappoint. For all of that and the new and renewed friendships of the legions of Freshmen fans, we are most thankful. Curtis Calderon And, of course who will ever forget the presence and performances of Freshmen Bob Flani- 2nd Voice gan, Ross Barbour, Bob Ferreira, Brian Eichenberger, Vince Johnson, Curtis Calderon, Ray Brown, Rod Henley, Kirk Marcy, and Greg Stegeman. Mrs. Don Barbour also joined in the anniversary festivities. In the event that anyone missed the opportunity to purchase some of the extra registration "goodies", we have a few of each of the following for sale. Commemorative poster (14" x 20") $5 each or 3 for $10 plus $3 shipping CD Holder $5 each plus $3 shipping Commemorative Logo Lapel Pin $10 each plus $2 shipping COMBINATION OF ABOVE PRODUCT TOTAL PLUS $5 SHIPPING All proceeds, of course, will go to the Four Freshmen Society.

Sammy Cahn and the Enactment of Request
ROMANCING THE VERNACULAR: SAMMY CAHN AND THE ENACTMENT OF REQUEST by MARILYN JUNE HOLLOWAY submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF LITERATURE AND PHILOSOPHY in the subject ENGLISH at the UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AFRICA SUPERVISOR: PROFESSOR I A RABINOWITZ APRIL 2016 i SUMMARY The lyrics of Sammy Cahn played a dominant role in shaping the Golden Age of American light music. He remains the most successful lyricist in cinema history, in terms of Academy Awards and Nominations, yet he has received little acclaim for his achievements. This thesis explores the diverse constituents of his creative genius, focusing on his ability to “romance the vernacular”, and write “bespoke” material on request. The argument follows a chronological path, tracing the major influences on Cahn’s life: vaudeville and musical theatre, the growth of the film industry, and the collaborators and performers who helped him achieve a level of mastery that he sustained for nearly fifty years. Particular emphasis is placed on his relationship with Frank Sinatra, on both a personal and professional level. Cahn had an acute awareness of the human condition and his ability to convey a range of emotions to match mood and moment displayed consummate craft and intellect, with a self-confidence that bordered on bravado. His contemporaries in the Golden Age of popular song have received due recognition, yet little has been written about Cahn, whose appreciation of the interaction between spontaneity and creativity remains unsurpassed by fellow lyricists. He had an intuitive understanding of the vernacular and an instinctive ability to write to order.
