Buddy Rich, often considered the great¬ est drummer of them all, appeared in Great Bend February 29 and rocked the town with some of the best jazz music that the community had ever heard. Playing before a crowd of nearly 1500 students, children, and local citizens, he helped raise funds for the college and in the process awakened many people to the beauty of jazz. Inhibitions were partially forgotten as the drummer and his thirteen member orchestra carried even the most conservative listener away with the music. People swayed in their seats, tapped their feet, clapped their hands and proved that big bands were not a thing of the past.
