And The nighT shall be filled wiTh music, and The cares ThaT infesT The clay, Shall fold Their TenTs, like The Arabs, and as silenle sTeal away. -HENRY W. LONGFELLOW And who shall fill The nighT wiTh music more graciously, more beauTifully, more willingly Than our own Ed Gerlach? WiTh much planning and Thought we dedicaTe This, The 1955 HOUSTONIAN, To The man who has dedicaTed himself To The Univer- siTy of HousTon . . . There are many great men wiTh TalenT. Some have many Tal- ents, but few share Them wiTh as many people in personal conTacT as does Ed Ger- lach wiTh The sTudenTs on This campus. We have called on him for pep rallies, dances, shows . . . He is always There, someTimes on an hour's noTice. He is re- sponsible for our school having one of The very Top college bands in The naTion. Be- fore coming To The UniversiTy he arranged many hiT recordings for Top name bands. Numerous Top enTerTainers have sTudied under Ed. When The words Ed Gerlach and His OrchesTra appear on a posTer adverTising a dance you can be sure iT will be a suc- cess. There is one Trait abouT This man ThaT sTands ouT above all oThers, The personal friendship he exTends To every sTudenT on campus! Thank you, ED GERLACH-Thank you! The 1955 HousTonian STafTc
