Dizzy Gillespie Neville to sing at Super Bowl XXIV Following what was probably his most successful year ever, Aaron Neville will begin the new decade with the honor of singing the National Anthem at Super Bowl XXIV on Sunday, Jan. 28, at the Superdome in his native New Orleans. Aaron and the entire Neville Brothers band are also scheduled to perform live on "Super Bowl Saturday Nite," a two-hour special airing nationally Jan. 27 on CBS from 9 to 11. The group's 1989 A&M release, "Yellow Moon," was widely considered their best recording to date, as was evidenced by its position on several "Best of '89" critical lists, and brought them long-overdue national and international recognition. That album spawned the single "Sister Rosa," a rap song telling the story of the first civil ri|hts activist, Rosa Parks, and the movement that followed. The Neville Brothers will begin recording (and co-producing with Malcolm Bum) their next A&M album March 1; the record is tentatively scheduled for a late summer release. And in light of his own personal success, Aaron Neville will be gearing up for a solo project for A&M shortly thereafter. When asked about singing the national anthem, Aaron replied, "We were hoping the Saints would be there, but I'm ready. At least 1 know all the words." jded tours of NCSA campus offered by volunteer tour guides iiA tours of the North Car- ilool of the Arts are avail- iilcrested adults.

Mr. H called for the following: lirm postage rates be estab- itgardless of distance, that to pay the postage in !ind that an adhesive stamp 111 indicate payment and that 6be required. iof Mr. Rowland's sugges- adopted, and in 1840, the first postage stamp was issued by the British Post Office. As the British postal system was developing, methods of communicat ing in the American colonies were taking shape. The first official postal system was established in 1639 in Boston, when the Massachusetts Bay Colony gave Richard Fairbanks the right to process mail between the American colonies and England. By 1683 a postal route was established between the colonies from Maine to Georgia. The service was slow and uncertain. Then in 1692, King William III of England gave Thomas Neale the sole right to provide postal services in the American colonies, and Neale’s deputy, Andrew Hamilton, created the first national postal sys tem. As the British were accustomed to doing, they took control of Neale's system in 1707 and increased the rates. The colonists opposed this action by avoiding this system as much as possible. When the Revolu tionary War began in 1775, Ben jamin Franklin was named Postmas ter General of the United States by the Continental Congress. As you know, independence was won in 1783. In 1789, Congress gave the fed eral government the sole power to provide postal services and named Samuel Osgood the first Postmaster General under the new Constitution. Congress issued the first postage stamps in 1847 and required the use of stamps in 1855.
