Eric Tangalos, Cathy Berland, and George Humphreys dance to the music of “Goldfinger presented at the Clark orchestra concert. An ‘‘Art Song” is sung by the Girls’ Choir. The song is sung in five parts and captured the sounds and moods of the break of day. The Band, Orchestra, and Vo¬ cal Music Departments worked hard as individual groups and as a unit to provide their audiences with enjoyable concerts of con¬ temporary and classical music. The band played its customary Winter and Spring Concerts. Both were well attended and featured the talented individual players as well as the band as a whole. On April 26 the Indiana State Band was presented in an effort to aid the uniform fund.

Part of their success was due to skillfully staged num¬ bers by Miss Jeani Knapp. 15
