Sponsor HE Euterpean Glee Club, as the name signifies. is a musical organization, the purpose of which is to afford an opportunity for cultivating the musical abilities of new students, particularly Freshmen. The group meets every Tuesday afternoon for an hour's training under the direction of Miss Williams. This year the club has included about forty members and has been unusually well-balanced. having had enough second sopranos and altos to counter-balance the first sopranos for their three-part work. The week before Christmas the Cwlee Club took part in a Christmas program in which they sang carols and songs. Margaret Sorenson, a soprano member of the Club. sang the solo parts. She also took the solo parts in the Christmas play, O Little Town of Bethlehem. The other members took the parts of the angels and maidens at the well. They also participated in the choruses. singing Peace and Good Will by Anna Priscilla Risher. For a women students' assembly, the Glee Club sang Abou Ben Adhem by Hosmer, and Lure of the Gypsy Trail by Jones. All in all, the music of the Czlee Club has made a genuine contribution to the school activities of the year. Thirty lwo

Anyone interested in dramatics may try out in the fall for the Workshop, the junior organization, and when they have met successfully the requirements of the senior organization, they may be elected to the Mask and Dagger Club, which has a limited membership of forty. The club has had several inf.ormal parties. The Workshop initiation this year was a supper-dance at the Heinrich Hotel. and the formal initiation of new members to the Mask and Dagger Club was followed by a dancing party at the Rainbow Inn. A part of the club's work is to take charge of the stage and the stage properties. A few years ago a property and costume room was organized, and additions have been made to it each year. A complete inventory of all these properties was a part of the club's work this year. The members of the Workshop, directed by members of the senior club, have presented several one-act plays at the regular meetings of the club. 'AThe Last of the Lowries, The Trap, The Eligible Mr. Bangs, and Masks, are some of the plays given. Selected scenes from The Taming of the Shrew were first presented at a club meeting and later given at a College assembly. Thirtyfonr 1 xii: I i l.g ur A+ H, V' L ls.. 'Q 1 .

Treasurer EDNA JOHNSTON . . . Student Council Representative MISS NANCY CORA WILLIAMS ...... Sponsor HE Cecelian Glee Club is a musical organization composed of girls selected from the upper classes in College. A few of the girls have had special music training prior to entering College: others have been admitted from the Euter- pean Glee Club, the Freshman organization. This musical organization is valuable for many reasons. It is recreational and affords a great amount of pleasure to the members as well as to the listeners. It serves as a training school to fit the members to teach music much more capably in the school systems which they will enter, and it has often helped in preparing teachers who can capably direct glee clubs. The Cecelian Cilee Club meets every Thursday after school for practice. Under the capable direction of Miss Nancy Cora Wililiams much has been accomplished. Special numbers have been rendered at the morning assemblies. By request the Culee Club furnished the music for an evening program to which the parents of all the Parent-Teacher Associations of the city were invited: the Club sang Friendship by Harris, and The Weaver by Adams. A mixed chorus composed of members of the Cecelian Glee Club sang several numbers for the Masquerade Character Party. Special music for Commencement activities will furnish the climax of the work of the Cecelian Glee Club for the year. Thirty-three 5 M32 1 561 Mfr- 1 1't-ifliz J, .eg '. IIT? ,A fbi. .. I P v. .
