Famous Troupe And Well-Known Speaker Appear Internationally famous Silvertones, Gladyse Kinchen, pianistg Garfield Henry, tenorg Marie Young, sopranog and Herman Hermmitt, baritoneg appeared here for the sixth time. St. Bede students and faculty were ex- tremely fortunate on Febmary 16th to hear the internationally famous musical group, Silver- tones, give their rendition of many favorite songs. This troupe, under the direction of Mr. Garfield Henry, has appeared here many times previously. This year's program consisted of much variety for it ranged from heavy classical music by Mozart, Schubert and Strauss to spirituals and modern excerpts from Broadway musicals such as Porgy and Bess. Many of these songs are Mr. Henry's own arrangements while the rest were from the original composers. On February 2, the student body of St. Bede were highly honored by a talk given by the Rev. Placid Jordan, O.S.B., a Benedictine monk from Beuron Abbey in Germany. Father Placid, before being converted and ordained, was a famous news commentator and analyst for NBC under the name of Max jordan. Even now Father Placid has knowledge of world affairs that would match many men associated with this field. Father Placid's speech dwelt on the basic problems of the world today, over population and Communism. He explained to the students their responsibility to set an example of what the United States and freedom really was. 23
