, Man listens to the music in nature, the music of water and wind, of beast and bird, and he MM yearns to be musical, too. Out of this yearning have come beautiful voices and new ways of pro- ducing musical sounds.

The Senior Girls' Choir, under the direction of Mrs. Andersen, not only sang at many Airport assemblies, but traveled to other places to spread the musical word. Needless to say, the girls were always happy to sing and happily heard. The Boys' Glee, directed by Miss Waldorf, presented a delightful series of gay Nineties songs at the Talent Show, string ties, polka dotted Sweetheart, and all. Dr. Christensen, pictured with the Stringed Instruments group, finds his charges eager to master the mysteries of bass and treble, piano and forte. 27 J
