Miss Anne Gemmell. They have as concert dress, navy blue skirts and white sweaters with lyric emblems. The girls formed the chorus of the Gilbert and Sullivan Operetta “H.M.S. Thnafore” which was presented March 28. Also they entertained at the Naval Hospital in Park View where they were accorded quite a welcome. The members of the club are a very congenial group of girls and they have lots of fun. They plan to add many new voices to their club next year and also hope to have a boys’ club as well as a mixed group.
