THE BLUE MOON 67 GLEE CLUB ELIZABETH WOOD, '32 President T HAYER HUNTER, '32 Vice-president AMY RUNO, '33 Secretary-treasurer DEBORAH LOWELL, '34 Librarian ELIZABETH CHASE, '34 Assistant-librarian MISS WEEKS Director THIS year the Glee Club boasts the largest membership in the history of the school. The club's first appearance was in the Thanksgiving pro- gram: and in the Christmas pageant, members made up the choir. On December 15, the Cilee Club had the privilege of hearing that thrilling and inspirational chorus, the Don Cossacks, and it was with renewed determina- tion that the girls started in January diligent practice for the concert on April 16. As usual, this important annual affair was a financial, social, and artistic success. The dance was unusually lively, with Ed Drew and his orchestra from Providence providing the best of music. Another high-light of the year was the Deerfield Glee Club Concert, in which the Bancroft club sang several numbers. The girls are anticipating the final party, for which great plans are on foot. The last pleasurable duties of the 1932 Glee Club will be to sing on Award Day and at Commencement. ELIZABETH WOOD THE CHRISTMAS PAGEANT THE soft melody of Silent Night, sung by the Cilee Club from the balcony, was followed by Lo, How a Rose, as a prelude to the annual Christmas pageant on December eighteenth. Then forward into the dimly lighted auditorium, singing carols as they came, filed the long, vari-colored procession of ladies, knights, crusaders, monks, nuns, and peasants, who formed the congregation at a medieval English service. The child-like voices of the I,ower School blended with those of the older girls. The choir, clad in red vestments with white lace cottas, followed the cruciier and incense-bearer to the platform, and took their places in choir stalls on either side of the candle- lit altar. Above the altar was a living representation from Rossellino's sculpture, The Nativity. The priest read the story of the Nativity from the pulpit, with continual responses from the choir and the congregation, and the three kings, chanting a French carol, came forward to lay their gifts on the altar steps. The Madonna in the tableau came to life, and sang a lullaby to her sleeping babe. As the choir-boys marched from their stalls and down the aisle. leading out the caroling congregation, the curtain closed upon another beautiful and impressive pageant, ELIZABETH WooD
