Strains of Peter Gunn drift from the Wood Hall as the newly formed pep band rehearses tor athletic events. VlUSIC FILLS THE AIR . . . The University Chorus, a 90-voice group of students who like to sing, helped establish a Cal Western musical reputation. Under the direction of Dr. Robert A. Emile, they were well received whenever they appeared. The Chamber Singers, a select group of 14 women and IO men, ably per- formed at school functions and off- campus as well. Highlight of their year was an li-day winter tour of Southern California and Arizona in early Febru- ary. Wearing new University blazers, they sang numerous concerts in church- es, high schools, and junior colleges. A new addition to Cal Western was the band under the direction of Prof. Louis Lanyon. They performed at foot- ball and basketball games and the Spring Sing, capturing the attention of all in hearing distance with their toe- tapping marches, iazz beats, and show tunes. Music of Christmas was the appro- priate theme of the Departments Win- ter Concert with the Choir, Chamber Singers, and Band all participating. Music ranged from 17th century to con- temporary works. The Spring Sing concert again com- bined the units, and the highlight of that program was the Ballad of the North and South, a Civil War tale ex- pertly rendered.
