l THE GLEE CLUB The Glee Club, during 1939 and 1940, had one of its most successful seasons. Members of the Glee Club broadcasted over one of our local stations several times and won very favorable comment from the listening audience. Many members of the senior class have been faithful members of the Glee Club for four years. Seniors who have given extraordinary performances in the concerts presented by this club are Elvira DiSisto, Paul Barselou and Dora Derocher. This year the Glee Club will give its annual spring concert sometime in May. In addition the Glee Club will be heard in a concert at the Institute of History and Art in Albany. The senior class wishes the members much success in these presenta- tions and in those of future years. Forty-three Chev e e time e eeee 43
