In January, the Glee Club combined with the Colorado Springs School for Girls in a joint Concert- ar Dinner-Dance, which consisted of separate and group selections by the Glee Clubs. The dance was held in Mr. Froelicher's home, where the Bob Capelli Orchestra provided the music. for the Colorado Christian Home for Orphaned Children. This program provided the opportunity for individual members to perform solos, both instrumental and vocal. This same type of program was presented for the Samaritan Home for the Aged. hr Also during the winter trimester, the Glee Club presented a concert Considering the many performances given throughout the year, the Glee Club proved itself a resounding success. This group, conceived entirely by Mr. Woods, was to be a quartet doing both barbershop and madrigal numbers, but after an auditioning, it turned into a double quartet. In the early stages the group performed only barbershop num- bers, their first two concerts being in this idiom. The first concert was given at the Samaritan Old Folks Home but proved to be untimely due to a death in the home prior to the performance. When the school heard them on one of Harry's Nights, however, their spirits and their performance level were very high. Soon after this concert, the group began to sing madrigal numbers, round- ing out their program with both types of music. Featuring such songs as While Strolling Through the Park One Day, and Amo, Amas, the group re- vealed a wide range of voices as well as ' if Ti a wide range of sizes, and so, outfitted . in their red vests, the Catchers in the Left to Right: s.

K are H ,sf K as 'ia This year the students and their parents along with the faculty set forth on the annual river trip down the Yampa and Green rivers. The large pontoons were supplied and driven by the Hatch River Expedition Company and the smaller rafts were handled by the capable Colorado Academy River Rats. The tremendous scenery was admired by all and aside from the occasional rock rolling was apprec- iated as well. As usual, the river had changed With the erosion of the tremendous cliffs along side of it, especially at Jones' Hole where this part of the river had been destroyed by landslide. This area was said to have been the best 'fishing anywhere in Utah and the fisher- men were greatly disappointed to lose this spot as well as the beauty of the locale. However, it did not hinder the enjoyment of the trip, and all are looking forward to next year's excursion. 1 , :,: f VZ.,:..,, H ' I, .P . i sqm X .fm--. . 1 . lg was , ..-,p Q - , L,,k 1 ig, My .Mt , l.-is f .,,, M we , M Z as , we Q, fs!
