Music in the Air Bob Birgam The Junior College chorus worked some, sang a lot and earned a worthy place in juco activities this year. The group formed the nucleus of the Messiah chorus which sang in December. Several members of the group took leading roles in the 'Mikado the operetta presented by the high school and college music departments in March. Captola Shelhamer and Margaret Seal made lovely Japanese maid- ens. Laurence Crooner Swaim was in his element as a wandering minstrel. William Post, as the pompous Mikado revealed a fine baritone voice. Al- bert Lambert and Logan McCabe furnished much comedy as small town officials. Evelyn Caine as the unattractive unwanted maiden of ripe age added a mixture of mirth and sympathy to the show. The Junior College boys quartet was a busy organization this year. They were in constant demand. It is said that they preferred, however, to take banquet engagements! Laurence Swaim sang first tenor, Albert Lam- bert, second tenor, Craig Howes, baritone, and Wayne Thomas, bass, Will- iam Gutherie accompanied them. In the spring the chorus sang at the piano festival, in the Easter Chapel and for the Tigerama, the junior college party given for the seniors. PAGE 30

This year the club ordered quite a bit of new material and made new and stricter rules concerning attendance at 1'eg- ular meetings and games. Besides supporting the team by cheering, the club sponsors a concession stand at football and basketball games. Two freshmen, Miss Eva Lea Grey and John Shea, and a sophomore, David Holland, led the cheering at sports events. Robert VVilson was president of this years organization and Freda Hutto was secretary. Lois Akers acted as chairman of the concession com- mittee. As a large number of the pep club members arc freshmen the group looks forward to an even more active year in 1938-39. Tribute To School I shall never be able to thank her enough for the encouragement she gave and the time she spent to keep me from failing. I entered Junior College in 1937 and I havcn't rc- grctted a moment of it. I have always dreamed of being a great engineer,- a civil engineer- one who builds bridges, dams, and does other construction jobs. I shall have to face many hard knocks, but I hope that some day my dream will be realized. After all education is the foundatio-n of success. I have taken great interest in my school mark-and I hope to be a success. Page 29
