Because the Choir is a new organization at Davenport it is quite small. Although it is open to all students as an extra curric- ular activity, it consists of all girls at the present. It is hoped that in the future the men will take part also. Practice is held every Wednesday evening at Warren Hall. The Chair is under the direction of Daniel and Ruth Nicely, min- isters of music at the East Congregational Church in Grand Rapids.
