Mixed Chorus I Hear America Sizzgingln Yes, our Mixed Chorus is a cross section of America and they sang this song at the Kansas Federation of Women's Clubs, held at the Civic Auditorium. This is only one of the many colorful occasions of the year featuring our senior high Mixed Chorus under the direction of Miss Hopkins. Devoted to music and thrilling to its various moods, these true music lovers made their appearance, singing beautiful Christmas carols at the Annual Christmas Pageant, but the greatest honor be- stowed on the chorus was their help in the presentation of the Messiah at the College of Emporia.
