At the beginning of the semester the Boys' Glee Club and the Girls' Glee Club were separate organizations, but later the two went together, making one strong organization. A result of work done by this group was shown in the Windmills of Holland, an operetta which was presented in the Auditorium December 16.

The long-looked-for day come and now we have an orchestra of which we are justly proud.
