This year it presented a Vesper Concert on October 27, the Christmas Concert, and has plans to tour several neighboring schools March 18. The Musical Festival in Mobridge April 18 is on schedule besides the Spring Concert April 15, and the chorus is hard at work on such numbers as Donkey Serenade, Dark Water, and t'Flow Gently, Sweet Afton. Mrs. Greeves directed the chorus until the fall of 1945 when Miss Costain led for a semester. Miss Dell took up the reins the second semester and directed the organization to a superior rating at the 1946 Contest. This year, all music groups are under Mr. Urban's direction. ' 28
