l-lCDl3lilXl lVllilVlCDklfXl. QRGAN During moonlit evenings of last September, vibrant tones from Stetson Chapel proclaimed to passers-by that a campus dream had come true. The Hoberi Memorial Organ was being installed. Since 1932, when the Chapel was completed, College friends had wished tor an organ. Very shortly after the death of the late President Allan l-loben, it was suggested that a fund be started for an organ as a memorial to him. On Sep- tember 28, l936, seventeen months after this sugges- tion had been rnade, an audience listened spellbound while lvlr. l-lenry Overley played the dedicatory program on the keys. Slight as may have been the acquaintance of many ot us with Dr. l-loben, our glorying in musical master- pieces, as interpreted by local artists, has made us at least momentarily akin to his spirit. joys unending will enrapture the campus as long as these keys are alive with beauty.
