They appeared at a number of school functions as well as before several civic organizations, and entered the district music festival at KU. Two of the most important musical events of the year were the two music clinics held with Ottawa and At- chison. ln these clinics the schools combined groups for a very effective night concert. This year, the entire vo- cal music department, supplemented by the orchestra and the Serenaders, took the trip to Ottawa where they presented an assembly program followed by an afternoon preparation for the combined evening concert. Atchison sent a sizeable group here to which Lawrence played the host. Girls' Sexfeffe: Pat Coffman, Barbara Beers, Betty Larson, Gay Houk Betty Lou Watson, Chaxlsia Von Gunton.
