From a field of ten candidates Ruby Hada, representing Band, was elected. Shown in Glenn Hundley's cover photograph is Queen Ruby and the Band float, which won in its division of the competition. Saga is published once each semester by the Associated Student Body of Long Beach City College, Liberal Arts Division, 4901 East Carson Street, Long Beach 8, California. 1.1 HOMECOMING PRINCESSES crowd around to congratulate Queen Ruby Hada at the coronation during the Homecoming variety show. F all Semester, 1961-62 By Del Daniel Students came from everywhere and -by practically every means of transportation to enroll at Long Beach City College for the fall semester 1961 and thus kickoff another semester of outstanding achievement and activities. Before September was over, rushing was underway, clubs had started on their long lists of projects, the football team was off to a flying start, and the Student Body Cabinet, led by ASB President Dick Murray, had made plans for a full semester. As has been the case for a number of years, music again played a big part on the Carson Street campus. On Oct. 6 the famed Gateway Singers visited the college to open another highly successful season of the popular Evenings at Eight' series. The unusual group of singers from the San Fran- cisco area immediately won the whole-hearted approval of City College students with their folk songs and ballads. An added attraction to their presentation was the appear- ance of the Pete Jolly Trio, a jazz recording group from Metro- jazz Records. A more frequent sound to the ears of the students was the music produced by members of the Viking Marching Band. Under the direction of Richard jones, the band performed at lll -t HIGH FASHION. LBCC co-ecl models for snack-time fashion show for girls only in the sludenl' lounge. EALL SEMESTER continued all rallies and football games in addition to concerts and parades, Made up of more than 100 marching members, the 1961 band was among the greatest in LBCC history and the finest in California. - Agnes Moorehead, popular entertainer, visited the college on Oct. 15 and gave a performance entitled That Fabulous Redhead that many students will remember for years to Come. Forums again played a big Part in the cultural and academic life of students. A host of outstanding speakers appeared in the campus auditorium-one on every other week-to discuss a topic of interest to the LBCC student body. Some of the topics discussed included The Battle of Berlin by Dr. Adolf Stoneg Life Behind the Iron and Bamboo Curtains by Dru Rodger Swearingeng U.S. Propaganda Tactics Abroad by Dr. Totten J. Anderson and The Webster Quimmley Society vs. the john Birchersn by Dixon Gayer. The Forums were very interesting and an average of about 400 attended each one. Homecoming came to the campus in November and a week of colorful activities took place.

BIG JOKE! Ole dazzles pepsters at football games with his iokes. Why Ole, are you blushing? E ALL SEMESTER continued was chosen Homecoming Queen to reign over the events, which included float building, International Clothes Day, a special dance and rally, and the Homecoming football game against Bakersfield College. The Drama Department was kept busy during the semester in presenting two outstanding plays. The first one was The Skin of Our Teeth, written by Thornton Wilder. The other was The Late Christopher Beanj' written by Sidney Howard. Both plays drew standing-room-only crowds. AMS and AWS were not idle during the fall for they sponsored a variety of events ranging from a surfing film to co-ed snacktimes. jubilee Night, the biggest fun night of the year, was sponsored 'by the ASB Cabinet and presented in the middle of the semester. The Firehouse Five Plus Two were the featured entertainers of the evening. Sports, always a big thing on the LBCC campus, again enjoyed a highly successful year. In football the Vikings finished with a 7-2 record that was good enough for third place in the tough Metro Conference. Amazing Dee Andrews, All-American halfback, completed his junior college career by smashing almost every record -in LBCC books. He gained more ground, scored more points, averaged more yards, and delighted more people than any other player in local history. But another team was having a great year, too. The water polo team, coached by Monte Nitzkowski, finished second in the State. Their final game of the season produced the only loss against junior college competition the poloists had suffered in over six years. While all of the activities and events on campus took place, it was up to someone to report them to the student body. The task fell to the All-American VIKING newspaper, headed by editor-in-chief Del Daniel. Something special was added to the paper during the semester when it was enlarged to a bi-weekly paper with six pages-full of pictures covering every phase of campus life. The climax to-the semester came in January when the long list of college banquets took place and awards were given to outstanding students in many areas of school life. But things didn't end at that point. Already students were thinking ahead to the Spring Semester and hoping that it would be as fun and successful as the 1961 Fall Semester had been. l3l Q-4 ...pm4p.-,We ,- INTERNATIONAL CLOTHES DAY saw the candidates for Daniels, Michele Kilpatrick, Rita Lynch, Mynet Marks, Homecoming Queen getting right in the spirit of things.

From October 20 to November 3 all campus extra-curricular attention was turned to LBCC's 54th annual Homecoming. Events got underway with the announcement of ten candidates for Homecoming Queen. Women's social clubs and co-educational organizations of 25 or more members were sponsors of the candi- dates. One week later International Clothes Day took place, with prizes being awarded to clubs and individuals best carrying out the theme Ole Goes International. Sweepstakes winner in the Clothes Day competition was Ramayana. TNT and Tammuz tied for first place in the Women's Club Division, and Tong won in the Men's Club Division .'.' Election of the Homecoming Queen was held on October 51, and Queen Ruby Hada was crowned at the Homecoming Variety Show on November 1. LBCC talent was featured in the show, which was held in the campus auditorium. Thursday, November 2, was a day of intense preparations for the Vikings-preparations for a night-long float building project by campus organizations. Early in the evening a rally dance was held in the quad and cafeteria, followed by the all-night effort to com- plete the floats for judging before Fridays Homecoming Rally. When dawn broke over the campus on Friday, some 400 club members and independents could still be seen applying the finishing touches to their labors, but at 10:30 judging took place. Prizes went to Mahabharata, TNT, Tong, and Band. Tickets for the Homecoming game with Bakersfield were sold-out a week before the game, and a crowd of over 16,000 WHS on hand at kick-off time. Boasting a tremendous defensive line, Bakersfield halted LBCC,s mighty offense, got their own offenSC into gear, and went on to win the game 20-O. F And still Homecoming went on. Following the game a dance was held in the Womens gym for students, and a post-game get together was held for alumni, replacing their customary pre-game dinner. HOMECOMING VARIETY SHOW acts included soloists, groups, and the College Choir. OLE AT THE UNITED NATIONS was the theme of Tong's Men Division prize winner.

They have been making plans and looking forward to their productions for next semester. Among the things scheduled for the Spring semester will be a concert in january and another concert later in the year, featuring a student soloist. The latter is being considered for an annual event in the music department. One of their high-points of the semester was the orchestration in the Christmas program, with the orchestra joining with the Schola Cantorum and College Choir in presenting Johann Sebastian Bach's The Magnificatf' Director Gaylord H. Browne is also looking forward to the time when the orchestra can join forces with the rest of the music department, the art department, and the drama department in the presentation of operas and light operas as joint-departmental programs. Members of Orchestra are shown during a practice session. tv- - .'.'.

'f9Ff'P3i'7 ' Band The LBCC Band is one of the largest performing groups of its kind. It is divided up into squads of four, and maneuvers are centered around these small, mobile groups. Squads are in competition with each other, and are honored from week to week for their work. The band boasts nearly perfect large band instrumentation, and this is the reason for the well balanced sound they produce. This year the band has featured two distinct styles of marching. One is the stately, bold, powerful style that is the true tradition of the ancient Vikings. The other is the typical fast cadence of modern day show bands. The band actually is more than just a musical performing organization. It is a center of social activities, intramural athletics, and a chance for fur- thering musical knowledge and abilities. Spirit and enthusiasm are by-words of the band, and each member perfqrmed af all fogfbqll games realizes his responsibility to the school, the show, and himself and an intense feeling of pride for their accomplishments. This is indicated by the motto of the band: Spirit, Drive, and Determination. Their chief work this semester has been on Bach s Magnificent ln- 1, nie' ., ...JW 1 CHOIR MEMBERS are, from left, Row one: lwamae, Kelly, Wright, Fuqua, Kubli, Durham, Nicholson, Allen, Underwood, Allison, Cohen, Cavanaugh, Chrysafides, Hannon, Kent.

HEVENINGS AT EIGHT The Gateway Singers, Agnes Moorehead, the Pete Jolly Trio, and a presentation of Christopher Fry's A Phoenix Too Frequentv comprised this semesters offering in the i'Evenings at Eightn series. Featured in the first presentation were the Gateway Singers, famed folk singers from the San Francisco area, who appeared in a repeat performance. The singers also appeared in the first Eve- nings at Eight series several years ago. The blend which the Gateway Singers display, which enchants and intrigues their audiences, is not solely a vocal one, There are four completely different individuals with widely varying back- grounds, each an accomplished solo performer, who integrate their talents with verve and gusto. The Pete jolly Trio, jazz recording artists, also appeared as an added attraction with the Gateway Singers. U61 Agnes Moorehead was featured in the second presenrariOH- Her performance, titled That Fabulous Redhead, was an exhilarat- ing demonstration of what the theater can communicate and an audience delight in. Her performance had the simplicity of so many magHifiCCUf things, all art, all seemingly artless. Her entire presentation W21S linked and jeweled with personal reminiscences, comments, and whiplashe asides and was animated with her mimicry and Wit. Also appearing that evening were Richard Gray and MZYO Loizeaux starring in Fry's one-act comedy A Phoenix Too Fre- quentf' Events scheduled for next semester include The Ballet RUSW de Monte Carlo, Ogden Nash, a major stage play by the City College Theater Arts Department, folk singers Sam Hinton, and the CKY College Festival of Music.

U83 ART s By Mary Cellar The Long Beach City College Art Department has tried something new this year 'by presenting three 'film forums showing the modern trends in animation, film showings of artists and their work, and experimental photography. They have also put on two art shows this semester and will put on three more by the end of next semester. The shows are sponsored by the day and evening students with the primary purpose of bringing to the students of LBCC something they would not normally see. The shows run for four weeks and the admission is free. A COLLECTEON OF MEXICAN ARCHITECTURE with a heritage of 4000 years was shown in January. There was a contrast in style ranging from the Mayan Classic period of 600 B.C. to the present 20th century. CAREFUL CONTRAST. Carol Vingart and Fred Heathcock in the Art Department are carefully checking colors for their next painting. The LBCC gallery is one of the oldest galleries in Long Beach. The Long Beach Museum and the gallery at L. B. State College in addition to ours are major galleries in our city. To avoid repetition from the other museums, the art depart- ment at LBCC tries to feature different shows. The first art show this semester was Two Centuries of Landscape Paintingwwhich attempted to show the changing trends in landscape painting in the 19-20th centuries. The paint- ings were gathered from the Pasadena Museum, the University of Southern California, and the Felix Landau Gallery. The second show was 4000 Years of Mexican Architecture since 1500-2000 B.C. It went through the Indian cultures, the Spanish Conquest, the period between the revolution for indepen- dence and to the present. Shows of sculpture and animation will be featured next semester, and the last will be a student art show with the paint- ings and art work of the art students of the LBCC campus. ll9l STUDENTS JAMMED THE AUDITORIUM to hear Dixon Gayer, assistant professor of iournalism at LBSC, speak on the Webster Quimmley Society, which he founded. The- Long Beach City College Student Fortun exists to obtain, publicize and present programs and speakers of outstanding note for the student body. During the Fall semester of 1961 they did just that. The Forum procured not only fine speakers for their twice monthly programs, but went to the additional labor of conducting polls in history and political science classes in order to determine what the members of the student body were interested in learning more about. The Forum presentations themselves were carried off smoothly by all concerned, and the lectures and question periods which followed proved to be both popular and educational. As the semester progressed, the attendance at the Wednesday morning programs became greater and greater, the finest tribute that could be rendered to the organizers and sponsors. The people responsible for the quality of the presentations are Ken Smith, president of the Forum, Steve Severy, moderator, Terry Bell, secretary, and Diane Barlow, treasurer. The sponsors of the Forum are Dr. R. A. Lundin and Dr. Donald H. Scott, instructors of history and political science.

Associated Student Body Cabinet given time and energy to his job and has cheerfully faced the many headaches of his position. Steve Bollenbach took on the job of Dick's right-hand-man, vice president. He also always knew the answer when parliamentary law got the best of the rest of the Cabinet. Barbara Deal furnished an accurate report of the meetings in her jo-b as ASB secretary and handled correspondences efficiently. School economy can get very complex, as Judy Cowles found out. Judy was ASB treasurer for the fall semester. Judy Bleasdale was kept 'busy with her position as representa- tive of arts. Among her many jo-bs was the handling of coffee sales for Cabinet, planning the Prom and Cabinet banquet, handling an Evenings at Eight reception for the Gateway Singers, and planning the first Jubilee Night. AMS President Jerry Dick took on as a special project pro- moting interest and activity among the mens' clubs on campus. AWS President Barbara Miller kept AWS running smoothly and acted as mistress of ceremonies for two Evenings at Eight programs. Mike Jewell had a big job as representative of student body, Rally Committee chairman, and Executive Council chairman. Jerry Shulte took great interest in his office of representative of athletics and promoted good will between the Athletics Department and the Cabinet. Enjoying a once-in-a-million semester of cooperation between the Cabinet and the Publications Department was Linda Gallagher, representative of publications.

THE ORD R B y Linda Gallagher Membership in the Order of Kassai is a goal of the majority of freshman women who are active in AWS projects. It is an honorary service organization and the oldest club on the Liberal Arts campus. Kassai's 55 members come from the most active girls in the AWS program. Each semester the members of this organization work together, giving outstanding service to the college. Fall 1961 has been no exception. The girls opened the semseter by helping throughout regis- tration week, Working alongside City College Faculty and Staff OF KASSAI ersonnel. Another of their f ro'ects was makin Christmas tra P Y favors for patients at Veterans' Hospital. This was accomplished through several work parties which proved to be enjoyable. Profit from coffee sales contributed to the Kassai scholarship fund and went toward financin several activities. 8 Adding fun to service were frequent intra-club activities. Among these were a jitney dinner, kidnap breakfast, and pickle sale.

LBCC'S PGET LAUREATE Greg Gregory, president of the LBCC literary society Skalds, was named Viking Poet Laureate for the school year and received the laurel crown at the semesterly publications banquet. The prize poem which won the honor for Gregory was Many Green Manhattan Summers Ago. A panel of judges of Skalds officers and English instructors made the selection. Many Green Manhattan Summers Ago Years and years ago when I was a boy, when there were bathroom-mice in Manhattan, and golden, gothic bells that played pigeons sang out Sunday mornings over Amsterdam street, when we ran and waged war in the fourteen story canyons against the ones who dwelt there, before the Edsel, before the atom bomb before Grant was anything more than Grant's tomb, where you could find pigeons, popcorn and puppydogs, and where in the Plaza San Marco loff Morningside Drivel you could watch the proud Venetians Ifrom Hobokenl hurry by, among the wise and ravenous birds, there used to be a wonderful river that was a Tiber and a Thames to a small boy in New York. On Saturday afternoons we could climb to a great grass-green hill that we never knew looked like the hills of Italy and there, as proud as Henry Hudson, we would watch the great tugs of the grey river baying soot and sea gulls and then, if we dared, land we didl we would roll down and down, so far, so incredibly fast that our spinning eight-year-old senses would submit to the painfully superb sensuality of being eight years old in New York and drunk with life. There we would lie on the summer grass and practice a spiritual photosynthesis of child sun and summer. Sometimes we would lie riverside still by the green hill and peer down through great, barred gates in the grass into fantastic caves that must have been built long ago before the motor car and the skyscraper, caves inhabited by Indians and almost certainly trolls caves built by giants that only the pigeons can remember long before the Pilgrims and the Dutch And there we would wait for the new masters of the cavern to come. 15 Did U, Answers Help You with The Te If, XN x X W 4 gl 34fn Doesn't See You 4 ,9- -M ,-f ',.L:Z+f,,z .,Q wk 'ivrfiw Y ' , ,,x.,- W , .x +4-.-,,,.i,, x I ' A 5 f.L 5, ' gkgjffirk' - ,uf , 'jg A111 ',,5j. , . , gi, 1 f -Nw :fu r- -if rx ' X- Fifi Y ., - MThev L 'WQQ CLUBS ,. ,,,,, V is i Q ' r HOMECOMING FALLOUT.

Breaking away is Dee Andrews, Viking of the Year, Metropolitan Conference Player of the Year, and re-writer of the school's football and track record books. Dee is the only athlete to win the Viking of the Year award for two sports, track and football, and for four times, both Spring and Fall semesters this year and last year. Records set by Dee in football include the season scoring record of 110 points, the two-year scoring record of 170 points, the season rushing average of 9.5 and a new game average of 142.5 yards, and a two season rushing total of 2,039 yards. At 163 pounds, Dee was also considered one of the best defensive backs in the conference and was named to both the offensive and defensive All Conference teams. Dee was also the backbone of the track squad, and is the holder of the school record in both the high and low hurdles and the broad iump. Away goes Dee . . . his two years at LBCC are through. But memories - and the record book - will remain for long. l53l l1unr,,,- wwf 2' A .W ,awww EAST LOS ANGELES VS.

Coming off a national championship season, this year's team set more individual and total team marks than l21Sf year, but still managed to finish no better than third in conference play. For while it was an overall highly successful SCZISOU for the Vikes under Jim Stangeland with a 7-2 record, it was also a case of too much Santa Monica and Bakersfield as the Gades Won the conference championship and 21 trip to the junior Rose Bowl. While there were no roses in '61, there was Dee Andrews, Dee made two all-America jaycee football tear1'1S, WHS first team all-conference on offense and defense plus being the player of the year. Other Vikes honored were Tom johnson, a first string all-conference defensive tackleg Willie Martin, halfbacki Denis Richman, endg and jim Murphy, guardg all received honorable mention all-conference. UP AND OVER goes fullback Jerry Orcult lwifh balll in game against Harbor which Norse- men won 42-6. Also on the play were Bill James l75l, Chris Dawson l'I8l, Denis Richman i80l, Johnny Cuccio l63l, and Dave Dorrans l67l. FOOTBALL, 1961 In a nutshell, it was a year in which an inexperienced line matured as the season went along, and when the explosive backfield were all healthy, the two elements com- bined to make for an interesting team. Everyone pointed for the Norsemen, and an indica- tion of things to come was the wild 44-30 opening game win over Cerritos, after LBCC had held a seemingly comfortable 38-12 lead after three quarters. Possibly their best showing of the year came the following week when before a packed house of 11,000 at Santa Ana Municipal Bowl the Vikes crushed eventual Eastern Conference co-champion Santa Ana, 33-8. Andrews broke open the game with touchdown runs of 67 and 96 yards, and the complete defensive unit com- bined to turn in sparkling performances. Opening of conference play saw a stubborn East Los Angeles team rally in the second half after being behind 22-0 to outplay LBCC in the last two quarters before losing 22-16. Traveling south to San Diego, the Vikings brought a dormant air attack to life behind the passing of Ed Reddick and Chris Dawson to shut out the Knights, 28-0. El Camino proved to be the Vike's toughest win of the '61 season before finally bowing, 29-22. The game ended with the Warriors on the LBCC one-yard line as time ran out. Dawson started his first game at quarterback and proceeded to set a one-game record of 265 yards passing with four TD passes as Gary West's 10-yard field goal in the second quarter turned out to be the winning difference. The Vikes routed Harbor 42-6 to run their mark to 6-0, and maybe it would have been better if the season had ended at that point as Bakesfield rolled into town the following week and ruined a homecoming sellout of 17,000 in posting a convincing 20-0 win. The score was only 8-0 at half, but two key Bakers- fieild interceptions late in the game wrapped it up for the Gades. A Showing a visible letdown the following week, LBCC ran into a good Santa Monica team and were beaten, 50-14. The Corsairs broke a 14-14 tie in the third quarter to win going away. What had been expected to be an anti-climax instead turned out to be a big going away party for Andrews 8: Co. in the last game against Valley as they rolled up a 58-6 win. Dee gained 262 yards rushing and scored four TD's for new school records. Assisting Stangeland were Rollie Eilerts and George Allen in the line, joe Lanning coached the ends, and Phil Krueger served as backfielcl coach. l55l 1 l 1.

The End of An Era An eta Came to an end when Fullerton defeated the Lo-ng Beach City College water polo team 7-5 in the finals of the Southern California championships at Cerritos. While finishing the season with a sparkling 17-5 record, it was that last loss that snapped an amazing 87-consecutive game winning streak against junior col- lege opposition and took the Southland championship away from LBCC for the first time in seven years. The only other two losses were against the powerful University of Southern Cali- 1601 fornia team that nipped the Vikes by scores of 7-6 and 15-10, Another dark' spot was an untimely auto accident that involved six starters who were returning from a decisive vic- tory over Long Beach State. Although their replacements turned in inspired efforts, the accident nevertheless ham- pered the teams chances in the cham- pionship playoffs. Top scorer Ken Smith and guard Dave Coon made first team All Southern Cali- fornia, and Norval Ballard and Sheldon Harmatz joined them on the all-Metro- politan Conference team. Smith connected on 59 per cent of his shots for 71 goals. Murdoch Fraser scored 28 and Coon 27 for runner-up honors. Since 1955, the Viking water poloists under coach Monte Nitzkowski have had a perfect 38-0 record in Metropolitan Conference competition and have g0r1G 88-1 against all jaycee opposition. Their record against four-year colleges and uni- versities is 25-13, while the seven-year mark against all opposition is 112 vic- tories against only 16 losses. ,Q W S W we is xx 45 V' Www-.

The Vikes, under the direction of coach Bob Hunt, got off to a slow start in which they had won only two of their first ten games. However, as SAGA,s deadline approached it appeared that the team had finally started clicking and perhaps it would soon be rolling along again. Hunt built his team's chances around a starting unit that included legzetmen Tim Sweeney, jim McCutchion, Mark Reichner, jim Erickson and jerry Dick. He also appeared to be counting much on newcomers Chuck Shane, Mike Wovodward and Bob Lowes. Highlights of the season so far for the casaba squad have been the 51-49 win over defending State IC team from Fullerton and the fruitful trip to San jose, where the team played its best games of the young season. According to Coach Hunt, the team has a good chance of defeating some of the powerhouses in the Metro Conference when the leagnie starts, and he is looking forward to another winning season, 1 1 ! i e Ss fff , -224 f, .

Even more important than this yeat's limited success, however, is the promise of an outstanding team next year. Nine of the squad's ten members are freshmen. Next year, with normal improvement and development, Coach Del Walker believes they will mature into one of the conferences real powers. Top runner of the season, Larry Suerdieck, was named the mos: valuable runner at the fall Sports Award Banquet. Ro-bin Fraser was named the most inspirational team member. Suerdieck was the first Viking to finish every race but one- the Mount San Antonio Invitational, in which Fraser took the honor. Suerdieck was also the first conference runner to break into the first five finishers against El Camino in regular dual meet competi- tion in the season. In that race he placed second overall, a truly great performance against the team that eventually captured the Metro crown and won the Southern California championship. Throughout the season, the other runners who displayed con- sistent talent and ability plus good steady performances were Dave Shinnerer and Phil Carey. Carey was unable to compete in early races due to an injured knee, but when finally ready for action produced some fine performances. Coach Walker hasn't had to enlarge the trophy case for this years squad, but he hopes to make such alterations necessary next year. With all that tfi-ne returning talent, it looks like a pretty good possibility that the carpenters will be working overtime.

Designed to meet the growing need for a coeducational recreational program, College Recreation Association, or CRA, has functioned at LBCC since 1955. Included in the activities of CRA are the Co-Recs, informal recreational evening activities which include volleyball, badminton, ping pong, checkers, chess, bridge, and dancing. The October Co-Rec drew a crowd of 500 and featured a Limbo contest and an apple- bobbin event. The second Co-Rec, held in December, featured a bridge tournament and a dance contest. In addition to the Co-Recs, members attended the Associated XY!omen Szudents-Women's Athletic Association conference and formed teams to compete against CRA teams from other schools. Attending the conference at Orange Coast College were CRA President Pat Starling, CRA board members Jerry Schulte, Steve l66l ening programs as over 500 Searson, Wally Tucker, and Terry Barkley, and Sponsors Mrs. Mari- lyn Tom and Mrs. Betty Crilley. The LBCC panel discussed the purpose of coeducational activities, methods of setting up a CRA program, CRA representation in student government, methods Of budget appropriation, and organization of such special activities as Co-Recs and banquets. CRA sports offered include badminton, tennis, swimming, volleyball, archery, and golf. Final major event of the semester for CRA was a banquet held at the Disneyland Hotel in January. CRA officers were Pat Starling, president, Terry Barkley, vice- presidentg Merriam Murphy, secretary, and Maggie McWilliamS, treasurer. OKAY, GANG, EVERYBODY OUT for the Limbo contest.

Schola Cantorum members rehearse their rendition of Bach's Magnificat, which was presented at the annual Christmas performance. SCHOLA CANT OR Schola Cantorum, under the direction of Wayne B. Gard, opened its 10th concert season in mid-December when the members presented a Christmas Concert with the College Choir. The concert was held in the Long Beach City College audito- rium and a packed house was on hand to witness the performance. The first half of the concert featured the Magnificat, one of the great oratories composed by Johann Sebastian Bach. The Feast of Lights, a service of Christian symbolism, was performed in the second half. Because this was the only presentation offered by the Schola Cantorum, many Long Beach residents and community members did not have the chance to become familiar with the group this semester.
