t l erlst 7110 h The girlst trio has done remarkable work in connection with the Glee Club. Their solo work has been excellent also. The following girls, Virginia Oak, soprano; Margaret Donaghy, first alto, and Marjorie Grraflus, second alto, were selected for the trio not only because of their good tone quality but also because of their knowledge of the technique of music. The voices of these girls blend very well and with more individual training next year better results are expected. They are now working on the selection nSweet Mystery of Life, to be rendered at the first High School Commencement Exercises in June of this year. F? H jllSZSH NILE ThirtyrFour
