However, after being an active organization for some time, the interest began to lag and for the past few years there hasn t been a great deal done in the way of drama¬ tics. Nevertheless, this year the officers have tried to encourage and interest the students by putting on a full length three act play. These officers have worked hard to make the Dramatics Club one of the more active organizations on the campus this year. t First Row: Roberts, Hart. H. Jones, Schnihhens. Wingard. « » Second Row: K.

NEWBERRY COLLEGE ers I lie Newberry College singers were organized in the fall of I lie 1Q30-31 session by the present director, Paul Ensrud. Each year of its existence, the chorus lias undertaken concert tours. 1 hese tours nave taken the singers through all of the eastern seaboard states from Florida to New York. The organization has been selected to sing before the South Carolina Federation of M usic Clubs Conventions; the convention of the Southern Con¬ ference of Music Educators; the National Convention of the Federated Music Clubs of America; and two conventions of the United Lutheran Church in America. Last fall the singers went to Balt imore to participate in the National Lutheran College Music Festival, which was directed by Mr. Ensrud. The chorus sings both secular and sacred music, all done with¬ out accompaniment. Gown ed in scarlet and grey, the school colors, they have drawn many favorable comments for their ap¬ pearance, as well as for th eir musical performance. A number of choral compositions have been especially written for the singers and dedicated to them. The organization is on a self-supporting basis, but many sub¬ stantial gifts have been given to the group to further its work. At the time of their appearance at the Federated Music C lub Biennial at Philadelphia, the expenses of the tour were largely met by voluntary contributions from the various music clubs ol the State, and from some clubs in Georgia and in North Garolina. The members of this chorus have had to work hard and have sacrificed much in order to reach the high ideals held before them. They mean, and have meant, a great deal for the College.
