A CAPPELLA CHOIR The A Cappella Choir, formed last fall from thirty-eight select students, has matured into a group of choral singers which has given over twenty performances since its organization. Musical numbers studied include the works of Bach, Palestrina, Tschai- kowsky, and Dett. Various trios, quartets, duets, and other ensembles have been formed, and piano and vocal soloists have contributed to the programs. This semester the choir performed for the Elks, American Legion, Eastern Star, East Bay Peace Officers, Professional and Business Women’s Club, high school assemblies, and Longfellow and Roosevelt Junior High School noon concerts. The climax of a very successful season was the Spring Concert, presented May 21, in the High School Auditorium and the final performance at Commencement. The following special groups are composed of choir members: Boy’s Quartet: Ben Howden, Allen Coe, Paul Harlow, Ed Spaulding. Girl’s Trio: Katherine Kuivala, Thelma Walsh, Evelyn Tobiason. Women’s Ensemble: Lena Benedetti, Truth Boughter, Jean Craig, Evelyn Grimes, Betty Kneeland, Katherine Kuivala, Thelma Walsh, Evelyn Tobiason, June Kneeland, Virginia Sill, Mary Shackelford, and Ruth Atwood.
