THE MALE QUARTETS HAT which S.P.C. is most proud of is their singing organizations, and of these the quartets are Without peer. Our Victory Boys are admittedly the best male quartet in the Northwest, so it is with a deal of pride that we review their brilliant record for the year past. With the assistance and able direction of Professor Warren, Dean of the School of Religion, they have been responsible for the Sunday morning radio programs. Their scheduled weekend services were so popular they were booked for many weeks in advance. To attest their recognized ability, they were called on to help open the Gypsy Smith campaign this spring. The inspiration and warmth of their singing is made possible only by their deep personal dedication to Christ and the furtherance of His Kingdom. The Clarion Quartet have also contributed their share toward the enviable singing record of the school, and they, too, have had a full schedule of Sunday engagements. During the fall quarter, they proved to be of invaluable help to Walker in his Thursday evening Student Radio Hours, and have taken part in many programs on the campus.

Besides presenting a number of concerts in nearby cities, the choir made two extended tours into different sections of the Northwest. In March they traveled through Eastern Vxhishington, giving nine concerts in five days. During the latter part of April, they sang in several cities in Oregon and Southwestern Vxfashington. The concert music has, to a great extent, been chosen and ordered to portray the life of Christ. Selections have been made from n broad Held of well known sacred classics and hymns of thc Church. A .marked spiritual emphasis was introduced into each concert through individual testimonies and spontaneous choruses by the members. It has been apparent that definite results have come from' this type of gospel work. Another group lcd by Miss Stoll is the Girls' Glee Club, an organization undertaken for the enjoyment and fellowship ol' singing together just for the fun of it.
