DRAMA CLUB Bashfully we admit that our audiences had a very good laugh this year. Modestly we attribute it all to the stupendous performances of our niembers. Shyly we are taking several curtain calls. Our first play for Thanksgiving, called ‘“A Note To Myself,’ combined a little moraliz- ing with a lot of slapstick to the approval of the alumnae and ecstasy of the third graders. Next, our abilities were turned to the Lincoln’s Birthday program, in which the life of Lincoln was stirringly traced in poem and play from boyhood to presidency. Although we could have used Raymond Massey here and there, the program was moving and highly appreciated. After the usual “war,” “She Stoops to Conquer’ by Goldsmith became the spring play. Since the gay comedy had not been produced at this writing, with the aid of our imaginations we feel that “She Stoops’ was the success to end all successes. Whatever it was, the cast, the stage crew, and, we hope, Miss Bradshaw, had a wonderful time with it, and with all our attempts of a year.

GLEE CLUB You've often been told of what the Glee Club sings at concerts. You have probably attended some of the concerts yourself. But are you aware of the months of extra rehearsals and pr eparations for the big night? You are probably vaguely aware of some kind of preparation when you find that the Assembly Room on Mondays and the sixth- floor drawing-room on Thursdays are closed to all except “musicians” until five o'clock. You hear strains of pleasant music as early as November and probably wonder why we bother to call so many more extra rehearsals as time goes on. What goes on behind those closed doors—‘‘hic labor est.” First, we all have our music in front of us. It’s easy enough to go on endlessly, just reading music and words. But try to do three measures correctly without those precious pieces of paper. Rule num- ber one is—o music at the concert!—However, while we still have time to cling to our librettos, we sing the notes and the words right (well, al- most right). During this time Mr. Ross patiently points out to us the value of intonation and feel- ing in a song; for days he goes through musical President Vice-President calisthenics to get us to produce the right ‘‘mood.” Yet the minute we sing by heart, everything 1s forgotten as we concentrate on remembering words and music. Mr. Ross will sit quietly, glance coldly about him, and say something to this effect: “I have been associated with music for years. Will you please explain to me what you were singing?” Thereupon we begin again, and sing again, and fifty times more after that. The concert of the year, the end and aim of all the rehearsals, was with the Williams Glee Club on March thirteenth, at the Junior League. We hope the audience felt that the rehearsals—and the extras—resulted in a musically satisfactory and delightful performance, Many of the audience did say these complimentary words. In turn, the Glee Club wishes to thank both Miss Prohaska and Mr. Ross for their pat ence, their inspiration, and their devotion to the Club’s musical training. Finally, as the Club’s President, I want to thank all the members for the spirit with which they have sung all the year through.
