GIRLS' GLEE CLUB HROUGHOUT The pasf year These girls have parTicipaTed in various musical performances and evoked unsfinfed praise from Those who heard Their rendiTions. Early in The year a maioriTy of The glee club members sang The solemn high Mass ThaT opened The iubilee weelc aT ST. Luke's. During ThaT celebraTion also This choir provided all The lifurgical music ThaT was rendered for The numerous religious funcfions. On The evening of The Senior Play a few of The selecTions, ThaT had formed parf of Their weekly rehearsals, provided enTerTainmenT befween The acTs for The audience. Among These were: Trees, by Joyce Kilmer: Barcarolle and Good NighT , all of which were sung in Two parTs. Eleanor Young, who has direcfed The glee club since she enfered ST. Luke's as a Freshman, again conducTed The singing of This choral group on This occasion. Eleanor has received many congraTulaTory commenTs on her direcTing and we feel iT will be difficulT To replace her nexf year. Besides The group Thaf is preparing To represenf ST. Lulce's aT The annual demon- sTraTion Mass, members of The glee club will also provide all The music for The firsT Mass of Reverend Joseph lvlanz, a former sTudenT of ST. Lulce's. The musical program of The girls was a lengThy one This year buT no maTTer when or where They performed, Their rendifions always possessed arTisTic finish. ThaT speaks volumes! JOAN WALSH, '40, 36
