MUSIC ZgNlVERSITY HIGH offers to any student interested in music a wide choice of activity. ' In the instrumental department, there are the much improved band and orchestra, as well as the various junior high instrumental classes, which are instructed by students in the Uni- versity School of Music. Two new groups have been organized by the students for their own pleas- ure. At the suggestion, and with the aid of Mr. Burnett, the Little German Band has had an inter- esting first year. VVith Mr, Carson as advisor, a dance orchestra was organized, which has been playing regularly at the Friday noon dances. The vocal department offers regular classes in vocal technique which are seldom available in a high school. There are also the traditional Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs, and the A Cappella Choir, which is open only to a limited number, has completed its second year. The choir broadcasted once a month during the winter in a series of radio music classes conducted by Professor Maddy of the University. This year a romantic-comic operetta, The Lass of Limerick Town, replaced for the first time the annual spring cantata. The Glee Clubs and A Cappella Choir, including about eighty students, combined forces to work on the operetta. Under the musical direction of Miss Qlson, the dramatic direction of Mr. Ford, and the assistance of Mrs. Chapin on the costumes, it was presented on the twenty-seventh and eighth of March. Philip Newman appeared in the role of the gallant Captain Pomeroy Worthington who comes to Limerick Town, Ireland, to seek his promised bride, Rose tRuth Mary Smith and Virginia Osgoodl. Rose, by virtue of being the elder of two cousins, nieces ofa wealthy uncle, is an heiress and Betty tBeth O'Roke and Ethel Sinithl, the real Lass, is a pauper. Betty obligingly changes places with Rose who hates romance, but they do not fool the Captain. He falls in love with the real Betty and is ready to marry her, money or no money. Hap ytily, it is discovered that due to the almost forgotten difference in time between Ireland and America, the cousins' respective birthplaces, Betty actually is the older and therefore receives the money. Thus, to the chorus's delight, the Captain satisfies both his heart and his pocketboolc, Because of the enthusiasm with which the operetta was received on both nights, the music de' partnient is planning others for the future.
