■ Forty-two Musicians Are Members of the NSC Orchestra 4 When Mr. Paul McEnderfer joined the faculty of NSC in 1958, he shouldered the responsibility of rebuilding the college orchestra which had almost completely disintegrated in the years prior to his arrival. On Thursday evening, April 28, the results of his work were displayed to the public as the NSC Orchestra presented an excellent concert which featured compositions by Berlioz, Haydn, Bee- thoven, Bach and other composers. The orchestra also played an important part in the NSC produc- tion of Showboat earlier In the year. The orchestra met every Tuesday night as a regularly scheduled class. Of the forty-two mem- bers, twenty-eight were college students. The rest of the personnel were musicians from the local area with a definite interest in orchestra.

The Men's Chorus joined forces with the male members of The Choraleers and with the NSC Concert Band to present Randall Thompson's A Testament of Freedom. In April The Choraleers toured towns in Nebraska and Colorado, appeared on the college televi- sion series, and filmed a television show in Denver during their stay in the Mile High City. The group also presented their final home concert and sang for graduation exercises. The well-received college swing band, The Commanders, toured Nebraska and Colorado with the Concert Band and played for various functions in Kearney and in surrounding communities.
