' T ' HERE is music in the air, whether it be the spirited ■ ■ strains of a march or the haunting melodies of Brahms or Beethoven. And as long as there are those who can capture its beauty and strike in our hearts a responsive note, our hVcs stand to be enriched by it. With this thought in mind, your TOWER staff dedicates the 1955 annual to MUSIC. Even though The Stout Institute is primarily concerned with the training of men and women in the fields of home economics and industrial education, the college docs not neglect instruction in the finer arts, of which music is an integral part. Under the supervision of Dr. Victor Hardi, The Symphonic Singers and the Bands have gained recog- nition and praise. This spring they climaxed a successful concert tour with an appearance before the convention of the National Federation of Music Clubs. Too often we tend to take for granted the services of such a splendid group of musicians. Yet, how we would miss our marching band at half-time on the foot- ball field! And imagine the last convtKation before the holidays without our traditional Christmas concert. Your 1955 TOWER is a tribute to those who have lifted our hearts on wings of song. (4)
