Sev- eral members took part in the Christmas program and the Club presented the operetta, Miss Cherryblossom . The Japanese theme, scenery and danc- ing produced a picturesque effect. ln addition to the activities at school, Upper Merion is represented by four C-lee Club members in the South Eastern District Chorus. Anna Mun- shower, Reba Jones, Walter Levering and John Stanley are their repre- sentatives. fi The Clee Club will also provide the singing at the graduation exercises this June. It has gained its reputation not so much by size, as by the talent displayed. 1461
