The Junior College String Quartet has played in assembly, represented the school in the various exchange programs given at the schools throughout the county, and has been in great demand by organizations in the city. BRASS QUARTET This combination of four trumpets is one that is not often heard. The group was greatly enjoyed both in assembly and in the concerts. The combination is equally adaptable to classical, semi-popular, and jazz arrangements. The blending of tones and close harmony which results from the use of the four trumpets is very effective. Brass Quartet B. O ' Leary, W. Fraser. K. Spidell, W. Pool.

I El 1 1 I? I: l IS 171 ■I li Y S ' (I LEE CLU IS Perhaps the most interesting feature I the Boys ' Glee Club is its system of Student Government. The boys make their own rulings and govern them as befits any true college glee club. There was a very large group which appeared for trj outs with Miss ddie Belle Long directing, but since the number is limited, ever) one could not belong. The boys who did pass the try outs made a splendid organization and a showing in the community. The big events ot the year lor both the boys ' ami girls ' glee clubs are the fall concert, the Christmas program, the operetta, the two commencement exer- cises, and the assemblies tor which special numbers are prepared. Glee Club members of this semester and last were: Eddie Abbott John Ashbai ,II Burnett Atkinson Donald Burum 1 1 XKR i C RUOTHERS Robert Coats Blrke Daly Sidney De Ros j vmes egan Mil ion Flentge Leonard Fi lbright Charles Hall William 1 Iendric ks in Alan Hinsdale Wallace Jeffrey Eugene ECillingsworth Adolph i s Lowi vyne McI )iinai.i Ti i McLachlin Tom Mkilandt 1 I VRRY Moore Emrich Nicholson John Ratekin Wiley Riggs Frank Silva W U(l) INC INI Albert Eddy ( iDRDON TREN III H.
