Oh me, oh my, We'll get it by and by. Although they, 'ike all other groups, were organized at the beginning of the year un- der the direction of Miss Yates, were directed by substitutes, and finally settled down again with a permanent director, Mr. Alvin W. Schmutz, the double quar- tette managed to remain intact. Every VVednesday morning-early-at 8:00 A.M. found them gathered in the mu- sic hall to rehearse. They also met on Thursday evenings after school to run through their do-re-mi's. Like other music ensembles they sang at assemblies and for various groups. They also appeared at the district contest at Wichita University on April 5 and 6. Among their numbers were Nightin- gale, presented at the first of the year and Siesta by Schmutz, which they took to contest.

One who tarried in the halls on Monday and Wednesday prob-ably heard Mr. Schmutz instructing the triple trio in a manner very similar to this.These were the days that the nine gir's met to make beautiful music togetherf' rehearsing songs which they sang in assemblies, at church, for various clubs and groups, and at contest in Wichita on April 5 and 6. For a Treble Clef meeting in the spring they sang several numbers written by Mrs. Milliken. Other num- bers they presented are Ave Maria, Pierrot by Mark Andrews, and I Love You by Cole Porter.
