Qne could hardly realize that the Swing Band is only three years old, lor the musicians Hgave lorthn lilce veter- ans. As usual, it was one ol the most popular organiza- tions on the campus. Capt. Little, who injected new lile into the music activities at Western, led the line trumpet section ol l lynes, lhlunter, Teal, Gole, and hlegberg. Chuclt Kirsch beat it out on the drums lor his third year, aided by l.each. Fox surprised everyone by his slcill on the piano. A new violin section, Vedder and Grass- lield, added melody to the group. The Westernaires played in assembly, lor school plays, in the Christmas extravaganza, and received an ovation at the Final musical concert Graduates will always remember the merry swingsters as one ol the most pleasant diversions at Ulfestern. Pugr 110 Capt. Lowell Little developed the best glee club that Western has had in years. The Kadets could really sing, and their harmony and expression vvere a delight to hear. They appeared in many school programs and at East St. Louis, Jerseyville. Alton, and Monticello Coi- lege. They were outstanding in the last musical concert ol the year. lheir repertoire ranged lrom negro spirituals to martial airs, and the cadet corps loved it. A special Senior Quartet, Jones, lx! Lamb Hunter, and pococlf was selected to sing the lare fvell song at commencement. With such a variety of voices, the glee club should cons tinue its success next year. , .
