There are about 75 members. Around Thanksgiving they participated in a Thanksgiving Concert at Fryar Gym, along with other American and Japanese music groups from Yokohama. In December they sang in a Winter Concert put on by Yo-Hi. They sang The Night Before Christmas 'i as their main song. One ofthe activities of the Glee Club this year was to enter the International Music Contest, where they sang one of their favorite songs, Lollytoodum. Although they did not win a prize, they got the experience of being in the program and seeing some top Japanese and American musicians. The high point of this year for the Glee Club was their performance ot NH. M. S. Pinaforef' After about two and one half months' work on this Gilbert and Sullivan operetta, they gave a very nice performance, and all the members felt that the work was worth it. H. M. S. Pinafore 'i is an activity that they will never forget. Hereis hoping that next yearis Glee Club will have as much fun as this year's has had. 127
