1937 Cedrus Yearbook

When the Girls' Glee Club was organized in the fall of 1936, the members decided upon uniforms of sweater and skirt in the college colors. The Glee Club has made a number of appear- ances before high school and other audiences. They also sang for the College Day of Prayer and the Girls' Bible Reading Contest. For the spring programs they prepared a group of spring songs and the suite of Venetian songs by Ethelbert Nevin which they sang at the Song Fest and for the Cedarville Women's Club at their Spring Musicale. The Mixed Chorus has made a number of pub- lic appearances this year on the campus as well as in nearby towns. On December 6 this group broadcast a sacred programover station WHIO. Among the outstanding appearances on the campus are a most effective Candlelight Service at Christmas; at Easter Gaul's oratorio, "The Holy City" was rendered in the Presbyterian Church; and they sang the Gilbert & Sullivan opera, "Trial by Jury" as a part of the Sing Fest on April 29. The Chorus meets for an hour every Monday and Wednesday evenings in the basement of the library. Due to Garlough's return for a post-graduate course, the old quartet remained intact from last year. A new quartet of freshmen and sophomores was organized. Several appearances were made by both quartet in Cedarville, Bowersville, Car- lisle, Mason, Ross, Lena-Conover and Jamestown. Programs of sacred music were given in Xenia and over radio station WHIO in Dayton. Miss Biskett has been an able and willing in- structor and our thanks go to her for the time and effort she has spent with the quartets. 69 THE GIRLS' GLEE CLUB THE MIXED CHORUS MALE QUARTETS
