Musical Clubs. now on their annual
Eastern trip to the South. Sixty stu
dents. representing the glee. banjo. and
ma ndolin clubs. furnished the program.

schedule, and the enthusiastic audi
ence demanded an encore for each one.
The little ballroom was crowded with
an attractive audience. composed of So
ciety folk and university students and
officials.
The Glee Clubs presentation of "A
Tragic Drama probably was the best
received number. 1t consisted of the
humorous rendition of the simple story
of a grasshopper on a sweet potato vine
turkey Sobbler. c. l.. Heyniger's rendi-
ton of the story in imitation of Italian
opera was especially good.

The Hawaiian sextets playing of
Echoes from Hawaii WED with "A
Tragic Drama" for first honors. The
weird music of the eukalele won the pro-
longed applause of the audience. The

Club. opened the program with Eno's
plantation Symphony" The Glee Club
made its first appearance with the Song
of the Vikings" The Passing of Sa-
lone" introduced the Mandolin Club.
The University Quartet was remark
ably good. The merry little piece, The
Elfman," made a hit, and the bass
.ha, ha, ha'' refrain of Mr.. Heyniger
created much laughter. "Just Smile"
80 oh
even a greater success. The recur-
rent Just smile-so smile" refrain
of E. NJ. Roberts. first tenor, furnished
the risible element.
Mr.. Heyniger. second bass. was the
outstanding featured Individual of the
troupe. He sang Rolling Down to
Rio" accompanied by the entire Man
dolin Club. The Glee Club sang an in
teresting medley, which cleverly in
troduced snatches of a score of famil-
lar tunes. "Colored Guards" by the
Banjo Club, possessed the ragtime
spirit and got much applause. The
program was rounded of by an en-
