Music and Clever Impersona-
tons Make Up Program of
Girls Glee Club

An appreciative audience heard the
concert given by the Girls Glee Cluo
of Albright College, presented in the
Technical High School Auditorium last
night. The audience was generous with
it's applause and the club, liberal with
encores. which resulted in most salts
factory conditions, despite the pouring
rain outside.
Hawley's Song of the Seasons"
beautiful chorus number opened the
program. Next was a Southern num-
ber. rich in harmony and abundant in
color, the beautiful Lady Chloe OF
Leighter. 1t was sung by the Misses
Albert, Custer. Sutton and Trumptheller.
The deep, rich alto of Miss Sutton was
especially beautiful in the quartet, as
was the clear, sweet soprano of Miss
Albert.
Teresa del Riego's "Slave Song
familiar number. followed, sung by Miss
Mary Smoke, who has a very pretty alto.
Miss Grace Spangler. who holds high
place in the concert world here, cap
sized the audience with a humorous
imitation of a Pennsylvania Dutch wo-
man. Miss Spangler. who is quite well
known here, was formerly instructor in
elocution at Albright College and is
now doing private coaching work her
presentations of the various characters
and her apt impersonations won for her
a bow and a second encore.
Another harmonious Southern num-
Der. Medley From the South was next
presented by the club. 1t incorporated
the heart-touching melodies of the
Southland which are dear to the hearts
of all.
Opening the second part of the pro-
gram, Miss Elizabeth Stauffer, pianist,
played John Densmore's brilliant But
terfiy" with fine effect. The quartet fol-
lowed with two numbers, the most
pleasing being Neidlinger's Sweet Miss
Mary" and responded to an encore by
singing Jack and JILL" Miss Irene AL
bert sang "The Winds in the South" in
which her voice verged on the colora-
tura, and at times actually broke into
it. She responded to prolonged ap-
plause with Cuckoo" which Harris
burgers remember through Miss Bessie
Wynne's presentation of it upon her
appearances in this city.
Fanning's 1.-The Mller's Wooing,"
familiar glee club number which has
lost none of its beauty by repetition,
was sung by the chorus. Miss Spang
Ter was greeted by spontaneous ap-
plause when she reappeared, imper-
sonating a Pennsylvania German wo-
man in a motion picture show, and fol-
lowed with several child representations.
In her motion picture show impersona-
tions, she was at her best, seeming
to draw her various characters from the
empty air. She brought vividly to her
hearers, word pictures of the various
characters impersonated in way that
stamped her as out of the amateur
class.
The program closed with the clubs
presentation of "Rantin' Rovin Robin"
and alma Mater" an extremely beauti-
full college song. Interpolated between
the two closing numbers, the organiza-
ton sang by request Medley From
the South" for the second time.
Among the members of the club were
two girls who have many friends here,
Miss Ruth K. Sutton. of Lebanon, and
Miss Thelma Maginnis, of Steelton.
Both played prominent parts in the
program.
