Tech CLEE CLUB
ON FINAL TOUR
To Appear In Americus Saturday
Night In Splendid New
Program

The Georgia Tech Glee club is on
its final tour through Georgia for
the 1922 season. The season thus far
has been highly successful, and the
last trip bids fair to be the best of
all. Barnesville, Macon, Savannah,
Valdosta and Americus are included
in the itinerary. The trip began in
GAINESVILLE on Tuesday night, 20,
then Macon last night, Savannah, to-
night, Valdosta Friday, and Americus
Saturday night.
Last week, the performance at Ag-
mes Scott College, Atlanta, conclusive
ly proved the real worth of the club,
Time and time again special num-
bers were called back. DIR. Johnson,
director of music at the college, spoke
very highly of the work of the Glee
club.
A number of new features have
been added to strengthen the pro-
gram. Chief among these is the solo
of Russell Stokes. Stokes has Won
derful bass voice, and delivers IN
victus' in masterful fashion Stokes
discovered that he had a voice while
guide in the military ranks. His
voice was so tuneful that the boys
could not drill for listening to Russell
count Russell is also a member of
the famous Yellow Jacket Four, and
his bass puts the finishing touches to
the quartet.
Gaffney and Levy have blossomed
forth again in little highbrow stuff.
Last season they were the hit of the
club. With Gaffney's natural wit and
Levy's musical instinct, they can not
help going over big. This year they
have a brand new outfit of original
stunts, some clever jokes, and classy
line of stag patter. And they are
going over like tent. Last season,
at the end of school, Levy and Gaff-
ney were offered position with a
vaudeville circuit. Since both boys
will graduate this year, they refused.

MEMORIAL DEDICATED
IN WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, April 27.-The
Grant memorial, dedicated here to-
day, is one of the largest groups of
statuary in the world. The eoues-
trian portion of it is said to be ex-
ceeded in height only by the statue
of Victor Emanuel in Rome. Fifteen
years have been required to bring it
to virtual completion
The entire memorial which with to-
days dedicatory3 ceremonies takes its
place in the national capital with the
.soon-to-be dedicated Lincoln memor-
ial and the great monument which
has stood for half century as
memorial to Washington, is beauti-
work of art. Occupying a position
of prominence at the east end of the
Botanical Gardens facing the capitol
grounds it has been approved by Au-
gustus Saint Gaudens, Charles F. Me
Kim, Daniel c. French and other
prominent American artists.
The marble superstructure on
which the various groups stand is
262 feet long, 90 feet deep and five
feet above the ground. An eques-
trian statue of Grant stands on
high central pedestal at the west side
facing the Washington Monument
and Lincoln memorial at the other
end Of the Mall. Lower pedestals at
the north and south ends support mas
sive groups of cavalry and artillery,
respectively. The infantry arm is to
be presented by bronze bas-reliefs
to be placed on the side of the maii.

not completed.
Before the final memorial was com

were submitted and the award final
ly was given to Henry W. Shrady, who
died a few weeks ago, and Edward
Pierce Casey, architect, of New
York. The erection of the statue was
authorized by congress q years ago,
but various causes contributed to the
delay in the completion of the MEM

opposition to the erection in the Bot
