HARVARD GLOOM
 CLUB SUGGESTED
Graduate Proposes Changing
 Name Of GIee Club

Cambridge. Mass. Jan. l5 Pt-- A suggestion ihat the Harvard Gee club be rechristened the Harvard Gloom club is contained in d letter in the current issue Of the Harvard Alumni Bulletin from Thomas W. sloeomb of New York, oversccr of the college and former president of the Associated Harvard clubs. Mr. SlocOmb criticisos the Glce club for its recent refusal 10 participate in the annual intercollegiate Glee club contest because the selected prize song Is too simple"
 "A crQel world might think that they considered themselves too su- porior" wrote Mir. Socomb, "The pr,zo song is only 50 per cent of the tcst-cach college making up its own program for the balance. To q lay mind it might seem that even the most skillful could show their prOTess in art that was simple as well as art ornate.
 Cannot the present Glee club continue in it's serious work under some other tiilc-say the Harvard Gloom club? This would alloy liar yard 10 he represented bS q gleefuI club in connection with her sister colleges, and Harvard graduates could be proud of their representa- lives as sportsmen, which they can not be now"
 MT. Slocomb's criticism Is answer cd in an interview with c. Wallace Woodwork, 24 acting conductor of the club in the absence of Dr. 4. T. Davidson. Dr. Davidson termed Haryard's 5 withdrawal from the con test as q refusal to sing Sentimental mush."
 Acting Director WoodWorth de elares that Harvard did not protest against the prize song for this year because 1t vas too simple Both in correspondence with the intereolle- giate corporation and in public statements. I have pointed out that the last thing Harvard desired vas q difficult or a showy song. Harvard protested solely against the musica inferioriiy of the song, its lack of real musical worth"
