Pan.American
Chorus Attracts
Much Interest

Heads of. missions of the Latin
American republics are taking a
keen interest in the organization
of a pan-American chorus. The
newly elected vice chairman of
the Board of Governors Of the
Pan-American Union, Senor Dr.
Don Francisco Castillo Najera,
Mexican Ambassador, was among
the first to give his name as
sponsor for the chorus. DR.. Leo
S. Rowe, director general of the
union, and DR.. Pedro Alba, as
sistant director general, are en-
thusiastic over the future Of the
singing group.
The organization Of the group
was undertaken by Nine. Nadia
FAM d'Aulby after the recent
sessions of the Inter-American
Committee of Women, when the
need was felt for such a chorus
to sing national anthems of the
American republics.
Additions for singing members
of the organization are being
held and all applications must
be made to Nine. d'Aulby at 735
Thirteenth street. Rehearsals
are expected to start shortly.
The chorus will sing not only the
music of Latin America, but of
contemporary composers in this
country as we'll as the folk music
of the North American Indian
and the Negro.
