understanding that is more than
half the battle In any ensemble

Without going into details. the
sibelians demonstrated what can
be done even with a 16-voice en-
semble. There was volume and
nexibility. and fine tonal qsulity
through the entire program.
Whistiing ObIigato
II the word "siffleur" which ap-
peared on the program after the
name Of Lawrence Berg, was a bit
puzzling, II was all cleared up
when Mr.. Berg's whistling obli-

10 official records have been set, l3
of them last year:
The site Cf the regatta has been
changed tins year to three miles
east of the old course The old
course was the fastest in the world
and the new one is designed to be
even faster, officials said. It is 10
miles from Mecca and % miles
south of Indio at The Salton Sea
Yacht club.
The new circuit is one and two
thirds miles long, the same as the
1l-buoy perfect circle course made
famous in Florida waters. There
are II 80O-fcot straightaWays.
Trials are to begin at dawn Sat
urday and competition will continue
through Monday In case any
events have not been run off by

StIIF ID

Ray Muncill, speedy half
back, has been shifted to
quarterback, by Coach Lou
Birnbaum of Ell Centre high
school to underStudy Ed AL
arcon, leagues leading ground gain
er last season.
Although a Sparkplug of the B
team last year, this is MuncillS first
crack at varsity football. Birnbaum
was elated at his shiftiness and
good passing in practice and indi-
Gated that he may set in Spartan
games often.
Muncil and Oscar Hester were
fighting tor the starting berth at
the left half or blocking back berth
on the Spartan team before Mum
Gill was switched. Roy Harvey sec
ond string right halfback will now
try out in the blocking position to
help Hester.
Harvey is a hard runner and
blocks well. Whether he can beat
Hester out of the starting assign
ment will be decided in practice.
Lewis Jackson, left tackle, has
been dropped back into the back
field during practice to do the
putting for the Spartans. They are
probably weaker in the punting de
partment than in any other. Jack
son has been used by Birnbaum 10
