Girls state

We arrived at Wesley Junior
College 9 o'clock Tuesday morn
ing, June 20, 1850. We registered
and were given cards to designate
the party to which we would be-
long. Verna Smith and Sara Jane
Sparks were in the Federalist
party and Ruth KINNEY was in
the Nationalist party After re-
ceiving instructions at Holt Chap
ell each party met in their caucus
to present party planks. After
lunch we reconvened to our caucus
to adopt or reject planks for our
party platform. Then each party
nominated candidates for govern
or, lieutenant governor, attorney
general, state auditor, state trea-
surer, and the state insurance COM
missioner. After dinner we went
to political convention in the col
lege gymnasium where the candi-
dates gave their campaign speech
es. After we voted, we chose our
positions in Legislative Hail by Sc
lecting certain cards designating
whether you were a representative,
a senator, or an attache. Verna
Smith became a representative,
Sara Jane Sparks, a senator, and
Ruth KINNEY an attache, in the
senate.
The following day we reported
to Holt Chapel where Senator Vera
Davis talked on government pro-
cedure. We then went to Legisla-
tive Hall where each party in their
respective houses, went into cauc-
us to elect the officers of that
house. After these elections, we
proceeded to introduce, discuss,
and vote on certain bills in the
regular parliamentary procedure.
We had several very interesting
bills which were presented before
both the house and the senate. One
of these bills was the amendment
for equal rights for women. The
house passed this amendment and
the senate passed by only one vote.
There was much discussion about
the bill approving the entrance of
Negroes to the University of Del
aware. This bill passed the house
without too much trouble; but it
did not pass the senate. This par
ticular bill was recalled once in
the senate and there was an at
tempt to recall the same bill a
third time, but it failed. There was
bill favoring retail sales tax that
did not pass either house. The bill
for world federation did not pass
either house. This bill meant that
each country would have to give
up its flag and constitution and
live under one flag and constitu-
tion. Many girls felt that a maj
ority of the countries would not
consider this. There was bill in
troduced that stated that bill
boards should be placed at least 20
feet from highway. This bill did
not pass either.
We had a very interesting time
meeting girls from other schools
in our state, seeing how the gov
ernment in the state is operated,
and learning more about the prob
lens of today. We think this is a
very worthwhile project Many
thanks go to the American Legion
Auxiliary for financing this three
day trip to the state capitol, and
to our classmates who elected us.

By Alice Eversmon

The Westminster Choir. under
the direction of its noted conduc-
tor, John Finley Williamson. was
heard again in Constitution Hall
last night after an interim in
which the group has toured ex-
tensively. Sponsoring this ap-
pearance were the First Baptist,
Calvary Baptist. First Congrega-
tional and Chevy Chase Presby-
terian Churches, which had nc
difficulty in gathering an enthu-
siastic audience to welcome back
the popular singers.
Since the choir has become the
touring concert unit of the Wes-
minister Choir College. its pro-
grams have been designed accord
ingly. That of last night was
choice in its sacred numbers, its
spirituals and folk songs. All
were sung with the special tonal
quality and technique that has
been developed in the school. In
comparison to other choral groups
that have appeared in Constitu-
ton Hall this season, it might be
likened to the timbre of an Amati
violin in contrast to the Guarne-
RUS richness in which the Lu-
theran ensembles, in particular,
seem to excel.
The absence of very deep bass
voices and also of pronounced res
onance may account for the lyric
ism that distinguishes the West
minister singers. The women's S
voices are particularly fine. high,
clear and true to pitch. The
quality Of the tenors Is more con-
stricted, although that of the solo,
ist in this division Is notable.
That they are all excellent mu-
sicians, thoroughly trained and
quickly responsive in effects, was
demonstrated at once in the num-
bers by 18th and 18th century
composers, which formed an OPEN
ing group. 1t served also as prepa-
ration for the excerpts from Mo-
zart's "Vesper," wherein the vir-
tuosity of the singers shone. For
this number. an accompaniment
was provided by seven string in
