SINGERS INVITED
 TO FORM PALMER COMMUNITY CHORUS

If enough folk in Palmer want to sing and rehearse, a communi- ty chorus soon will be formed in Palmer, Bill Remple said today.
 And he has high hopes of stag ing such productions as Oklaho- ma, or the Red Mill, or the ever popular Gilbert and Sullivan HMS Pinafore.
 Remple was the music director of the highly successful Kiwanis minstrel show. Most of that group will remain in the Valley this summer and with ten or more additional voices, he believes a fine musical production will be not only possible but a pleasure both for singers and for the pub lie.
 We want to start within the next thirty days" Remple said. Everyone who is interested is in- vited to try out. We especially need more sopranos"
 He asked that singers contact him at once.
 Once the group is formed we will have to limit it to that num- ber," he said.
