The girls choir has been in
vited to sing between the one-ac
plays put on by the Playmaker,
around Thanksgiving. The girl.

work in the past weeks and are
progressing nicely, both on theil
regular music and on Christina,
music.
The mixed chorus is getting to
gether for full rehearsals now ant
are finding out that singing to
gether is quite different than il
separate groups. Ask the seconl
period basses why Santa's nose i.
