College Work Day
Will Top $3.50

Proceeds from the Bluffton College
Work Day held on April %, have
reached $3.50 it was announced this
week by Work Day Chairman George
Bailey. The main part of the pro-
ceeds will be used to build a campus
radio station with the remainder GO
ing toward the construction of hard
surfaced tennis courts.
The total is expected to be higher
than $3.50 since some money has not

have enough overall strength to win
the meet despite the shortage of per-

that this would probably be the first

schools would offer serious competi-

And, while this competition does
not come from any one school nor in
any specific event, Mast feels the re-

DELLER AND THE STATUE
The two most famous coun-
tertenorS in music are the
Commentators, Don Giovan-
mis- nemesis. and Alfred
Deller. The story about the
Commentators. confined to
Bernard Shaw. is that he is
actually a male soprano. while
Mozart unobligingly wrote his
music in the bass clef. The
story about Alfred Deller is
that he is going to sing at the
Phillips Gallery December IL.
It is all very well to talk
about rare or unique musical
experiences. the words usually
don't mean much. But good
or bad. the Deller recital viii

for countertenors turn up
hardly more frequently than
seven-piece chess sacrifices.
The high countertenor is a
voice the normal range Of
which Is from the G above mid
die c to the d or e a twelfth or
thirteenth above. 1t is a true
soprano voice in the body of
a man. The notes are not fall
Setto. but are strong, clear head
tones. Furthermore, the pres
ent rarity of countertenors
has nothing whatever to do
with today's comparative con-
tempt in which the singing art
is held, when a good voice is
less to be desired than the null
tiplication of mankind. The
countertenor has always been
rare. but the great esteem In
which the voice has been held
for centuries is not the result
Of this rarity but rather admir-
alton for qualities Of which
high pitch is only one.
1t is certain that the coun-
tertenor must not be confused
with the castrato, whose voice,
though Of great beauty and
power, was (if one can believe
what one reads) of an entirely
different timbre. A good
countertenor voice is light,
supple and clear. It does not
sound at all like that Of q
woman. but If you hear 1t for
the first time under circum-
stances In which you cannot
see the source. as on the radio
or phonograph, you mistakenly
conclude, after a moment Of
total bewilderment, that 1t
must be the voice of a soprano.
1t cannot belong to a boy

tones and power, and to think

this particular nickname should
draw notice in e column given
to frequent mention Of Bee

familiar chords which serve as
reminders Of the imprint this

The projects chief short
coming Is the shortness of the
samples themselves. a brevity
accented by the frequent in
trusion Of Narrator Edward r.

too much like competition.

IndefatigabIe Technician
! have never heard the piano
soloist of the symphony's

attest that he has done an un-

staying with friends by the
name Of Vanderberg in Paris.
The Vanderbergs were gre
garious and affable people,
and we're very proud Of Grant
Johannesen. their pianist. In
bars, restaurants, theaters,
and at the races they would
tell how Grant was home
practicing, how nothing could
interfere with his devotions.
AS the summer wore on there
was a large section Of Paris
that kept In touch with the
progress Of the Johannesen
repertoire. The Beethoven B

schedule that summer, and 1t
is a good bet that If he makes
any mistakes Wednesday he
