Rural Youth Attend Festival
Kansas rural grade school children are attending the Douglas County Music festival at 2 p.m. in Hoch auditorium today.
This festival is the climax of two months of planning and learning the songs heard over the radio, Dr. Jor-gesen said. Many rural schools have only one-room-containing 13 to 20 students.
This is the third annual festival sponsored by the KU music department. It is designed to help rural vounters learn to sing.
It is also the last in a series of weekly radio programs which began in January in preparation for the festival. The programs in the past have been educational music lessons on the air presented by Dr. Elin K. Jorgensen, associate professor of music education, at 3:15 p.m. every Wednesday.
An instrumental concert will be given by fine arts' students at 3:15 p.m. It will include a flute trio, a clarinet trio, a brass ensemble, and a trumpet solo. Stanford Lehmberg, college junior, will provide organ continuity between the songs.
Various rural schools in the county volunteered to participate in the program and more than 600 children are in attendance. Friday will be a rehearsal and simultaneous program. Although the songs to be sung have each been heard several times on the radio show, this will be the first chance all of the children have had to sing them together.
Students May Obtain Victory Extra Copies
The University Daily Kansan has additional copies of Thursday's victory extra. Students or others who would like to have a copy for their scrapbook or to send relatives and friends may get them at the Kansan business office.
