Pot O' Gold
As one student has put it, the Modern Choir is a group of songsters who can whip out a razzy-jazz in a sophisticated manner.
The choir, unique in this part of the country, is composed of 20 students, eight women and twelve men, who carry from four part to nine part harmony with a style that ranges from Fred Waring's chorus to the Merry Macs. John Cadden, senior engineer, accompanies the group.
The organization was first started in 1936 by Ross Robertson, and continued under his direction for five years, including his last two years in school and three years during which he was an instructor in economics at the University.
This year, the sixth year of its existence, the choir is under the direction of Clarence Peterson, college junior. He received the appointment at the first of the school year from Carter Butler, head of the Student Memorial Union Executive board, which sponsors the choir.
Modern Choir Sings--and Toperka alumni associations.
Leland F. Leland, national histriian and editor of the "Inter-Fraternity Monthly," will preside during the conclave.

in the ballroom of the Memorial Union building. Selections sung by the group are limited to classes of the modern type, which have had their popularity proved, such as "Blue Skies" and "Now And Then." For all special occasions the choir appears in formal dress.
The group is scheduled to appear in Allen Crafton's forth-coming dramatics production, "On With the Show." One of the highlights of its appearances this year was with the University Symphony orchestra in its last concert, "The Ballad for Americans."
Tryouts for choir membership are held each fall, and then individually during the year to fill any vacancies. Membership is open to any student in the University. To quote Peterson, "It is open to anyone who has a flare for the modern."
Last Wednesday, the choir sang at the midweek in the Memorial Union building. Betty Jeanne Hess, college sophomore, and Chestine Wilson, fine arts sophomore, were featured as soloists. One of the hits of the evening was an arrangement of "The Old Cherry Orchard," an old barber shop favorite.
