This will include a concert band of 100 members, a symphony band at least 200, an orchestra with 125 and two choirs with 100 each. There is some overlap of membership, with music campers being permitted to join two performing groups.

Many public performances will be offered throughout the six weeks of camp.
Each Sunday afternoon from June 27 through August 1 a concert will be presented by the chamber and concert choirs and the camp orchestra. The concerts are at 3 p.m. in the University Theatre in Murphy Hall.
On those evenings a concert will be given by both bands at 7:30 at the outdoor theatre, which is located between Hoch Auditorium and Haworth Hall.
ALL OF THESE MUSICAL performances will be free of charge as will be the recitals.
A faculty recital will be given on July 7, two advance student recitals on July 28 and June 30 and two camer recitals on July 14 and July 21. All of these will be in Swarthout Recital Hall in Murphy.

University Theatre, July 26 through 28.
The ballet camp will conclude its camp session with a ballet recital Saturday, July 31, in the University Theatre.
The public is invited to attend all performances.
Deadline for Cap and Gown Receipts Moved to May 28
The deadline for picking up cap and gown receipts in the Business Office has been extended until Friday, May 28.
The original deadline was set for today, as emphasized in the Senior Reminder.
"However, since about one-half of the seniors have not gotten them, we are extending the deadline another week," said Harold I. Swartz, auditor.
"We'd rather they come in as soon as possible," Swartz continued, "since we have the receipts all ready and it only takes about 30 seconds to stamp one and give it out.
"But if too many wait until next Friday they may have to wait in line for 10 or 15 minutes," he warned.
Co-ops Cut Expenses Under Unique System
Economic co-operation by undergraduate and graduate students forms the base for living in KU's co-operative housing system.
This is the greatest attribute of the system, Gerald Denning, Hill City senior and former president of Don Henry Co-op, said. Under this plan, the men prepare their own food, clean the house and do minor repair work.
Former Gov. George Docking once owned the house at 1420 Ohio, now occupied by 14 KU men. Docking pushed the co-operative living plan when he was a banker here and is largely responsible for the KU system.
ROCHDALE CO-OP, 1537 Tennessee, is the only other operating co-operative on the campus. Hilden Gibson Co-op, 1614 Kentucky, is not in use this year.
Ingo Roedig, Hamburg, Germany, senior, and purchasing agent for Rochdal, said co-operative living costs each member approximately $55 a month. The money covers room and board. There is generally a refund at the end of each month which is returned to the members.
A Housing Board composed of the president and treasurer of each house on the hill runs the co-operative system. Jerry Lewis, assistant dean of the college of liberal arts and sciences, and Mrs. Hilden Gibson, whose husband donated the co-operatives, also serve on the board.
SINCE THE HOUSES were donated by Gibson, they are not the property of the State of Kansas or of the University. Denning said the houses still are required to follow the rules and regulations of the University because they house KU students.
Each co-operative provides living quarters for about 15 men. More can live in the house if the members are willing to double up in their rooms, Denning said.
Unlike most organized living groups on the campus, the co-ops do not have a house mother or resident director. This puts more responsibility on the men, Denning said.
