Out of the fifty entries of pupils from R. H. Carnish School in the vocal competi- tions i.e. solos, duets, etc., only twenty-three were able to compete; the rest were forced to withdraw because of a flu germ that was run- ning rampant during per- formance week.

Cindy Mabley placed 2nd in her class of 9 year girls, over forty other contestants, singing "Nobody Knows", beating Jennifer Sweetman by one mark.

However, words of praise were given them in " appreciation of their phras- ing, feeling for the content of their songs, and their musicianship. Secondary School students who participated were Nancy Warren winning the class for trained voices over 14 years with a mark of 83; and Bill Slwte who was one mark behind first place in the trained voice class of boys over 14 years, ° Monday, Mar. 10, of Festi- val Week was given over to competition in piano classes.
