"We are very cosmopolitan," the dean said. "We have bankers, lawyers, clerks, society people-in fact, all sorts of people. They are all drawn by their love of music." To sing in the chorus at all, the appli- · cant must have a fair voice and some previous experience in choir work. The best voices are always given first choice.

It will also sing "All This Night My Heart Rejoices," an arrangement by Dean Lutkin written for the occasion. It will have its first presentation at the festival and will be giyen without accompaniment, with antiphonal phrases between the chorus and the A Cappella choir. Mr. and Mrs. E.
