A Capella Choir
To Appear In Rusk
The Wesleyan Singers, the con-
cert a capella choir of Texas
Wesleyan College, Ft. Worth, will
sing a concert at Rusk High School
March 2, around ten o'clock. They
will appear in the Rusk High
School auditorium. The admis-
sion will be fifteen cents for
students and twenty-five cents for
adults. The town is cordially in-
vited.
The choir of 45 singers has p
past experience of five annual
tours, television and radio ap-
pearances, and is regarded by
music critics as one of the most
outstanding choral organizations of
this area. Thomas C. Hardie,
director, is one of the most promi-
nent young choral conductors of
the Southwest.
Donald W. Bellah, chairman of
the Division of Fine Arts of Texas
Wesleyan, in a letter to Curtis
McLeod, principal of Rusk High
School, wrote: "Last spring your
choral director, Mr. Herbert Teat,
called me about singing in your
school. We were unable to ar-
range our schedule to appear in
Rusk at that time, so we are hop-
ing that a concert can be arranged
this year. As to reimbursement,
for a morning appearance we ask
only—that the high school provide
the noon meal the day we sing."
For this reason the student council
has asked that the students pay
fifteen .cents and that adults pay
twenty-five.
F.F.V.'s are
Virginia."
