"AS this is the first
time the glee club has en
tered the district contest

tliird rating is good",
states Idss Julia Lawrence^
director.
Conmients of the three
judges were; "Second so
prano and alto section
need improvin;;^ tone quali
ty; entrances are weak;
and harmony is bad at
times.
"Prayer, "Ilaensel and
