Julie Dunn and Libba Massey pre
sented their song recital to the stu
dent body on Wednesday night,
April 20. They gave this recital in
order to complete the requirements
for their music certificates from St.
Mary’s.
They were a delight to look at
and listen to. Julie wore a deep
aqua gown with a beaded bodice
which was accented with a bow. The
dress was empire style and had a
matching full length coat. Libba
wore a chartreuse gown which had
a bell shaped skirt and a beaded bod
ice also.
In the first part of the program
they sang duets in Italian. They were
Claudio Monteverdi’s “Chioma d’oro”
and Mozart’s “Sio non moro” from
“Idomenio.” Accompanying Julie and
Libba were: on the violin, Cynthia
Crisp and Susan Speck; on the cello,
Thel Boyette, Jr.; and on the harpsi
chord, Miss Mary Jane Smith. Inci
dentally, Miss Smith designed and
built tbe harpsichord that she played.
Julie sang four pieces for the sec
ond part: “Geheimes” and “Gretchen
am spinnrad” by Franz Shubert, “Ici-
has” by Gabriel Faure’, and “Air vif
by Francis Paulene. The first two
were German selections and the other
two French pieces.

Next, Libba sang three French
pieces: “Void qui le printenips” by
Claude Debussy, “Bonne Nuit" by
Jules Massenet, and a Scene and Ga
votte from “Manon,” also by Jules
Massenet.
In the fourth part, Julie sang four
English selections: “The K’e” from a
Ghinese poem written in 718 B.G.
and “Sound the Flute,” whose text
was written by William Blake. Both
of these pieces were composed by
Celius Dougherty. Also two selec
tions composed by John Duke were
“April Elegy” and “I Garry Your
Heart” by E. E. Gummings. Finally
she sang “The Black Swan” from
“The Medium” by Gian-Garlo Me-
notti.
Libba sang three English pieces
for the fifth part: “Sleep, now” by
James Joyce and composed by Samuel
Barber, Milne’s “Christopher Robin
is saying his prayers” composed by
H. Fraser - Simson, and “Adele’s
Laughing Song” from “Die Fleder-
maus” by Johann Strauss.
The final two selections were quar
tets from “Martha ” by Friedrich von
Flotow: “Oh my, look the way they
eye us” and “Nocturne.” Dennis Car-
roll and Fred Partin sang with Julie
and Libba in these selections, mak
ing a perfect ending to a delightful
evening.
A lot of work goes into a concert such as the one Libba Massey and
.lulie Dunn gave Wednesday night. Here Libba demonstrates to Iier'suite-
mate, Harbara Leonard.

For Seniors!
By Sally Cruikshank
You walk down to the post office
casually, and you see something in
side your mail box. You turn the
combination and pull out a long
white envelope addressed to you, in
the upper left hand of which are the
words, “Director of Admissions.”
Your hands start shaking uncon
trollably as you try to manipulate the
seal of the envelope.
You finally get it open, you grab
at the letter, and your eyes scan the
page frantically for those words, “we
are happy” or “we regret . . .” Does
this sound familiar?
This is the ordeal the sophomores
and seniors are going through (or
worse, waiting to go through), right
now as colleges across the nation are
mailing their letters of acceptance.
In one of these brief, impersonal
letters is marked the culmination,
good or bad, of the worry, quarrels,
decisions, and pressures caused by
that awful question constantly
present from ninth grade on of where
to go to college.
This question is probably first re
corded in an interminable lecture on
the Big Challenge and the Stiff
Competition, given by some forgotten
junior high guidance counselor.
It showed up again in the piles of
catalogues, now collecting dust in
the closet, sent from some obscure
colleges which had interesting names.
It was the subject of many discus
sions and, more likely, quarrels, most
of which ended very indecisively.
Consider the wasted words.
And now in April this question
will be answered for many people in
one short letter. Only one brief letter,
but what an enormous change it may
make in their lives!

The support of the on-campus Sat
urday night movies has been excel
lent this year. The committee-chosen
films have been well-attended and
highly praised.
“Rebecca,” a fairly recent produc
tion, had a total attendance of forty-
six people. This number was exceed
ed by the number of girls at the next
movie, which was “Diamond Head,
w'ith Charleton Heston being the
major drawing card.
“The Devil at Four O Clock,”
shown last Saturday night, had the
girls present in tears over the plight
of stars Spencer Tracy and Frank
Sinatra.
Only one more film is scheduled
for the month of May, since time has
to be allowed for exam preparation.
The committee is trying to obtain
several of the following films; how
ever, it is not certain whether they
will be available: “Hud,” ‘Song
Without End,” “Bridge on The River
Kwai,” and “The Window.”
The attendance at these movies
will determine the continuation of
this project.
