GLEE CLUB TO GIVE “GEISHA GIRL”)

DURING SECOND SEMESTER

Contrary to the usual Gilbert and
Sullivan tradition, “The Geisha Girl,” a
light opera, with the lyrics by Harry
Greenbank and the music by Sidney
Jones, has been chosen by the Glee Club
for its performance this year. Try-outs
for pow will begin next week when
the scores arrive.

The scene of “The Geislia Girl” is
laid in Japan. The opera consists of two
acts, the first in the tea house of “The
Ten Thousand Joys,” and the second at
“Chrysanthemum Day” in \the Palace
Gardens. There are thirteen vocal parts
and several minor characters in the
cast.

In 1918-19 the Glee Club gave “The
Pirates of Penzance,” by Gilbert and
Sullivan, in which L. Grim, Junior song
leader, took the heroine’s part. Last year
there was no Glee Club performance on
account of May Day.

Glee Club officers for 1920-21 are: E.
Kimbrough, '21, leader; E. Boswell, ’21,
secretary, and F. Childs, ’23, stage man-
ager. :
SOCIAL SERVICE TEA GIVEN FOR

MISS BARRETT AND WORKERS

Under the auspices of the Social Serv-
ice Committee a tea was held for Miss
Helen Barrett, 15, Director of the Com-
munity Center, and all Community Cen-
ter workers, last Thursday afternoon in
E. Mathew’s room in Pembroke West,
to exchange ideas and plans. A reor-
ganization of last year’s ten-cent teas
was also discussed.

It was decided to hold teas this year
once a month for Center workers, each
one having the privilege of bringing a
friend interested in social service work
of any kind though unable to work at
the Center. Special talks will be given
from time to time on subjects related to
Community Center work, for instance,
Americanization, thus keeping the inter-
est in genuinely social service fields.
