Glee Club

At Victoria College there is a flourishing body known as the Glee Club, which aims to balance, with a little culture and melody, the prosaic and studious atmosphere of the lecture-room and library.

Its sphere of activity is becoming increasingly wide. In the last two years it has given the College two concerts at which varied and entertaining programmes were presented. This year the members performed under the baton of Mr. Denzil Ward, to whom the club is deeply indebted for his generous and able assistance. The club is also indebted to Mr. R. L. Hutchens, who officiates so capably at the piano, not only at the concerts and practices, but at the community sings which the club sponsors from time to time. As relaxation from student labours these community sings are incomparable, as all who have attended have discovered.

Another useful work which this organisation has undertaken is the compilation of a book of V.U.C. Student Songs. It would be a great pity for these characteristic compositions to be lost, yet at present there is no permanent record of them, and they are in danger of falling into

oblivion. In recognising and remedying this, the club will earn the gratitude of every student, past, present, and future. Indeed, such an organisation as this, which aims at the development of talent and the improvement of the cultural tone of the College, deserves the wholehearted support and enthusiasm of every member.
