By ROBERT MILES
Technically almost llawless. and
coinbi.iing a full, well sustained tone
mith a beautiful cassic restraint.
Transylvania college's A Capella
choir presented a program of sacred
music at the Sunday afternoon
at Memorial hall.
The choir, under the direction of
Jack Bryden. showed a fine balance
between the different sections and
the entrance of parts was always
precise. Accurate intonation and
rhythm; and a remarkably exprcs-siv- c
shading, phrasing, and dynamic
treatment were also commendable.
The pronunciation of words was
clear at all times.
Tile powerful nature of the
"A Mighty Fortress is Our
God" by Johann Sebastian Bach was
enhanced by an elaborate arrangement. The interesting contrast between the voice parts was best exemplified by the exciting fugal passages in the bass section.
The reverent spirit of the twelfth
century melody "Beautiful Sa'ior"
whs achieved by the mai.itenance of
a delicate
balance between the
melodic line and the soft, organ-lik- e
jamming that provided harmonic
background.
The performance of
the song "I Will Love Thee O Lord.
My Strength" by Vassily Kalinnikov
revealed more volume and rhythmical vitality than had previously been
manifest by the group.
It is unfortunate that the program
as a whole lacked variety and genuine musical content The technical
perlection of the group was offset by
its seeming lack of flexibility. For
this reason, the choir never realized
to tlM' lu'.lest ius very fine potentialities.
The college song. "Hail Transylvania" was sung as an encore

Five trophies will be .awarded for

tivities, about 30 members of the
Men's and Women's glee clubs were
notified last night that they are ineligible to take part in the Palm
Sunday Afternoon Musicale. last
concert of the season.
To be eligible to participate in
public activities, the rule provides
that a student "must be carrying a
schedule of at least 12 credit hours
must not be on probation . . "
and must have no incomplete grades.
A student is placed on proba'ion
for failing "to pass in
of the normal load required in his
college in his preceding year."
The glee clubs have been rehearsing twice weekly throughout
the semester in preparation for Sunday's concert. Enforcement of the
rule will not only decrease the club'
membership for the musicale. but
will also affect participation in several concerts scheduled out in the
state.
Sunday's program, as rehearsed
by the two organizations during the
past weeks, will be presented by the
clubs without the ineligible mem-Ba- ll

night.
The Board of Trustees will meet
Wednesday to consider the rule an j
its application in the present case.
The Kernel was informed. The advisability of deferment this semester will be discussed, it was learned.
The arts and sciences faculty
discussed the rule and its applica-tion- s
to various organizations at a
meeting yesterday afternoon. Since
rigid enforcement or any change in
provisions must be made by the
Senate or Council, the Taculty
take no action in the matter. Dr
Paul P Boyd, dean of the college,
said last night.
