The Wildcats didn't go to the NCAA this year, but a significant victory was scored at Carnegie Hall by the University Choristers and the Lexington Singers. Together with the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra and the LaSalle String Quartet, they performed Wilfred Josephs' "Requiem," which won first place in international competition at the LaScalle Opera House in Milan. The event had marked significance not only for the Music Department, but also for the entire University, as evidenced by President and Mrs. Oswald's attendance at the New York performance.
