Between groups by the Treble Clef club, Neva Belle Irwin senior from Stafford, will sing two soprano solos, "What Is a Song?" by Curran, and "May-Day" by Walthew, and Wanda Rector will play the piano number, "Nocturne Major" by Chopin. The group numbers present variety and beauty. The last group is made up of Chinese Mother Goose rhymes and a Mexican folk song, "Rosita." Some of the other pieces are "To Night" by Evans "Tree Silences" by Lenz, and "Let There Be Music," by Levenson The Treble Clef club was organized In 1910 by Miss Strouse and has sung in Emporia and other cities each year since that time The organization has never had the technical purpose of selecting songs to be used by the members for future teaching, but has studied and sung for the pleasure received fay the singers.

No admission will charged Wednesday night, but a collection will be taken. The Business Men 1 Chorus was founded In 1929 by th, late Frank Beach, in response requests from men in many dif ferent forms of business for chance to sing for the sheer pleas ure of it. Their activity has been continuous and varied since tha time. Under such leaders as PVank Beach, Floyd Wakeland and Alber Schmutz of the Teachers College Lloyd C. Bender, Carl Van Buskirk and Dr.

Daniel c. Hlrschler of the College of Emporia, and Marshal Randel, who has directed the club for the past three years, the men have made a big place for them selves in the town and in neighboring areas with their concerts and generously given special numbers at many civic occasions. Their support to other groups needing singers has been particularly timely this past year, when the shortage of man-power In the schools and in other choruses has made it especially hard to find tenors and bases. The assistance given by the men to the Welsh St David's day program this year will be remembered by the hundreds who heard them at that time. And without then- help it would have been impossible this year for Emporia State to present any chora numoer for mixed voices Their participation in the Wedding Feast" rehearsals has been whole-hearted and enthusiastic.

As a result the audience Wednesday will hear a spirited performance of the cantata, with a vigorous, well balanced group of male voices, a prime requisite for this virile music. The members comprising the Business Men's chorus are the following: First tenors: Collins Mendel. Dale Roberts, Lon Glass Cleve Hull, Fred Nevins, and Gilbert Anderson; second tenors: V.D.Milner Jack Hamble, Grover Piper Wilber Wolfe, Dr. W. R.

Fox, and Harold Porter; baritones: Ralph Edwards Porter Clark, and L. T. Tate bases: Kirk Austin.

A large number of civic and study clubs of the city are lending their sponsorship to the concert, the proceeds of which, in the form of a free-will offering to be collected during the evening by the Junior Red Cross, will go wholly to the Red Cross funds. The following are the groups which thus far have pledged their support: Auxiliary of Sons of Union Veterans, Army Mothers club, American Association of University Women, Amercian Legion, Auxiliary of American Legion, BusJ- and Professional Women's club, r- Business Men's chorus, Chamber of Commerce, Chapter CG of PJE.O., Chapter ES of PJE.O., Stuctf' i club; Cosmopolitan, Credit Breakfast club, Daughters of Amer- lean Revolution, Daughters of Unioft Veterans, Forum, Junto, Kiwanis, Kansas State Teachers college, Literary League, Lions.
