INTERCOLLEGIATE GLEE CLUB CONTEST ARRANGEMENTS MADE

The Third Annual Intercollegiate Glee Club Contest will be held in Carnegie Hall, New York, on Saturday evening, March 4, at 8.15 o'clock. Two new competitors, Princeton and Penn. State, will enter the contest this year in addition to Harvard, Dartmouth, Columbia and Pennsylvania,--the original competitors. This year's competition will be unusually keen because of the fact that the University Glee Club and that of Dartmouth have each won a leg on the attractive trophy offered by the University Glee Club of New York.

The biggest feature of the contest will be the singing by each club, individually, of Edward MacDowell's spirited "War Song." This selection will probably be the chief feature in determining the judges' decision, for it forms the only common basis for comparison. Each club will also sing two other pieces, one a light classic composition and the other a college or football song. Another interesting feature, in addition to the competitive singing, will be the rendering of Kremser's Old Netherland folksong, "The Prayer of Thanksgiving," by the combined competing clubs and the University Glee Club of New York, a total of 280 voices. The participation of the University Glee Club of New York in the event will add a great deal of interest, as it is composed of one hundred voices, gathered from the graduates of forty-three American colleges and universities.

The Intercollegiate Musical Council, under whose auspices the contest is held, has obtained as judges Mr. John Hyatt Brewer, conductor of the Apollo Club of Brooklyn; Mr. Louis Koemmenick, conductor of the Mendelssohn Glee Club of New York; and Mr. Victor Herbert, composer and conductor.
