The University Glee Club will again take part in the annual Intercollegiate Glee Club contest to be held this evening for the eleventh time in Carnegie Hall, New York City. Thirty men will sing in the Harvard chorus under the direction of E. F. Knauth Jr. '24.
The judges of the contest this year will be Madam Louise Homer, Mr, Gilbert Gabriel, music critic of the New York Sun and the New York Globe, and Dr. Walter Ramrosch, chairman. According to the rules of the contest, the songs are judged on a scale of 100, 30 points being the highest possible score for the light song, 50 for the prize song, and 20 for the college song. There being three judges, the total scale is 300.
The contestants consist of the glee clubs of Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Amherst, Dartmouth, Columbia, New York University, University of Pennsylvania Penn state, and Wesleyan.
