A boat trip to New York is on the books for the Harvard Glee Club when it goes to sing at the Brooklyn Academy of Music on Tuesday, November 27.

Some distinguished artists are on the schedule at the Academy this year, including Lawrence Tibbet, baritone; Lily Pons, soprano; Yehudi Menuhin, violinist; and Richard Crooks, tenor.

Sixty men are to make the trip, and this group, in addition to singing at the Academy, may present a program over a nation-wide radio network from New York on the following day. A well-selected program will be sung, including among others the following works: Holst, "A Dirge for Two Veterans"; Sullivan, "Choruses from Iolan-the"; Vittoria, "Jesu Dulcis"; Allegri, "Miserere"; Handel, "Let Their Celestial Concerts All Unite".
