INSTRUMENTAL CLUBS STRESS SPECIALITY ACTS

Quartets, Magicians, Jugglers, Banjo Duet, and Pianist Offer Greatest Variety in Years

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

With new and startling individual acts, the specialties division of the Instrumental Clubs will appear before mystified audiences this year. Twenty-seven performers including a zither player have given the division new life.

An octet which will sing vocal choruses for the Gold Coast Orchestra is the largest of the special singing units. There are also two quartets, one of which will sing "Gay Nineties" medleys, and the other close harmony pieces. One soloist, Henry B. Robbins '36, will render comic songs, accompanying himself on the guitar.

A guitar solo by John P. Ayer '37, and a banjo duet by Franklin P. Whitbeck '35 are from the instrumental diversion, while Edwin G. Davis '38, will play classical selections on the piano.

A magic act with two magicians, and an act which offers the combined efforts of a fumbler, jugglers, and an unicyclist may well be the high points of the show.
