Glee Club<br />
Under tlie capable leadership of its president,<br />
Tafl\' Knowlton, the Glee Club has contri\ed to be<br />
one of the most popular activities at <strong>Mount</strong> <strong>Vernon</strong>.<br />
The "Crescendos", a singing group composed of selected<br />
girls from the Glee Club, have performed at<br />

all of our dances and on other occasions such as the<br />
Christmas Program.<br />
On Founder's Day the Glee Club sang many<br />
familiar songs. Perhaps the most impressive of all<br />
their performances was the Christmas Program. The<br />
setting was a winter firesidescene complete with a<br />
Christmas tree and all the trimmings. Dressed in<br />
ski clothes, the club created a realistic atmosphere<br />
which was thoroughly appreciated by the audience<br />
and its homeward bound girls. It was obvious that<br />
a great deal of hard work had been done to make<br />
it a fine evening.<br />
During the month of March the Glee Club participated<br />
with St. James School Glee Club in a joint<br />
concert. The boys, as guests at <strong>Mount</strong> <strong>Vernon</strong>,<br />
added excitement to the campus. In April, Valley<br />
Forge Military Academy invited the <strong>Mount</strong> <strong>Vernon</strong><br />
Glee Club to a concert at their school. The club<br />
presented a variety of popular songs, and the girls<br />
were greatly impressed with both the cadets and the<br />
campus.<br />
At the end of the year the Glee Club sang at<br />
the traditional Baccalaureate Service and the<br />
"Crescendos" highlighted their <strong>1964</strong> year with songs<br />
at the Commencement Dance.<br />
It has been a successful and eventful year for<br />
the Glee Club and for Mme. Brodenova, their advisor.<br />
Hard work, enthusiasm, and love of music<br />
have been the keys to this success.<br />
