These seven are additional to the 14 recent new members

club t s autumn calendar.
The Chamber Players opened their tenth anniversary
season by performing at a club Ladies Night on October
19. It was also their first concert under their new
musical director, Miss Marta Hidy. If all their
concerts come up to the standard of what they offered
the club, we are sure they will more than maintain
the enviable reputation they have held in the past.
Except for a Mozart encore, the entire program was
drawn from works of the late 19th and 20th century --
somewhat of a departure from previous programs which
usually contained earlier works. The program was as
follows:
Warlock - Capriol Suite
