O, For the Wings of a Dove, by Mendelssohn, and The Sleigh, ar- As a fitting c | Wrangell. Both numbers were par- ticularly remarkable for the clear high notes of the girl's voices and the even quick tempo sustained throughout the pieces.

The festival this year is the largest one | held to date, Miss Coffin stated. Last year only Juneau and Ket- chikan participated and then only 40 members participated. This year a group of 100 students played or sang in the festival.

The supervisors plan to affiliate with the National Musical Conference, Miss Coffin stated.
