CHURCH SINGING IS HIT BY CHOIRS, SAYS DEAN Lutkin of Northwestern Sees Need of Stressing Religion Above Artistry for Musicians. By the Assoclated Press. CHICAGO, November 1. — Trained choirs have taken the life out of church singing by congregations and | « are defeating their own original pur- pose, declares Dean Peter C. Lutkin of the College of Music of North- ter, has 70 western University. Dr. Lutkin this Fall established a college course for church cholir leaders. “A church choir should stimulate and not discourage congregational singing,” sald Dr. Lutkin, “but the average professional church musiclan looks upon hymn singing as a bore. This attitude is all wrong. But it will persist until there are training schools for church musicians which stress religion above artistry. And the church fitself should supply such training."” —_— No. 10 Downing street, the official residence of the British prime minis- 70 rooms.
