Joseph S. Mullen, '28, is president of the glee club and has arranged the reheareal hours to fit in with the program of the freshmen and upper classmen. With an unusgally large freshman class this year, the club is drawing largely from the yearlings for recruits. With the glee club, the Georgetown Collegians, a_studegt orchestra and the 50-piece R. O. T. C. band, there 18 no lack of music at the Hilltop for any occasion, no matter how formal.
