Barber Shop Quartet To Be Nucleus jRu,,,a Agrtti,Afttr 4 Ye, To Return u. s. ships For Army s Recreation Music Agenda By JANE EADS WASHINGTON The army hopes Its program of promoting leisure-time barbershop quartet singing will make GIs the world over music conscious. A Texas boy, Capt. H. H. Copeland, chief of Army Special Services' music section, hopes to get a quartet started in every service post and club In this country and abroad. He believes the barbershop quartet will be the nucleus around which the army will be able to build a continuing recreational music program. "You begin with a quartet and finally you get a glee club, then a chorus." he told me. "Soon we'll have everybody singing in the Army." Maj. Gen. Russel B. Reynolds, chief of Special Seiv ices. says that through the pro gram a maximum number of m.l diers can be reached with a mini mum of equipment and supplies. Cooperating in the project on a "partnership" basis is the Society for the Preservation and Encour agement of Barbershop Singing in America. Inc., an international organization founded in 1938 hy Owen C. Cash of Tulsa, Okla. Through the society's interna tional president, O. H. King Cole, of Manitowoc. Wis., the society has offered to the Army the serv ices of iis approximately 600 chapters and 30,000 members. .They will assist in developing barbershop singing among Army personnel. Advisers from local community chapters will assist the post special services officers and service club directors In or ganizing quartets, choruses, mu sic festivals and other special programs and in helping to train Army leaders. For its part, among other equipment items the Army will put out a four-record training al bum consisting of SPEBQ songs, among which will be "Sweetheart of Sigma Chi." "Aft er Dark." "Tell Me Why," "The Old Songs" and "Coney Island Baby." One side of each record will contain the individual tenor, lead, baritone and bass parts from which the soldier can learn his own part of the song. The other side, a rendition of the same song, enables the soldier to sin? the number with the full quartet after he has learned his part." 'For the energetic young men In today's Army it is necessaiy to provide wholesome, satisfac tory off-duty recreation In ap proved environment," says Gen. Reynolds.
