JLocals Attended
Eugene Function
^4 Six Brookings couples went
to
Eugene last Saturday to attend
the Eugene SPEBSQSA charter’s
Parade of Quartettes. Appear
ing on the program there besides
the Eugene chapter chorus were
12 of the best quartettes in the
west, from as far away as San
Francisco in the south to Port
Angeles in the North.
These exponents of the art of
Barbershop singing had the au
dience of 1100 applaunding wild
ly and were forced to do many
encores.
The Brookingsites had trouble
in naming their favorites of the
evening since all the groups were
extraordinary in their partisular
style of singing. The ‘After-Glow’
or after theatre party for bar
bershoppers lasted until the wee
hours and even then the listeners
hadn’t had enough of that har
mony as only barbershoppers can
sing it.
Making the trip from here were
Mr. and Mrs. Bert DeMoss, Mr.
and Mrs. oss Putnam, Mr .and
Mrs. Charles Grayshel, Mr. and
.Mrs. Emil Moore, Mr. and Mrs,
Lloyd Moss and Mr. and Mrs
Bob Perkins.
All were convinced that once
anyone attends their first bar
bershop quartette show, he is a
dyed-in-the-wool fan from that
moment on, and would be willing
to travel miles to see and hear
the “sweetest music this side of
heaven.”
Locals Plan "Big” Night
Brookings Chapter of the So
ciety for the Preservation and
Encouragement of Barbershop
Quartette Singing in America is
putting its members through the
final ‘tune-up’ period prior to the
“big night’’ when the local chap
ter will receive its charter, that
being October 29.
Mrs. Lloyd Morris, who has
been directing the group in prac
tice sessions has put her stamp
of approval on the manner in
which the chorus has learned
numbers to be sung at the pro-|
gram following the presentation
of the charter.
Appearing on this program, to
be open to the public, will be the
famous Klamath Falls chapter l
chorus. This group, under able
direction of Johnny Houston, en-
