Whitney Boy«’ Chorus
Not many are familiar with the
i fact that the Whitney Boys’ Chora*
is closely allied with this district,
Here are some interesting facts re­
, garding it. The first three members
of the Portland chorus of Whi tney
' boys were boys from this district :
i Frank Smith, son of Mr. and Mrs.
, W P. Smith of 4320 47th street;
I Richard Averill, son of Mr. and Mr*
I E. A. Averill, ">304 39th avenue, and
j David Richards.
From that small
group in less than four months the
| chorus has grown to 250, 45 of whom

In 1923 he wants a smaller
