That th teste of the public ia be

sic la shown lu ths Increasing quality
of broadcast music. One of the sev
eral means through which this chance
kaa been brought about Is In the uni
versities where deeper appreciittinn
of greet music Is constantly being
cnulred by the student."
In commenting on th "Messiah,"
John J. anriiburjr, drsn of the school
of music, elated that Handel's com
position holds the same place In
church music that the Bible holds in
religion, that Hhakespenre holds In
literature, and the constitution in pol
itics, lis believes that intimate
knowledge of the "Messiah" is Just
aa important to tbe educated man a.
the Bible, Shakespeare or the con
stitution. "I would feel very disappointed to
find student who wss graduating
from the university and did not know
the 'Messlnh' " Dean l.sudshury said.
Tbe work of the polvnhonle choir
has attracted wide attention during i
unique experiment in giving trained
Instruction In choral work to all stu
dents who wish to participate. The
choir la divided Into three sections.
The first la made of persons whose
ability admits them to knowledge of
musical literature of a hkh order.
These are not necessarily trained
inters.
Th second group la composed of
II students who csn carry s tune and
