from April 23-28. .An Alumni performance and dress rehearsal will
be given on .April 21 • .A special high school per•
formance and dress rehearsal wlll be presented on April 22. The

Music for the show was com-
posed by_ Frederick Loew~. The fll'st performance of this
musical wnH on ]larch 13, 1947, at the Ziegfeld Theater In New York
City.
"Brigadoon" is the story of two Americans, Tommy and Jeff, who
get lost in the Highlands while hunting. They come upon the little
village of Brigadoon which they are unable to find on any map. As
they begin to get acquainted with the villagers, Tommy falls in
love with Fiona. Eventually they dis-cover that Brigadoon is an
en-chanted village which only appears for one day every hundred
years. Harry Beaton, a villager, almost destroys the miracle by
going out of the village after an 111-starred love affair. In due
time Tomm and Jeff return to New York because they felt they
couldn't believe in the miracle enough to stay in Brig-adoon, Once
in New York, however, Tomllly finds that he can't forget Fiona.
·
The score of "Brigadoon" in-cludes such songs as "It's Almost
Like Being in Love," "I'll Go Home with Bonnie Jean," "Brigadoon,"
"Waitin' for My Darlin'" "Heather on the Hill" and "My Mother's
Wedding Day."

Ithacan agreed to feature the dor. mltory with the highest

who actu-ally gave blood In proportion to the tot.al number of

commented that the "Seneca Stompers" were "one of the finest
college bands he had ever heard. He nicknamed the J.C. group "The
Redcoats" because of the flashy red vests they wear ... On tbe

snack bar has proved to be one of the most influential
institutions within Ithaca College. We can shout all we want about
coffee in paper cups and general congestion, but there's no getting
around the fact that since it was ushered in last year the snack
bar has grown into a tradition partly akin to the English coffee

The college has always needed a coffee house. Before last year,
the student who had some bull .that had to be shot would walk
sheep-ishly by the Olympia or the Cozy Corner hoping ·to find a
listener. Usually there was a listener in one of those hang-outs,
but we coffee cup philosophers all know that it takes longer to
spout off on a' sub-ject of any proportions than it does to drink a
cup of coffee-no matter how thick the coffee hap-pened to be that

similar arrangement, here when phy-eds met at the "Cozy" and the
speech-drama-radio-etc. all met at the "0." Now our version of the
coffee house is not a separating element as the old English ones
were. A phy-ed (student enrolled in the Department of Physical
Ed-ucation) frequently finds hlm.selt drawn into a conversation
with a group of drama students and vice versa. By bringing the
school to-gether, our snack bar does all year long what SCAMPERS
does only part of the year. People have a chance to make friends

School No. 66 her life progressed quite will be Craig McHenry and
the normally and uneventfully. After she graduated from grade
school, Claire entered Wellington Mepham High School in Bellmore,
Long Island. In high school she took part in many activities which
included sports, writing :t:or the school newspaper, (she became
editor) and play-ing in the school band and orchestra. In spite of
all of her extra-curricula activities, Claire made the National
Honor Society.
For several years Claire had been interested in music. She had
been taking piano lessons when she entered high school, and enjoyed
playing the musical organizations. During her junior year she
started to play the oboe and found that she liked it very much. At
this point in her life, Claire dec.ided that she would like to go
on with music as her life's work. She started to make inquiries as
to the best place to go in order to further her musical education.
Several places were suggested, including Fredonia, Potsdam and
Ithaca. In September of 1952 Claire came to Ithaca to take Music
education with oboe as her major.
Here at I. C. she got into the swing of things immediately by
joining the band, orchestra, and marching band. Her freshman year
she made Adelphi, and this· year Oracle and Who's Who. Her
sopho-more year she was the vice-president of the class. Claire is
a member of S.A.I. and takes an active part in such musical
organizations as the I. C. Vocal Ensemble, the I. C. Strauss Wind
Ensemble, and is a member of Ithaca student chapter of the NYSSMA.
During 1955 she was in the orchestra which played for Scampers and
Trojan Women (smile). Claire is a member of W.C.C. and for two
years, officially, and one year, unofficially, was a counselor at
Frosh Camp.
In September of 1955 what is perhaps the most important event of
her life took place. She married Dennis Horn who is a graduate of
Ithaca College. She intends to teach in California by September of
1957. Claire believes that if she had to go through her whole life
again there wouldn't be too many changes made.
EDWIN DANNER HARBAUGH: Ed was born on April 25, 1934 in a town
by the name of York,
Pennsylvania. He attended William Penn High School in York and
graduated in 1952. Since junior high school, Ed had been interested
in music. In fact, he thought of little else as a profession. While
in high school,. Ed played in the band and orchestra. His major
interest was in the French Horn, but he also played the cornet. In
high school he too became a member of the National Honor
Society.
The band director at Ed's high school (graduate of I. C.)
suggested that he come to Ithaca to take music education. The
September follow-ing his graduation from high school Ed did just
that. He came, but he did more than learn to blow a horn. He became
a member of Adelphi and like Claire was voted to Oracle and Who's
Who this year. Ed belongs to Kappa Gamma Psi and is the president
of the fraternity. He is also the pledge master and alumni
secretary. In 1954-55 Ed was the president of the junior class. For
three years he has been a mmiber of the NYSSMA Sectional Music
Festival at Ithaca College and is now the student chairman of the

Letters To The Editor Con't.
I'm recommending that Delta Kappa come to the rescue of the
students of Ithaca College once more, The school bells have stopped
ringing and once again no one knows for sure what the correct time
is. Delta Kappa came to the rescue in the past with their alarm
clock system of calling time and even though it's a bit old
fashioned it seems to b~ very efficient.

The program lacks co-ordination, organization, and
listenability. It is designed primarily to entertain the children
at the Reconstruction home. This is a worthwhile ambi-tion. But as
a program and as a show, the project falls flat. The performers
need more rehearsal time, judging from the perform-ance. The

main fault seems to be cen-tered around no scripted material.
Pacing and timing are off. These faults could be corrected by

this program might easily rise to its early expectations.
