The Master Singers, a group of
seven male voices, will appear at
Tarleton on Saturday, February
18, This group, organized and on
tour for many years, has one of
the most remarkable repertoires of
current singing groups. The group
was trained by a director of the
Margquette University Choral So-
ciety and includes soloists of
national reputation.
The Master Singers have receiv-
ed. plaudits from .numerous critics
such as Herman Lexries of the
Chicago American, Glenn Dillard
Gunn of the Chicago Daily News
says "there is nothing but praise
to mention in behalf of these sing-
ing gentlemen . . . they possess a
highly individual and mellow qual-
ity of tone . ... they sing in quasi-
Russian style and their perform-
ance is full'of vitality. This effici-
ent male ensemble displayed
brand of showmanship that be-,
spoke a long experience before the
public."
Each man of the ensemble is a
highly trained and experienced
musician. The group is an unusual
ensemble of soloists, attaining the
artist's idea of group synchroniza-
tion and musical excellence.
The repertoire of songs has been
built up through the years. A for-
mer director of the Marquette Uni-
versity Choral Society has devel-
oped one of the finest libraries, of
male chorus literature in this coun-
try, and from this library the Masj
ter Singers have chosen the out-
standing compositions of various
types of music and have re-arrang-
ed them to best serve their needs.
Thus the Master Singers are able
to present their varied programs
of the best in ancient and modern
music.
Because of their great repertoire
and long co-operation together,
their co-ordination, training and
tone, their modulation, refinement,
assurance, and intonation, the
Master Singers present a rendition
of finished perfection. Their songs
are direct from their own library,
,-which includes the Classics, Bal-
lads, Negro Spirituals, Plantation
Melodies, Congs of the Sea, Novel-
ties, Operatic Selections, Musical
Comedy, Standard Popular Songs,
and Sacred Compositions. The sa-
cred compositions include songs
from the Russian Liturgy and Lat-
in Liturgy, and English and Am-
erican compositions.
The Master Singers: David John-
son, tenor; George Jernigan, ten-
or; Howard Carman, tenor; Emil
Tefiiniger, baritone; Stewart White,
baritone; Walter Hardwick, bass;
H?-i'ry L. Pusey, pianist and ac-
companist.

Colonel Tompkins—
He was suffering from cancer of
the stomach.
Col Tompkins was known for his
flowing whiskers and his criticism
of- the modern army and the in-
evitable change of the old-time
horse cavalry to the modern mo-
torized units.
Major Bender, in concluding his
brief resume of the' picturesque
life of Colonel Tompkins, recalled
a humorous occasion concerning
the old gentleman: "The colonel's
language was rather inclined to be
strong1 at times. On one occasion
some officers inquired of him why
the army was not any good, 'and he
replied that it was 'over-mechani-
zed and over-womanized.'"
The army lost a picturesque, his-
torical figure; Tarleton has lost,
one of ite best friends and boos-
ters.
