Transcript	SECOND QUARTETTE:— Marjorie Spafford, Grace Thayer, Sybil Buzick, Jane Dillon. FIRST QUARTETTE:— Robert Nelson, Jack Titchey, Mae Reybourn, Nubar Kazarian. SAMUEL HUNGERFORD, Violin Instructor Once upon a time one string quartette was sufficient to provide outlet to the enthusiasm of players of stringed instruments here at the college. This last semester, however, illustrated the need for more, and saw the organization of a second group. Perhaps next semester will find a third ensemble organized, for several music students are anxious to take part. Because of the quantities of charming ensemble music written particularly for string quartettes and because of the easily-transported number of players, string quartettes are quite deservedly popular. The two quartettes have, at various times throughout the school year, presented programs over the radio, for clubs, in churches, and at social functions. CHAMBER MUSIC THE string quartette is the finest example of chamber music. It is composed of two violins, a 'cello and a viola. The great range from the lowest pitch of the 'cello to the highest note on the violin, the infinite harmonic possibilities, the uniformity of tone and technical similarity of execution make it one of the most interesting and important of all musical forms. Due to the independence of the players, effects of every variety are attainable, and many violinists would rather play music written for the string quartette than violin solos or violin and piano music. This preference exists by reason of the fact that the combination of the instruments overcomes the technical limitations of one without losing the characteristics of the strings. Many years ago much of the quartette music written was such that any individual possessing average technical skill was able to play it. Because of this, from the earliest days of violin playing, musicians have assembled to play string quartettes. In spite of the fact that in modern times the music written for quartettes has been radically changed, authorities still agree that for beauty and style, the later quartets of Beethoven have never been surpassed. Beginning in the fall semester, a string quartette assembled under the leadership of Mr. Samuel Hungerford. Later in the year, however, two quartettes were formed and many other students are anxious to participate. From time to time these quartettes are presented over the radio, at clubs, churches and similar organizations. The members are: Quartette No. 1—Robert Nelson and Nubar Kazarian, violins,- Jack Ritchey, viola,- Mae Reyburn, 'cello. Quartette No. 2—Marjorie Spafford and Jane Dillon, violins,- Grace Thayer, viola,- Sybil Buzick, 'cello. NINETY-SIX
