German
Confers
The two hour conference with members of the Bundestadt
in Bonn, Germany was a highlight of the Chapel Choir's tour
of Europe last summer.
Dr. Von Merketz, minister of the Federal Republic
under the Christian Democratic Union government of
Western Germany and head of the small German party;
and Dr. Von Lievermann, chair
man of the Foreign Relations
Committee of the CDU and right
hand man of Chancellor Konrad
Adenauer, spoke to the group and
answered questions on the West
German government.
Dr. Von Merketz and Dr. Von
Lievermann gave a general out
line of the government including
its aims and propositions.
Robert Steele, sophomore in
arts and letters from State Col
lege, was impressed with the
straightforward answers given by
the two men.
Steele felt that the audiences
were extremely appreciative.
They often came up with tears in
their eyes to express how much
they had enjoyed the concert. The
association with the English
people showed the fallacy of the
"reserve" idea so often attached
to the English people, Steele said.
Tour Called Exceptional
Mrs. Willa W. Taylor, director
of the Choir, described the six
week tour Of six countries as a
most unusual experience. Includ
ed in thg group who toured Eng
land, FrAnce, Italy, German y,
Switzerland, and Holland were 59
members of lag year's Choir, 40
of whom are on campus this fall;
13 alumni, and the chaperones,
Mrs. Taylor and Mrs. Georgia K.
Selsam, assistant in music.
• Singing was the pentral hub of
the tour and around that every
thing revolved. Singing engage
ments enabled the group to see
parts of the countries that are or
dinarily omitted in regular tours.
The group presented ten concerts,
seven in Great Britain and four
on the continent in addition to
singing at a church service in
Paris.
The trip was so successful that
the Choir is considering the pos
sibility of organizing another such
I toy for the summer of 1957, Mrs.
Taylor said.
Mrs. Taylor amusingly told of
the various "schools of culture"
that arose within the group
whereby the more knowing un
dertook to inform and educate—
other members. She was gratified
to hear the various comments
from the group concerning return
