ALL-SOLDIER CHOIR OF COMPANY A REHEARSES FOR CONCERT: Army men of the soldiers' chorus of Company A spend an average of three hours a week rehearsing under Bill Sawyer's direction for a concert they will give on Aug. 15 in Hill auditorium. In addition to the summer concert, the men will present songs and skits on Army life in a half-hour radio program over WJR this Saturday and again on Aug. 7. A large percentage of the men were members of the chorus when Company A presented its musical comedy, "Nips in the Bud" in the spring. In the above picture Bill Sawyer is shown at the right directing the chorus in one of the songs being prepared for the Aug. 15 concert.

Customers at Goodyear's Department Store, 122 S. Main, are finding that frequently they are getting songs with their gift-wrapping service during the pre-Christmas period. The reason is that several members of the Ann Arbor High School A Cappella Choir have been employed as gift-wrappers. Other girls also employed for wrapping have been worked into the singing phases.
