              all students interested in seeing music festival resumed next year are asked to attend a mass meet ing friday at 4 p.m in room 302 of christmas saucon hall bob croneberger 58 last year's student co ordinator made the plea for all to attend so that festival will not be a thing for history books but an activity for the calendar of 1959 croneberger noted that so much talk has been flying around campus about festival that fesitval personnel of last year want to see just how much of that talk is sincere the meeting will be conducted by last year's officers headed by croneberger jim barney bill murray jack parker curt schollenberger and larry wright all of these with the exception of wright are in their final year at lehigh croneberger noted however that this does not mean we are going to forget it festival as anyone in the organization will tell you is something that cannot be forgotten once a student becomes associated with festival and its traditions he will do his utmost to see that these traditions are carried on this is what the staff is go ing to do — our utmost he said that the problem of music festival boils down to the fact that it cannot be produced without men to plan wire hammer nails and set lights the main body of the festival organization must be organized well in advance croneberger said one of the most important things to remember is that in order to insure continuity we must organize and organize now at friday's meeting the group plans to lay the groundwork for electing officers for the remainder of this year and next year these officers will be chosen from members of lehigh's musical organiza tions as well as from the people interested in festival for the rest of this semester last year's officers will explain all ac tivities of music festival to the new officers they will aid the new men in making a week-by-week plan for the festival all aspects will be considered because of the lack of veterans next year music festival would have virtually no chance of success without the aid and advice of last year's officers croneberger noted the difficult time experienced last year after a one-year break he pointed out too that last year there were more returning festival personnel than there will be next year but with planning this year next year's troup should experience virtually little diffi culty the festival meeting will also be attended by prof albert rights and prof jonathan elkus prof robert a cutler was also scheduled to attend but will be out of town for the day elkus croneberger noted has expressed a great deal of interest in festival he has asked all his band members to attend the meeting croneberger said that although rights will not be directely as sociated with festival next year he like the seniors has agreed to do all he can to help organize for 1959 cutler the glee club director will resume his festival duties his see seniors page 4 last week nor did he know that a town representative was sitting
