Clarke Schools Music Program Aids Statewide Rural Schools
The Clarke Schools program, appointed this year for art music under Luther A. Richman of Richmond, proves successful and inspires musical events across Virginia. In Clarke county 13 rural schools held a May commencement with field and track events, while Miss Rose MacDonald urged a musical program at Berryville High School. Songs from various countries, costumes, and performances by Marvin Chapel pupils in Highland dress highlighted the day, with Gay Denny and Francis Chapman introducing the program named a musical album. Attendees enjoyed a Roosevelt favorite, Home On The Range, and classic tunes like Old Black Joe and Dixie. The program opened with Onward, Christian Soldiers and closed with The Star Spangled Banner, plus an afternoon of singing, games, and exhibits showcasing natural resources.
