"During the tour, I think the
Glee Club achieved a blending, and
feeling of unity through music,
which will give our work aimore
mature quality," publicity director
Gary Pence, '61, said in evaluating
the Glee Club's summer tour of
Europe.
The Glee Club, numbering 44,
traveled to London, Paris, West
Berlin,.Amsterdam, Copenhagen
and Llanglollen, Wales. Combin-
ing sightseeing with business, the
travelers gave extensive concerts,
competing in-and winning-the
International Musical Eisteddfod
in Llanglollen.
"This was the high point," Pence
said. The only college group in
the adult male choir division, the
Glee Club sang-two required num-
bers, Palestrina's "Confitemini
Domino" and "El Grillo" by Joas-
quin de Pres. Then, for the selec-
tion by a native composer, they
chose "Stomp Your Foot, from
Aaron Copland's "The Tender
Land," winning a trophy and 100
pounds. The, Glee Club was pro-
nounced "a thoroughly competent
choir-Young and adventurous."
Deep in 'Tradition
The Eisteddfod belongs to the
rich Welsh heritage of choral sing-
ing, reaching far back into tradi-
tion, but the International Musical
Eisteddfod, in which 15,000 singers
competed, was organized only ten
years ago, Pence explained.
Continuing to Stratford-on-
Avon, the Glee Club performed on
the grounds of the theatre there,
"for a large bunch of basking sun-'
bathers." Paris was devoted to the
Latin Quarter and sightseeing.
In West Berlin, they gave a con-
cert at the Free University and
managed a visit to the Russian
zone. "I walked around for several
hours and wasn't bothered by any-
body,"' Pence recalled, but con-
trasted the archaic, outmoded at-
mosphere with that of West Ber-
lin which he described as a "bust-
ling, American-type city."
Gave Concert
In Denmark the Glee Club
stayed at a youth hostel, and gave
a charity concert for the re-
habilitation of crippled children.
The concert, a surprise to the
group, was performed between the
magician and polar bear acts of a
circus!
Before leaving the continent for
the Scandinavian countries, the
Glee Club traveled extensively and
sang in Holland, Belgium, Ger-

many and Denmark, staying in
hotels, private homes and student
accommodations. On the way to
Sweden, they stopped at Vispy, on
the island of Gotland, the only
remaining walled town in North-
ern Europe. ,There, they sang in'
the Dom Kyrke, the main cathed-
ral "where the people expressed
their appreciation by waving hand-
kerchiefs and music books.
"The greatest value for us was
meeting people on a personal level,
augmentedby the joy of singing
swap
for groups which were always so
responsive and enthusiastic. And,
at Llanglollen, even if we hadn't
won the prize, it would have been
worthwhile to meet choir mem-
bers from all over the world,"
Pence summarized.
The trip was paid for with Glee
Club funds collected over several
years (with nominal personal con-
tributions) and organized through
the Institute for European Studies,
which handled the publicity, itin-
erary, and other arrangements.

NOVAK *"MARCH
The Soviet .moon rocket, Lunik
II, has raised much debate among
scientists regarding the validity
of Russia's latest space claim.'
"One easy way exists to find
if the 'Russians really hit the
moon," William E; Fensler, re-
search engineer and Prof. Keeve
M. Siegel of the- engineering
college said recently.
If the Lunik radio. transmis-
sions were pulse transmissions,
the pulse coming from the rocket
could be compared with those re-
flected from the moon's surface
and then returned to earth. Then
the time span between these two
pulses should have decreased as
the rocket approached the lunar
surface, finally becoming indis-
cernible when it actually hit the
moon, they explained.
It would be rather difficult to
fake this, they added, because the
return pulse would have a differ-
ent shape than the transmitter
pulse. Such a difference could not
be concealed because "it seems
clear from scientific literature
that the United States and Brit-
ain lead the Russians in the scat-
tering of electro-magnetic energy
off the moon, and, as a result, it
would be very hard for them to
deceive us in such an analysis."
Speculating further,, they said
if the rocket were observed from a
long enough radio line, and the
moon's radar echo checked from
the same base line, Lunik II's
angular position could be clearly
a s e e r t a i n e d. Ultimately, this
would have allowed us to a defl-
nitive statement as to whether
the rocket did hit the moon, since
our knowledge of the moon co-
ordinates at the prescribed im-
pact time would lead to an accu-
rate location of Lunik II just be-
fore impact.
Prof. Siegel heads the Univer-
sity Radiation Laboratory, and is
a memberdof'the Scientific Advi-
sory Board of. the United States
Air Force and a consultant for the
A d van c e d Research Projects.
HIT OR MISS?-Russian authorities, before the- Soviet Union's
announcement that it had landed a rocket on the moon, had
approximated the landing area. Composite pictures of the moon
are useful in formulating scientific hypotheses.
