European tours and charter
membership in the Philadelphia
Opera Company preceded her ca-
reer with the Met. Miss Greer
made her Metropolitan Opera de-
but as Musetta in "La Boheme"
Nov. 30, 1942. She stayed at the
Met until 1951.
Appears as Soloist
After leaving her operatic ca-
reer, Miss Greer appeared as solo-
ist with leading symphony orches-
tras throughout the United States.
She also had a radio program for
two and a half years, spent sum-
mers on the operetta circuit and
made recordings.
Before coming to the Univer-
sity, she taught privately for three
years in New York. Although she
is teaching, she still wants to give
concerts and has recently ap-
peared in Battle Creek and in
Grand Rapids. A Grand Rapids
music critic said of her concert
that "Miss Greer has an unerring
sense of how just to sing a song,
whatever its proportions and text.
Hers is a warm, radiant voice, ev-
en in quality and always the serv-
ant of the song."

Colonial American song books
on display in Clements Library
testify, contrary to current ideas,
that music played an important
role in early American life.
The exhibit, a collection of folk
songs, church music and instruc-'
tional folders, was selected from
the library's collection by Prof. Al-
len P. Britton of the School of
Music, an authority on early Am-
erican music, for the American
Musicological Societyconvention
recently held in Ann Arbor.
Most of the scores were printed
for either school or church use.
Currently popular words, usually
folk tales or scriptures, were set
to popular melodies of the time;
also in the display, are short
compositions by American con-
