THE SUMMER festival will be
the third in the year and one half
history of the Union which was
formed in 1948 to provide those in-
terested in arts with a knowledge
of what others were doing in the
separate branches of art.
A second purpose was to pro-
vide an outlet for those inter-
ested in music, dance, drama,
writing, etc., and to give such
people an opportunity to com-
bine their efforts.
The accomplishments of the
new group have been numerous.
In addition to the two festivals
at which student compositions
were given their first airing, the
Union sponsored an all-student
production of "Murder in the Ca-
thedral" and has put out two is-
sues of a new art magazine, "Gen-
eration."
