The forearm was cut In two halcs by the saw that penetrated well up toward tha elbow. With a college bearing which hurled defiance at the wintry blasts that hovered outsldo, the aweet singing Oberlln College Glee club held tho eager attention of a large audience of local music lovers and alumni of the historic little Ohio nehool at the Flrct Congregational church last evening. The singers were strong in volume, capable of producing effective low tones at the proper time, able to carry difficult rarts without faltering, and at all times bearing up- with tlie manly carnuge ana determination which makea a co'Iege vocal organlaatlon a success. Their rendi tion of an original muulcy waa especially good, having that rare touch where each change of melody blended nuturally with that whtih. followed. A burlesque orchestra was given very enthuslBKtii-iilly as the second part of the program. Tho four sullor lads with their quaint sea songs were decidedly winning. As a finale the club gave an tmpreasivs rendition of the oberlln college eong, dur ing the singing of which all the local alumul and those who attended the con cert from oot In the state arose to their feet as a mark of repect and honor to their alma msler. The club did not arrive until i;20 o clock, so the luncheon which was to have been given In their honor at tho University club by the local alumni had to be railed off. Immediately after their arrival the slngera were hurried to the church for the concert, which began at S o'clock, the scheduled time. They were welcomed at the depot by a local committee of Oberlln alumni, Herbert Pmalla, Raymond Hay ward, C. L. Mattaon, Harley G. Moor head and Homer Searle. Following the concert an Informal re ception was held at the church, when the local alumni and their friends extended the youthful songsters a western greeting, during which time hand clasps played an important part of tho occasion and old remembrances of college days were the principal tuples of conversation. The club left at 12:40 this morning for lie Kalb. 111., where they w Ul give a con cert this evening.
