By reversing its decision of several weeks ago the Faculty yesterday afternoon granted permission to the University Musical Clubs to participate in a joint war-charity concert with Yale and Princeton at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel, New York City, on Saturday evening, April 13. Members of the clubs will leave Cambridge at 1 o'clock on the above date and will disband for the vacation that night, after the concert.
This entertainment will be an innovation, as it will be the first time that the Glee and Instrumental Clubs of Yale, Princeton and the University have played in a joint concert. Furthermore, the performance will take the place of the annual Intercollegiate Glee Club Meet, which was abandoned this year on account of the war.
The concert will be for the benefit of the Armenian and Syrian relief, and is under the direction of Mrs. Oliver H. Harriman. A feature of the evening will be the singing of Madame Alda and Miss Fitziu of the Chicago Grand Opera Company. The concert will be followed by dancing. Tickets, which will be placed on sale in New York this week, are $5 each, boxes $100.
Gave Concert Last Night.
Last evening a concert was given by the University Glee and Instrumental Clubs at the Colonial Club, Cambridge. Dancing followed the completion of the musical program.
