Vincent Hilles Ober, president of the National Federation of Music Clubs, announced plans for the formation of a great national chorus, to be given its public debut at the twentyfirst biennial convention of the organization in Baltimore in May, 1939. Determined not to let the grownups surpass the younger generation, Miss Helen McBride Louisville, Kentucky, chairman of the Junior Choral Committee, has stated that plans are under way for the presentation of a National Junior Chorus on the same convention program. A call has already gone forward to the heads of junior organizations in the various states to participate in the project and a suggested repertoire of choral compositions has been selected. The plan calls for the formation of individual choruses in each of the 2210 junior clubs, the outstanding members of these groups to be selected for appearance in state choruses on state convention junior day programs. From these state choruses representatives will then be selected for appearance at the national biennial in Baltimore.

As an extra spur to the enthusiasm of the juniors, who are approximately 200,000 in number and who range in age from 5 to 18 years, Dr. Edgar Stillman-Kelley, dean of American composers, has promised to write a new song to be sung by the juniors at the Baltimore biennial. Other selections to be presented by the National Junior Chorus on the program will be announced in early spring, so that the junior clubs will have a full year to practice the repertoire before assembling at Baltimore. Dr. Kelley who will write the junior song, is the husband of a former president of the National Federation of Music Clubs and has for many years regularly attended biennial conventions of the organization.
