FOREWORD HE Oracle is one of the first extra-curricular activities with which the stud­ T ents are approached each fall. The Oracle, 1944-45, opened its subscrip­ tion campaign with the Dream Fantasia assembly, and followed this up with a week of intensive salesmanship. This year the magazine carried more pages than it ever had before. Features pertaining to school, community and national events rose to take their place be­ side the fiction. Comments from the National Scholastic Press Association have been increasingly favorable. This critical service has awarded the Oracle first class honors and a rating of "excellent." We received further recognition from the Na­ tional Tuberculosis Association for being one of 127 schools in twenty-eight states to receive an honor certificate for an article concerning the sale of Christmas seals.

  • History of Barbershop
    HISTORY OF BARBERSHOP By David Krause and David Wright Definition of barbershop harmony. Read: Definition of Barbershop Harmony, from the Forward of the Contest and Judging Handbook. The Purpose Of This Course. We will attempt to trace the roots and the evolution of barbershop harmony from well before its actual beginnings up to the present. We will try to answer these questions: What were the tides of history which spawned the birth of the barbershop quartet, and what environment allowed this style of music to flourish? What were its musical forerunners? What are its defining characteristics? What other types of music were fostered contemporaneously, and how did they influence the growth of quartet singing? Which styles are similar, and how are they similar? How did the term "barbershop" arise? How long did the historical era of the barbershop quartet last? What other kinds of music sprang forth from it? Why did the style eventually need preservation? How was SPEBSQSA formed, and how did it become a national movement? What other organizations have joined the cause? How have they coped with the task of preservation? Are current day efforts still on course in preserving the style? How has the style changed since the Society was formed? We will spend the next few hours contemplating and attempting to answer these questions. Overtones. As barbershoppers, we are very conscious of the "ringing" effect which complements our singing. We consider it our reward for singing well- defined pitches in tune. The fact that a tone produced by a voice or an instrument is accompanied by a whole series of pitches in addition to the fundamental one which our ear most easily detects has been known for centuries.
