Entertain S'side Community Concert Workers

Officially opening the 1956-57 campaign, the Summerside Com- munity Concert Association enter- tained workers in the organization last night at a dinner at Mulberry Lodge.

R Ross Maclfenzie. President of the Association, announced that Mrs. Bruce Allbright will be the office manager for the campaign and will be assisted by Miss Jes- sie Bingham. They will be work- ing at the campaign headquarters at Brace Maclfay Co. Ltd., Furni- ture Department.

Mr. MacKenzle told the workers that the artists which are brought to Summerside by community con- certs are of a quality that makes lmcmbership in the organization a , genuine privilege. "no other organi- ' zation in town could possibly bring 'such musicians here because the 1 cost would be prohibitive." he

said.

He said that there would be at least four concerts during the com- ing season. the last of which would lbe the famed ccncertmen, who 4 will appear here in April.

Mrs. Creclman MacArthur. camp- aign chairman, also addressed the meeting.

Mr. Alan Bunce, community con- cert representative from New York was not able to reach Summerside from New Glasgow, N. S., due to weather conditions but will be at
