All members are required to pay a fee of $2.00, payable at time of registration. This student organization originated as a body to care for the purely social requirements of the Summer Session.

Dances, banquets, teas, musicales, lectures, variety programmes, athletic tournaments embracing golf, tennis, badminton, horseshoes, soft-ball, and table tennis, all fall within the Association Executive's scope. On the more serious side the Executive deals with student resolutions, fees, matters of constitution; in reality, all ^matters pertaining to student life at the Summer Session. It serves as a liaison group between the student body and the various governing bodies of the University and helps to provide a proper balance between academic pursuit and recreation. The Summer Session Students' Association holds at least two general meetings each summer. The Executive meets at least weekly during the summer and as often as is deemed necessary throughout the year. 1950 OFFICERS President V. Montaldi. Secretary D. A. Smith Treasurer Miss G.

With its beautiful surroundings, art gallery, theatre, museum and workshops the University campus offers a splendid centre for students seeking both serious and recreational study in the arts. To this already established programme the Department of University Extension this year makes an important addition—courses in operatic music and in German Lieder literature. The inclusion of music in a fine arts programme is not only natural but highly desirable, and the Department is glad that the time has come when it is able thus to extend the scope of its activities. Festival Week Highlight of the summer programme is the annual Festival Week which is held at the conclusion of the various courses. The Festival, to which the public is invited, consists of displays of student work in music, the arts, handicrafts and theatre. Bach Bi-Centennial Commemoration As part of its summer fine arts programme the Department of University Extension is presenting Harry Adaskin, violinist, and Frances Marr, pianist, in a series of concerts which will commemorate the death of Johann Sebastian Bach on July 28th, 1750. There will be five concerts, between July 24th and July 28th, in which the artists will perform Bach's Sonatas for Violin and Piano, his Sonatas for Violin Alone, and the three Concertos for Violin with piano accompaniment.

SUMMER SCHOOL OF THE THEATRE July 3rd to Avigust 12th The national theatre of Canada is essentially an amateur theatre. It is to be found in the community drama groups, the university and school drama groups, and the Little Theatre clubs which exist in all parts of the Dominion. It is to be found in the drama festivals which unite all groups in a common bond —the love of fine work in the theatre. From the ranks of the amateur theatre, at its best, will gradually emerge a professional theatre for Canada. Responsibility for fine work in the theatre rests equally with actors, directors, stagecraft and production artists and committees. As in any art, fine work in the theatre depends upon talent and enthusiasm developed by training and experience. Through its Summer School of the Theatre the University of British Columbia seeks to provide opportunities for this essential training and experience.

The growing number of symphony orchestras, the increased recognition of Canadian composers and artists, and the recent formation of distinguished Canadian opera companies all bear testimony to this fact. In presenting music as a part of its summer arts programme this year the Department of University Extension has chosen to emphasize opera. It is doing so in the hope that it may encourage the development of an opera company in the west similar to those that exist in Halifax and Toronto. The course in German Lieder Literature will provide additional important training to the singers who might eventually compose such a company. These courses will have a special appeal to singers and pianists, they will also be of interest to the many music lovers who desire to know more about opera. Opera Appreciation—July 3rd-August 9th. Discussion and illustration of entire operas of the general repertoire.
