TWO CONTEST CONCERTS

BY YOUNG PEOPLE

Two charity concerts took place at the Queen Elizabeth School last Friday, one early and one later in the evening. These were in the nature of contests, all the entrants being schoolchildren or students.

As the functions were organised somewhat hurriedly, the standard of per- formance was generally not very high, and one gained the impression that some entrants had not been well prepared by their teachers. But as the aim was largely charitable, the events must also be judged in the spirit in which they were per- formed.

The adjudicators were Dr S. Thou art near."
