Mechanicville—Through the operation of the Parent-Teachers Associations of Schools 1 and 2, the A Capella Choir, comprising 90 pupils of the fifth and sixth grades of the Mechaniclvlle Public Schools, will soon be furnished choir robes of wine colored broadcloth.

Material for the robes has al­ready been purchased, and several have been made. The robes are full fashioned, with white collars. The rich color of the robes is very effective, and the appearance of the choir is expected to be pleasing.

Decision to cooperate with School 2 PTA, by assuming half of the financial responsibility for the robes, was decided upon at last night's meeting of School 1 PTA in the High School auditor­ium. The project was conceived some time ago by the School 2 As­sociation.

John N. Hayes, superintendent of sdhools, addressed last night's meet­ing on the "Regents Inquiry." An open forum, pertaining to the sub­ject of the address, was conducted by Donald Plngrey, principal of School 1. Mrs. Leon Braunatein, was program chairman.

Community singing was enjoyed, with Mrs. Walter Heywood at the piano.

Mrs. Richard D. Wright, presi­dent of School 1 PTA, presided at the business meeting. The unit planned a card party in the near future for the benefit of the choir robe fund. Mrs. David Sklute was named chairman.

Members also voted to cooperate with School 2PTA in promoting a City Hobby Show; and to give their support to the card party to be sponsored by the School 2 group Feb. 18, for the choir robe fund. OES Rehearsal
