Return Of The Singers

The Harugari and Lyra Singing Societies returned home from Bay City last evening. The T. & A. A. depot and platform were crowded with the friends of the Saengerfest favorites. The City Band was also in attendance and headed the procession to Germania hall, where Paul G. Suekey and others had an elabórate lunch spread for the boys. It will take the Lyra Society a long time to unload the compliments w.hich were loaded on their broad shoulders by the different musical directors of this state and Canada and by the fairer sex, who were in attendance and forever talking about the singers of Ann Arbor with white suits. Among the musical directors who complimented the boys was Prof. Tunck, of Detroit, who said that the Lyra stood paramount. Prof. Kempf is deserving of a great abundance of credit for the able manner in which he has instructed the Lyra and put them in the foremost rank of Michigan singing societies. The following is a clipping from a Bay City paper: "The Lyra society, ot Anri Arbor, composed of about 20 young men all dressed in duck suits, created a very favorable impression and their selection, "Froehliche Fahrt," by Pfeil, was encored. Their second selection was the University of Michigan college song, "The Yellow and Blue,"
