Dawn's early light brought the running -fee t of the 61 Senior Chorus members who raced against the clock to be on the risers at 7:30 a.m. sharp. Although it was not a time when the Harding Academy Senior Chorus members were most inspired, they did learn many new songs, most of which were performed on the tours. During the fall tour in Louisiana and the spring tour in Florida, the chorus members came to know one another better on the long bus rides. Having packing partners provided lessons in sharing. Crowded bus conditions caused six of the members to ride on backless jump seats. Patience was needed again when the chorus bus broke down on the fall tour, leaving the chorus members stranded in Monroe, Louisiana for five hours. Knowledge of the fundamentals of music increased as the students learned to read music and to lead songs. Their understanding of Christianity was broadened as well since each night of the tour was spent with different families of churches along the tour. Appropriately, the Academy chorus ended the ye¥ in a presentation honoring the graduating seniors at the commencement ceremonies in May. 1.
