Songbook compiled as "A gift to the college from the class of 1934 with special dedication to Miss Sarah Atsatt who inspired us to sing". This copy was presented to Dr. Hartley B. Alexander who composed the lyrics for the first song featured, "Onward! Alma Mater Song". 21pp. Pp. 11-14 contains one of the earliest published pieces by Vladimir Ussachevsky, composer and later co-founder of the Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center, becoming one of the major innovators of 20th-century electronic music (it was he who proposed the ADSR envelope for electronic sound). Emigrating from Russia in 1930, he began studying music at Pomona College, a sister school of Scripps College. In 1951 he was to create the first-ever recording of electronic music. The piece here is called 'Inspiration (Russian Tune)', arranged by Ussachevsky.
