She quartets
There wasn't always the harmonious relationship that exists now between male
and female barbershoppers. In 1947 there were many scathing letters to the
editor of Harmonizer knocking Sweet Adelines and "she" quartets. To the
credit of our Society, none of these letters were printed. The Society didn't
want Harmonizer to become a trash magazine.
