- Notes:
- As in some other school magazines, Kalman Marmor's name is stamped here and there in this section. He may have marked individual compositions for his own attention, for feedback, or for later use.
The Jewish People’s Fraternal Order was the largest ‘national’ section of the International Workers Order (IWO) which focused on cultural awareness and celebration, mutual support especially in health insurance coverage, and anti-fascist activities. The IWO also gave particular emphasis to supporting the rights and interests of African Americans.
