May 1960: Poster - Sprague
   
In May 1960 the YRC organized the Inter-University Conference on Cultural Exchange with speakers from Yale, other universities and the State Department, along with seminars led by YRC members. Closing the conference was a concert in Sprague Hall that included the jazz-duo of Willie Ruff and Dwike Mitchell of the Music School, who had accompanied the YRC on its second tour to the USSR in 1959 and had given an impromptu jazz concert in Moscow's Tchaikowsky Hall.
