, o a I I I This year the Barrington High School band consisted of seventy-five members, the largest the school has ever had. Only through the untiring efforts of our director, Mr. joseph Frey, was the huge organization able to reach the stage where each member fitted into an ideal pattern of united effort. The band put on brilliant performances at football games and thus gave the team the spirit to fight on. On October 5, the band put on a record hop which not only furnished entertainment for the student body as a whole, but stimulated an interest in the activities of the combined music organizations. On December 13 the combined band and glee club held its annual Christmas Concert. On December 15, if if B.H.S. sent fifteen members to the Music Educators' All-State Band, where students played under the direction of Mr. G. C. Bainum. On january 19, the entire band joined Warwfick and East Providence in a MR. FREY tri-school concert. This was directed by Dr. Raymond Dvorack. March 15 and 16 provided a chance for our budding young musicians to show themselves at the R. I. Solo-Ensemble Festival. On April 19, Mr. Frey again loaded his prospective Bach's and Beethoven's onto a bus and set out for the Audition Festival where B.H.S. took top honors. On April 24, the Spring Concert was held, and this proved to be a tremendous success. It was on May 3 and 4 that the Band won fame as it played for the N. E. Drama Festival. Last, but not least, the band played Pomp and Circumstancen on that long awaited night of june 6, 1957- graduation. Third row: M. Hess, M. Covell, J. Miraglia, B. Mitchell, S. Barrett, L.-Dahl, G.

Zawya! Immediately following its organizational meeting in the fall, the Book Club launched a program espe- cially designed to stimulate within the student body a desire to broaden its literary horizons by dipping in- to books of many typesfbiography, travel, drama, and the like. This was done through the medium of cleverly arranged bulletin board and show case dis- plays. Book reviews and panel discussions highlighted several of the meetings. The social activities of the club included the an- nual coffee hour at which members played host to the faculty, and the Book Club Record Hop, which was held on March 22. The club wound up its affairs for the year at a dinner-meeting held during the sec- ond week of june. um, At 'bfi tie' 1 . '. , '3 A-L -... 1-'Pav OFFICERS: Mrs. Stone, Advisor, D.
