At other assemblies it has accompanied singing by the audience as the words of the songs appeared on the screen. It contributed much to the annual Spring Music Festival on May second, and will play at the commence- ment exercises on Iune twenty-fourth. The group is particularly well-balanced as to its instrumentation. The players deserve much credit for their faithfulness in rehearsing with Mr. Olsen before the start of the daily school session several Bam! For the fifth year, the band numbering forty-two members, has added color and zest to our football games and pep assemblies. Directed by Mr. Olsen, the band has performed creditably at assemblies and on several special occasions. It assisted at the mem- orable Armstice Day program held in the auditorium on the evening of November ninth, and played an important part at the annual Music Festival of May second. Also, as has been its custom for the past few years, Bellows' Band presented a concert jointly with Mamaroneck High School on Daniel Warren Field early in Iune. The snappy effect of the band was heightened considerably by the appearance of two sprightly little drum-majors: namely, Velma Dellner and Marilyn Steffes. mornings a week.

ociaf One of the new groups of the school, formed under the supervision of Miss Norton, is the Senior High Social Club. The purpose of this organization is to bring about a better social attitude among the high school students by acting as hosts and hostesses and by serving on different committees. Several afternoon dances have been successfully managed by the group. The General Organization of the school receives the proceeds derived from these affairs and in turn purchases records for the school. Due to the club's varied objectives, it has proved popular with the students and is likely to continue next year. I I Uzaffgc gums Fostered by the General Organization, the Traffic Guides was founded this year to cope with the existing corridor congestion. Its members have dealt with this problem heretofore left in the hands of the faculty. Among their duties fall regulation of traffic in the corridors and in the stairways during the passing of classes and supervision of the seating of students for special assemblies. All disciplinary matters are left to the jurisdiction of the body itself. So far the results of this method have been sastifactory. Fitting itself in a quietly efficient man- ner into our routine, the Traffic Guides has proved to be a credit to the General Organization.

Qainfing V Each Monday a large group of enthusiastic young artists meets with Miss Palmer to express themselves freely with brush and pencil. This year the members have made pencil drawings, water color pictures, fashion sketchings, cartoons in ink, murals and portrait painting in oils. The work is of special interest because each composi- tion is entirely original in idea and is executed without assistance. The Club has no officers and holds no business meetings but directs its attention entirely to the various advanced methods of painting and sketching. I gypuzg A splendid opportunity is offered to those students unable to ioin regular classes to learn how to typewrite by joining this club. Students of grades nine to twelve receive an adequate knowledge of typing which stands them in good stead in other studies and in later life. They develop keyboard manipulation, letter writing, tabulation, envelope addressing, manuscript writing, book reports, menu typing and other work of a personal nature. The typing club, composed of eighteen members, has no officers as parliamentary meetings are deemed unnecessary. .4.nx.,..sarfef1 - N N N 3 1 Page 34
