Free- man, gloried in their music at all Belmont ' s foot- ball games; from the Maynard tussle to the climactic Watertown fray. An added attraction this year was a four man color guard which also made its a])i)earance at the rugby games. I ' all saw the hand i)resenting a Concert and Dance which terminated neither successfully nor unsuccessfully. Directed by a student conductor, the hand entertained the physical educators from all sections of the state who congregated at the High School for their conference in March. Concluding their playing at Mr. Stone’s annual concert, the hand consummated its season by play- ing for the Memorial Day parade and the Senior graduation. [ 12 ]

unLox i Junior Red Cross is composed of J fifty-five representatives of the student body under the guidance of Ruth Lowery, President ; Dorothy Penney, Vice-president ; Richard Flamand, Secretary; Ruth Stevenson, Treasurer; and Miss Onthank, Faculty Adviser. In response to the national emergency, the ac- tivities of the club were extended to include ad- ditional projects supervised by Miss Woodruff. The enterprises comprised the creation of articles of clothing- for children and the knitting of many sweaters and scarfs for soldiers and sailors. According to the usual custom, the club spon- sored Thanksgiving baskets, a Christmas party for needy children, a drive for funds, and an in- formal dance, which was held in April. The club was represented in the Metropolitan Chapter by Don Halloran, the senior representa- tive, and Isabell Kelleher, the junior represen- tative. Cj xo±± [11]
