The academic year of 1966-67 has seen the introduction of a new musical activity. The Glee Club, under the direction of Mr. Robert Snyder, made its debut in a Christmas concert with the band and the chorale group from Marymount. Later, appearances were made in conjunction with the band at Hoban-Dominican and Lumen Cordium, as well as the annual Spring concert. The Glee Club has made remarkable progress for a newly organized group throughout the entire year. At tho loft, Mr. Snyder discusses now music with three members of the Glee Club. Tim Gorka, Tom Evort, and Ron Fioritto.

 Band Makes Seventeen Appearances The Benedictine Hiqh School Band, under the baton of Mr. Jack T. Hearns. Jr., displayed its talent seventeen times during the course of the year. What exactly goes into a show? What goes on behind the scenes that is taken for granted? The typical routine for every football show is like this. The band rehearsals start at 7:45 a.m. every day and last for 45 minutes. The bond has one week to prepare for a show. It has to go over music, practice marching, and learn the new ideas for the show. Multiply 45 minutes a day by five days, and the total is 225 minutes. Multiply this by 70 members in the band, and the total rises to 15.750 minutes, or 262l 2 hours. A school day is hours long. Therefore, the band puts in a combined total of 41 2 school days to put on one halftime show. Over a football season of I I weeks (not including summer and night practices] the band practices 456' 2 school days. This is just the time element alone. Countless miles are marched during the season, and there is the constant care of uniforms and shoes. This is what fans just take for granted, but a Bengal Bandsman knows it is vital. The band this year also conducted concerts at Marymount. Hoban-Dominican, and Lumen Cordium, in addition to the annual Christmas and Spring Concerts at the school. Be it rousing marches by Sousa or stirring melodies by the masters, the band has displayed qualities which have earned it the right to be called the best band Benedictine has pro- duced in ten years. Those senior wero the nucleus of the band! (Standing) Jce Anthony. Thomas Lawrence. Harold Arnold. David Behm. Jason Paftorson. Michael Blaslto and Ken Marinik. (Seated) Art Robinson, Ronald Skalak, Maurice Bertrand and Mike Dolan.

After carrying out a successful freshman initiation, the council turned to more pressing problems. Included in this year's docket was the banning of work pants as proper school dress, and an extremely effective haircut campaign. At the right. Frank Bossu and Jim Betts, president and vice-president respectively, ran an orderly and effective council which proved to be one of the best in recent years. 18
