Boys’ glee consisted of seventeen boys who were chosen in the same manner. The two glee clubs merged and formed the choir. These groups gave a choral production, “The Changeover 1492-1942,” which portrayed the history of the United States in musical pantomine, and they also performed in several Christmas services for the student body and a number of churches. Their largest enterprise of the year was Victor Herbert's opera, “Sweethearts,” which was given several times this spring with very favorable results. Toward the latter part of the year these organizations gave an impressive concert of sacred music in which each group performed individually. During the second semester, the students took part in recitals which were given to develop interest in musical activities and to encourage soloists. GIgM. Play Who's Crazy Now?''-—Gerald Bell The scene of this hilarious comedy is laid in the reception room of the Sunny Vale Insane Asylum where a number of school teachers, who are mentally unbalanced, are trying to educate their pupils. A love story develops when the niece of the superintendent meets one of the young staff doctors but each thinks the other an inmate of the asylum and consequently this too is treated in a humorous manner. When the annual went to press the cast for “Who’s Crazy Now?” had not been chosen.

A marching band of forty people performing at the Arcadia football game officially opened the band’s marching season. Snappy drills and formations added color to other home games. The band also served as a background for the choral production given in November by the music department. Second semester activities included a concert to further the sale of war bonds and the providing of entertainment at the Custer County Basketball Tournament. Onciteibia The formal fall concert was the first of its kind to be presented in Broken Bow. During the balance of the year the orchestra played for Red Cross First Aid Graduation, and gave several concerts during the winter and a spring concert was also presented. A unique and novel thing about the orchestra was the use of two pianos. This was unusual because two pianos are seldom used in high school orchestras.

Si(U4,K Duties and aims of the Sioux are to conduct rallies and pep campaigns, promote school spirit and cheer the boys on to victory. Members of the Sioux were selected by a popular vote of season ticket holders who are known as the “Tribe,' and the football boys, and from this group cheer-leaders were elected as follows: Margie Coble, Phillip Gardner, Nona Hawk, and Gretchen Smith. A party was given for the football squad and one was also given for the Sioux and their friends. Officers of the Sioux were Jane McCleery, President; Nona Hawk, Vice President: Jean Stockwell, Secretary; and Vala Dawn Davis, Treasurer. The music department undertook a most difficult production when they selected Victor Herbert’s light opera Sweethearts’ for their major musical activity. The opera provided valuable training for the individuals who participated and much pleasure for those who had occasion to observe this production. The plot is centered around Sylvia, the lost princess of Zilania, and the several politicians who, through her, wish to gain control of that country. After much confusion she finds her true love, Franze, who very conveniently would have been prince of Zilania had she not been found.
