DURING the year the Girls' Choir plane, carrying twenty-hve musical passengers, stopped to sing at many places. The first scheduled stop was made at Christmas time when the choir participated in the Vesper Service which was held in the D. A. auditorium. At this time also the choir sang Christmas carols for shut-ins. Other landings made during the year included the service held at school on Rural Life Sunday and the Annual Spring Concert. As usual, the climax of the year came when the girls boarded the plane and, after several forced landings, arrived at the State Contest in Kingston. At exactly seven-thirty that Saturday evening, they tuned up and gave their best. Since the group received a H rating in the Grade IV division, the girls decided that the year's ride had been entirely successful. -- -sf -1,41 X-r':'1ajilEj :- 'f i

Besides participatingain the annual Spring Concert, the band has played for several programs when music was wanted. . Football and basketball bands were organized to play at athletic games. As usual the band had its ups and downs but in the endit soared to great heights and received a I rating at the Kingston contest.

This past year, as in former years, the the band has gloriously upheld the honor of Delaware Academy and Central School. Z8 --'SSS T-Ad

Not many fellows came at the beginning, but several have joined up during the year to bring our membership up to fifteen. The Chorus has its rehearsals every Monday and VVednesday noon from 12:05 until 12:30. That's not a very long time, but it is surprising what can be done in so short a period. The boys have proven this. The boys have taken to the air on several occasions. Their first appearance was during American Education VVeek, and they made a big hit. Since then they have sung at the Christmas Vesper Service, at the County Home, in the Spring Concert, and for other programs.
