The several groups which it includes are the boys' and girls' glee clubs, the girls' junior and senior choirs and the boys' quintet. These groups meet at different times during the week under the direction of the music instructor, Miss Gertrude LeQuin. During the year the several groups of the chorus participated in the Armis- tice Day assembly, the Christmas pageant, and the assembly presented in honor of Mr. Kavanaugh at his departure from our school. The choirs and the boys' glee club also sang at the dedication of the new honor roll at the Town Hall on the evening of November eleventh. The music program has been limited by the shortened school day which was necessitated by the fuel shortage, and we are lool-ting forward to the re- turn to normalcy. 31

Marines was incorporated by Superintendent Adelbert Cox with the idea of having a group of older boys and girls prepared to help out in any sort of emergency. There are members with all sorts of talents including truck-driving, farming, first aid, and child care. The Marines are on call in case of emergency, especially for evacuation and fire-fighting. Its principle activities, however, have been assistance on farms and registration of sugar gas, oil, and Ration Book Number Two. 32
