Harmony High School has a band. Last summer 'there were rumors that a new music teacher was coming to fill Mr. Lamb's place. We all re- gretted seeing him go and we all are grateful to him for the musical start he gave us. The rumors became fact on Sept. 11, 1952, when Mr. Alexander Econo- mos arrived at H. H. S. -to begin an entirely new music program. Since then the number of students study- ing musical instruments has declined, but the early confusion has finally boiled down to a progressive band of people. We played several marches with the- Union No. 63 Band at the April 14 spelling contest in St. Albans. The loand is also going to take a trip to Waterville to hear the U. S. Navy Band Concert April 25. Mr. Economos has taken every- thing in hand, and although it may take time, H. H. S. will eventually have an excellent music department.

I We started our fall term of softball with a bang which popped loudly when we helplessly and hopelessly lost our three games to our friendly neighbors. Our coach, Mr. St. Pierre tried to whip us into shape but we just didn't digest the prescribed medicine so remained soft, but, cheer up, Coach! We all cross our hearts and hope to die that the spring will blossom out some very good soft-ball players. Our scores were as follows: H. H. S.

. CHORUS Since Mr. Economos came, the Jr. and Sr. High School Choruses have merged into one Chorus. We have three new music books from which we have sung many songs. The music program has been chang- ed. Our chorus of members has studied music appreciation, has done much reviewing of note Values and key signatures, and has learned musi- cal terms. Mr. Economos is doing a first-rate job in teaching us. His methods are different than were Mr. Lamb's, but every chorus member feels we are getting as much from music, so nothing was lost by the change of teachers. Iris Downs was sent as a repre- sentative of the Harmony Chorusto participate in the All-Kennelbec- Val- ley Chorus which presented four con- certs in January along with the Ken- nebec-Valley Orchestra and Band. Many new things have been learn- ed and tried since Mr. Economos ar- rived and we wish to thank him for his whole-hearted interest in our school. ' STUDENT COUNCIL Seated l. to r.: C. Chadbourne, I.
