The Orchestra took an active part in the music festival which was held May 2. This festival has been presented for two consecutive years, and may become an annual event.

while lt can. Band Finishing off with flying colors, the school band made a flne impression on the stu- dents and faculty members. Being the first Leilehua band organized in slx years, it was not expected to be able to play for football games and other occasions. It surprised 'every- one when it was on hand to play for the first pep rally of the year. With 43 members enrolled, the players are looking forward to an equally successful second year. Miss Helen Brown is the instructor and Philson Owen, senior, is the bandmaster. This year, only a few members are able to play regular band pieces. Next year, however, more than forty members are expected to enroll. If possible, the band will give a concert next year to prove their ability. Public ap- pearances for this year have been few, but the improvement has been enormous. With con- dltlons as they are now, there may be a large band at Lellehua soon.

Because of the large enrollment, members of the club were divided into two separate groups. George Shlbano and Melvin Park, presidents of the two organizations, represented rural Oahu at the I-Il-Y Conference on Kauai. Club members took an active part in the Hi-Y track and field meet at McKinley high school in March. Mr. S. K. Tin, prominent Y.M.C.A. worker in China, spoke on Marriage customs in China in the early part of the year. Mr. Cole, Y.M.C.A. secretary, also gave an inspiring talk on the purpose of the Hi-Y organization. Other activities included a joint skating party with the Girl Reserves in April, and a camping trip during the latter part of the year.
