D irector The Glee Club, under the direction of Mr. Schwarz, is composed of sixteen boys. Although they were rather inactive during the first half of the term because of an almost complete change in membership, the boys expect to be very busy after the Christmas holidays with concerts and a performance at the Lincoln Annex. Since last June, letters have been given to members of one year and one-half in good standing. Those wearing letters are wehrfritz, Tucker, Hicks, Balas, and Eckhoff. Included in the repertoire of the Glee Club are the following songs: Last Round-Up, Vocal Combat, In the Time of Roses, Amici, and the Winter Song. To the Class of January, 1934, and particularly to our departing comrades, Hicks, Pandolfo, and VanDeusen, the Glee Club extends its heartiest wishes for success and happiness.

A dviser The Vocal Class, one of the oldest organizations in the school, has completed another successful term. Under the excellent direction and guidance of Mr. Schwarz, the combined Vocal Class and the Glee Club have rendered many beautiful songs at the weekly assemblies. The Vocal Class also took an active part in the Christmas program in which it sang one of Mr. Schwarz's own compositions, Except the Lord. Through graduation the Vocal Class will lose Florence Fagerlund, Sahre Fine, Hazel McClain, Dorothy Weiss, Virginia Tyrka, and Ann Pearson, all active members. To these girls and to the class of January, 1934, we extend our heartiest wishes for success and happiness. 149

The club, with Q1 membership of twenty-four, is conducting an essay contest and offering .1 prize to the member submitting the best essay. Four meetings have been held this term, the Hrst in November being devoted to organization. The second was given over to a study of The Essay. Biography was discussed at the third. Extracts from a recent biography were presented so entertainingly that most of the club members are anxious to read the book. Short reviews of other biographies were a part of the program. At the informal Christmas meeting games and contests were provided for the enter- tainment of members. The club librarian hopes to have a lending library with a number of new books ready to serve the reading tastes of Lincoln High School early in the new year. 151
