BADMIXTON This sport paved the way for the first of the many intramural activities of the girls. During the early part of the school semester, we found many girls in Norwalk High School interested in a badminton tournament. Juniors. seniors and sophomores competed against each other in many thrilling games. The final winners were: Jane lVilson, Dorothy Holmgren and Patricia Horton. After badminton we found that volleyball was iolling around. ORCHESTRA Through the efforts of Mr. Fraleigh the orchestra is striving to reach a high peak in musical entertainment similar to that of the band. Blr. Fraleigh, a grad- uate of Ithaca College, has undertaken the reestablishment of the orchestra after the flowing music of violins, playing The Blue Danubef, Tales from the Vienna VVoods and other selections of the great masters, which have been missing from our school for a year. The orchestra students of today look to the future for the inevitable success of the orchestra as a musical unit in Norwalk High Scohol. BRASS ENSEMBLE CLUB The Brass Ensemble Club was formed so that the ensemble might play together on diflicult pieces. They strive to eliminate some of the difficulties usually encoun- tered in ensemble playing. THE LIBRARY CLUB The Library Club is an organization composed of girls who love books and libraries and share their appreciation by giving freely of their time to render a service to the school. These girls execute daily the numerous everyday tasks which help to keep a school library in smooth running order. Such duties include desk work. the tidying of books and magazines, simple binding and typing. All girls in the club are voluntary members and give much of their spare time to assist the librarian and their fellow students. Any strong arm jobs are willingly handled by a group of boys who have oifered to help the librarian whenever their services are needed. Thus our school is served by a really cooperative group of students. PUBLIC SPEAKING AND DEBATING CLUB The sponsor of this club is Mr. Guarnaeeia. The only requirement necessary in order to become a member of this club is to be willing to prepare for and partici- pate in debates.
