The band, better than ever, The third period is band class every day, and Room 8 fairly bursts with oom-pah's and tweedle-de-de's, squeaks and crashes, as the eighty- odd band members go through their daily stint. Brownie must have the wisdom of Solomon and the patience of Job to groom them all into the fine musical organization that they are. Our hearts swell with pride when we see them go through their formations at the half during foot- ball season, and we love to keep time as they entertain us at every pep session and home basketball game. Besides school activities, the band always obliges for community affairs, such as the Halloween parade, Christmas programs, and the Easter bunny parade. They gave three public concerts, selling tickets to help buy four new instruments this year. Contest-wise, the band played at the state fair and the Bluffton street fair. ln April they entered the state band contest at Fort Wayne Central High School. Outstanding soloists were Bonnie Steed, Pat Linder, Doug Milligan, and Joyce Resur. X-:Ls ik, 149 Gabe Lf H2 Q Q.av me .512 , W .wt it is c 1. , --ew kg 5?

The music groups entertained at community Miss Mount, music supervisor for all the city schools, directs the chorus and choir groups at PHS. About a hundred and sixty students entered chorus and choir classes this year. Out of this total, three groups were formed: mixed chorus, girls' chorus, and robed choir. The robed choir appeared at the Thanksgiving, Christ- mas, and Easter convocations, and the Christmas Com- munity Sing. They gave a Sunday evening concert at the West Walnut Street Church of Christ in March and con- certs later in the spring at the E.U.B. Church and the Grange Hall. The girls' chorus, composed mostly of freshmen, also sang for the Community Sing and the Easter convocation, and for the baccalaureate services. ln the district school band, orchestra, and voice con- tests at Ft. Wayne, excellent or superior places were awarded to Janet Baldauf, Barbara Loy, and the girl's quartet, composed of Beth Bright, Annabelle Corle, Bon- nie Steed, and Marilynmarie Stoner. Barbara and the quartet won superior ratings in the state finals. Letters were awarded to those students completing six semesters of chorus work. lpictures on page 7Ol Thirty boys met with Mr. Brown in the music room, if vacant, or if not, in any unoccupied corner, and soon you would hear the sweetest music this side of heaven - the boys' glee club. Specializing in the oldies like That's Where My Money Goes, Mandy Lee, When You Wore a Tulip, and Honey, they made a hit every time they appeared. The boys were gen- erous with their time and talents, singing for several school functions, the Masonic family night, the Rotary Club, and other community affairs. 24
