Warriors Sound The Tom-Toms K- Q. Ta NM' WW 'i fel. .fr 'im The music department, under the direction of Mr. Hughes and Miss Laflin, was very active. Mr. Hughes directed the band, orchestra, chorus, and boys' glee. Miss Laflin directed the girls' glee and various small groups. There were forty-two members in the band. They played and marched at football games, at the annual Luther homecoming celebration, and for the first basketball game in the new gymnasium. They also played at the tri-city clinic held at Bellevue on February 1, and at the annual spring band concert, pre- paratory to the music contest. Part of the group played during a Christmas pageant. The band was really on the march and, because of the effort put forth by each member, showed great improvement. During the first semester the orchestra consisted of eighteen members. However, at the beginning of the second semester, it was dissolved into a number of small groups: a string class of ten, a woodwind group of eight, a brass ensemble of seven. These groups met once a week during the regular orchestra periods. Several small groups participated in the district contest and earned high ratings. The girls' glee had an enrollment of fifty-two. They sang at the winter concert and the annual music festival. A number of small groups in the vocal department were very active. These groups included the girls' sextet, the girls' triple trio, the boys' octet, the boys' quartet, and the mixed quartet. They, too, sang for many organizations in and near Wahoo. The twenty-six individuals in boys' glee sang at the Armistice Day pro- gram, winter and spring concerts, music contest, and junior class play. Members of the glee clubs and other students made up the mixed chorus. They sang at the winter and spring concerts, and music contest. They also made a public appearance at the Farmers Co-op banquet. The student body appreciated the pep band. It helped to make the basket- ball games and rallies noisy and lively, and was an inspiration to the players.
