MUSIC DEPARTMENT The Music Department of Willis High School has had an active calendar this year. In addition to the two annual concerts, the Christmas musicale and the May musicale, this department has contributed special- ties to the Iunior-Senior banquet, the Basketball banquet, the junior:-f Senior play and the carnival. On April 19 the members of the glee clubs presented a music number for the county teachers banquet in Hiawatha. They also participated in the Brown County Festival held at Hiawatha in April. v On Friday, December 29, the Mixed Chorus presented a Christ- mas concert of a miscellaneous type but centered around the idea of the Christmas customs of other lands. Paul Willich and Dale Zimmerman served as narrators. Frances Bindle and Lila Zimmerman were candle lighters. The walls of the stabe were covered in deep red crepe paper spotted with bits of cotton to represent snow. For a. processional the twenty-six boys and girls carried lighted candles and sang 'slt Came Upon a Midnight Clear . They sat on an elevated platform during the entire program. Our annual spring musicale was given on Friday, May 2, at eight o'clock in the Willis High School auditorium. The mixed chorus sang the cantata, The Legend of Sleepy Hollowng followed by individual solos and small group numbers. Perhaps the most popular selection of the evening was MMemories of Vienna by the girls' glee club. Miss Mildred Imach of Horton played the violin obligato solo and this added a great deal to the performance. The program was closed by the instrumental ensemble's playing three numbers. THE CHRISTMAS PARTY On December 20th, after a few days of planning and decorating, the pupils of our school held a party, just before vacation. Names were drawn and presents exchanged. Betty acted as Santa's little helper. As she called off the names each one went up to the tree in the study hall to receive and open his package before the students. Afterward we played group games which were enjoyed to the full- est extent. After working up an appetite we had refreshments. When the party ended Mr. Hutton formally dismissed school for one week. This party put us all in a good holiday mood. A Lloyd Kneisel Lxihognphld 8: B d b WALSWORTH BROTHERS Murcolino, Mo., U. S A
