These members are taken from the seventh to the eleventh grades. The band has played at the majority of the football games and in several of the school activities. The Senior band has been asked to play in chapel several times for the complete student body. In the fall, the band was asked to play for the Ragtime Wedding of Mr. Atkinson and Miss Hundley in an Amateur Program sponsored by the Beta Club. It was a huge success, and for clever and outstanding performance the band walked away with one of the top prizes. With the guidance and patience of the band director, Miss Gemmel and with many hours of practice by the band members, a concert recital was given on February 20th for all who wished to come.

It was organized in the fall of 1943 under the able leadership of Miss Hundley. From the very first, it proved to be one of the most interesting and active clubs in the high school. The Club is planning a very active part in the celebration of Latin Week, which falls this year on the last week in April. At the present time, the club members are busily engaged in preparing an exhibit of Roman life, which will be on display during Latin Week in the Latin room. The week will be climaxed by a special program and entertainment for the parents of the Latin Club members. The Club colors are light blue and dark blue, and the Club song is “We’re the Members of J.
