J T l Something to ote I've been in the Glee Club for four years, and each year has been dif- ferent. I've gotten a lot of experience, I love to sing, and we get to perform in a major show at the end of the school year, which is a blast to do! stated Kathy Mitcheltree, a sen- ior in the Crlee Club. Members enthusiastically agreed that anytime is the right time for music. Even though the Crlee Club was held as a class during third period, the members sometimes practiced during lunch break or after school for performances. The best of times, stated Lori Hoeffer, a spirited mem- ber, are during perfor- mances. Singing in front of an audience gave the mem- bers the opportunity to show their talents. The group sang at Bullocks, Assumption Grammar School in Pasadena, a vari- ety of Christmas parties, and, of course, for the student body. Music is just one of those things that can put a person in a very good mood. It's magical! was the reply of Paige johnson, a very en- thusiastic member. Mrs. Reed also shared a lot of her experienced talent with the group, and helped things run smoothlyxb A Members of the Glee Club stand perfectly still as they sing in front of the school. The audience gradually joined in and participated while look ing forward to Christmas, and sharing their enthusiasm. 62 Glee Club

Gutstanding Letterman Club was de- scribed by Katie Malloy as outstanding athletes. They never met on any terms, nor was there a student president. There were only nine members existing in this organiza- tion which proved that it was an achievement not everyone could accom- plish as stated by Mary Brkich. Recognition of sports abilities was the main goal. To join the Letterman Club, participation in four varsity teams was required. Then, members were able to receive the Letterman Sweater. Out of the nine members, 64 Letterman Club only four bought sweaters tone received it the year beforel. Problems caused sweaters to be delayed, which made it a problem for the three patient waiting members. The Albion Knit- ting Co. did a great job, but also aroused difficulties.
