Bagley Band Our band activities this year have really branched out. We have a 40 piece band, a pep band, and the beginning of what promises to be a marching band. The pep band made their appearance at the carnival which was held in October. The marching band also marched downtown that day to advertise the carnival. The marching band was instrumental in striking up interest in the basketball games. At every home basketball game the entire band made an appearance. Grade Operetta The grade operetta, Kentucky Garden , was presented on December 20, under the direction of Miss McCormick and Mr. Clague. The melodies of Stephen Foster constituted the keynote of the operetta and many of the best known of Foster's compositions were featured. The leading roles were taken by Lila Laughery, Harris Hoyt, Judy Hidlebaugh, and Kent Ford, with other members of the grades completing the cast. Music Festival Bagley acted as host to the Tri-County Association Music Festival on April 7. Mem- bers of this conference include Bagley, Yale, Linden, Rippey, Dawson, Jamaica, and Cooper. About two hundred young musicians participated in thelevent. The instrumental and vocal groups from these schools were featured in an all day practice session under the direction of a noted conductor. At 8 pgm. as a result of the day's progress, an arrange ment of both vocal and instrumental music was presented to the public to the enjoyment of all. l Hot Lunch Department Hot lunches have proved to be an integral part of the school system. A steady group of approximately one hundred and fifty students are daily eaters at the school. Many worthwhile activities have been developed in the grade rooms by building around ideas in regard to the lunch program. This program is a fine basis for discussion of proper etiquette, balanced diets, and thrift. 32

Girls' Basketball Coach Cuddy was back again to supervise our ball club. The year began with a bright outlook, but excellent coaching by Cuddy could not over- come the lack of experience in the front court which seems to be the deciding factor in this year's record. Although the Bagleyites, by defeating Stuart, Casey, and Jamaica, found themselves in the final round of the countytournamentsg they won only ten out of a- series of twenty-six games for the whole season. This year brought more girls out for basketball than in previous years and allowed more competition than usual. Those who have seen action sometime during the year are: Seniors: Janet Duncan, Ramona Smith, Phyllis Washam, Delores Sheehy, and Jean Myers. Juniors: Donna Duncan, Jean Hagge, Elaine Bowman, and Evelyn Badger. Sophomores: Lois Carstens, Beverly Laughery, and Doris Porter. Freshmen: Beverlee Miller, Donna Bane, Dora Prescott, and Rhoda Frownfelter. Bane, a newcomer to Bagley, took the title role in the ball club. Only a Freshman, is one of the tallest girls on the club, which was a major factor for her collecting three hundred and forty-two points in the course of the season. Bane Janet Duncan was runner-up in the scoring with two hundred and ten points to her credit. Janet is a Senior and will leave the ball club this year.
