Every day at 1 o’clock, a group of students gather in room 348 to practice singing under the very capable direction of our own ‘‘Mr. Music”’ or as he is other- wise known, H. R. Evans. Praise as well as reproaches are given to the choir, for Rusty wants his choir to be perfect. His one aim is to get the group at least to finish together, for he believes that unity adds some- thing to a song. The members include: Delores Brady, Bettie Heath, Virginia Jean, Marjory Mather, Jane Pettit, Patricia Tway, Laurine Whitney, Maxine Andrzejewski, Dorothy Arnett, Eleanor Belknap, Abbie Berry, Joyce Stork, Barbara Zwerk, Maxine Hoesman, Geraldine Okon, Irene Pretzer, Madeline Albrecht, Viola Pretzer, Sam Houghtaling, Robert Jereau, Allan Omans, Robert Dean, Richard Norling, Louis Zeile, Harold Chase, Gaynard Farnum, Lawrence Prast, Bruce Bonnell, Bert Braun, Paul Cramer, Harold Delude, Jonothan Hoesman, Roland Johansson, Thomas Tripp, and Art Graham. The major activities of the choir during the year were their appearances at the Christmas assembly featuring ‘‘The Night Before Christmas,’’ and at other regular J. C. functions. 23

Silence Please! Burney Voelker is about to speak. The General Motors Man holds the attention of his audience. Assemblies being a vital part of collegiate life, Tuesdays at two o’clock found students and faculty in the auditorium prepared to be entertained or to receive information first-hand from speakers familiar with various fields. Dean Butterfield has often used a fraction of the hour to familiarize the audience with details of the local college, mostly of a curricular nature; and the Veterans’ Council has occasionally had the opportunity of presenting important material to the members. Dick Norling, Harold Martin, Burney Voelker, and our bursar, Clarence Schultz, have had prac- tice in introducing our speakers. The General Motors assembly was an example of the variety of entertainment presented.

24 Under the guidance of Mrs. Kathleen Plum the art students pursue their activities in a room set apart for their use at Farragut School. Their course is for pleasure as well as for foundational study and profit. Perhaps our chemistry department is now producing embryo atomic scientists. The half-century anniversary in 1972 will give the answer.
