GLEE CLUB Although the majority of its members were freshmen, the 1945- 46 Girls’ Glee Club has made splendid progress and has been well received by the public. The girls sang at various school functions throughout the year and presented their own program March 15. During the two-year absence of Navyman Willard Adams, the club has been under the supervision of E. L. Cooper, who said that “special praise goes to the junior girls who have remained loyal to the organization and have given it their best efforts these last three years.’’ The accompanist, Joan Currie, was “drafted” from the eighth grade. She has accepted with unfading calm and courtesy the many difficult tasks assigned hei throughout the year. BAND The senior band has been an inactive organization the last two years because Mr. Adams, the director, was in the United States. Navy. However. Mr. Cooper organized and drilled a number of junior band members for the first semester. The seniors hope the band will again become a regular activity of Bridger High School next year with as high an enrollment as was previously obtained through the efforts of Mr. H. E. McBride and Mr. Adams.
