Vennamen. glee em The Cflee Club at Burnham, under the direction of Victor Prahl, has given the school many memorable moments of music. They presented the annual Burnham Bubbles and the school got a glimpse of a great deal of formerly hidden talent. They executed the show with great poise and almost professional presence of mind. We hope subsequent Glee Clubs at Burnham will be able to maintain the standard set by that of '47. 55

The association has since increased its membership and assists in the sports program and both social and athletic events. With cooperation, sportsmanship and dependability as the key notes ot their theme, the Athletic Council has succeeded in making the sports program a success. 57
