The chorus has sung for the Christmas party, D. A. R. House gatherings, the U. S. O., Senior Play intermission, Fath- er's Night, Fine Arts Tea, as well as several special assemblies here at school. The orchestra also has performed with the chorus on several occasions. The student body is literally overflowing with capable pianists such as Helen Buschmann, Anne Macfarlane, Katie Clare Roys, ldalice Squire and Kay Parker. There are also the vocalists Geneva Spalding and Phyllis Rattray, Ola Bell, flutist, and the crop of violin players grows larger every year. All of these musicians lend their talents to student assemblies and other functions. Not to be forgotten are Mrs. Turner and Mrs. Jackson who have skillfully guided many pianists over the rough spots in their musical careers.

Having returned from a tour of eastern schools, stuyding new techniques and approaches to musical in- struction as well as the function of student government, she is full of new and scintillating ideas. She not only conducts classes in harmony, composition, and speech, but directs the chorus and trains the orchestra. Parkside also has an orchestra, which is under Mrs. Livengood's direction, capable of musical understanding and interpretation far beyond their years. These various and sundry groups of musicians lend much GLEE CLUB-Front row: Left to right: Spalding, DeCamp, Bennett, Donald, Bell, Binns, Parker, Allen.

Eli W i ARTISTIC EXPANSION CHAPTER THREE ART The art students this year have great variety in their methods of working and in their mediums. The art shack, the lair of these enthusiasts, proudly displays everything from drawings to plaster casts, which represent the inspiration and toil of the school year. Under the supervision of Mr. LaGrille the older pupils were free to work in any medium -that they wished while the younger students worked out designs in ink and compositions in water color. The department was very fortunate to have been able to have an excellent model for its life class. This opportunity afforded the class experience in life drawing and painting. Before the year was over almost everyone had experimented in clay modeling. plaster casting, poster making, and oil-painting as well. Much information was gathered from conversation while the girls worked. The art exhibits in the halls came in for much dis- cussion from time to time with Mr. LaGrille having to explain the beauty and merit of modern art, particularly, since most students find it extremely confusing.
