THE TOOT 29 NATIONAL THESPIANS The Dramatic Club of C. H. S. is an old and venerable institution, but its successor, the National Thespian Hon- orary Society is a veritable babe in arms, having been enjoying promin- ence in this school for only about three years. During this short time it has made its presence felt by the fine quality of the dramatic work produced under the excellent tutelage of Miss Helen Jacobs, our advisor. Membership in the National Thes- pians is something to work for. Those who have achieved the honor of be- coming Thespians during the past year are: Phyllis Woolsey, John Dor- ris, Mary Lanzafarni, Doris Durfes, Helen Ely, Alfreda Tornabene, Rob- ert Wilde, William Tanner, Barbara Imhofe, Barbara Gleason and Fran- ces Setticase. The first activity of the year was a picnic at the summer camp of Mary Pat: “Will you be true when I am gene?” Bob: “Yes, but don’t be gone long.’ Tibbits on Oneida lake. It was heid last fall and everyone had an enter- taining evening. Our chaperones were Miss Jacobs and Miss Elizabeth How- ard. As usual the three-act play was presented in early December. This year the choice was “Spring Fever” a farce of college life, ably interpreted by Doris Durfee, Helen Ely, Frances Setticase, Marjorie Nichols, Phyllis Woolsey, Mary Frances Stahler, Her- bert Wilde, Ivan Walters, William Tanner, Clifford Osgood, Robert Wilde and Warren Johnson. The latest pro- duction was Mushrooms Coming Up”, a one-act play presented in chapel. Our year closes and we hope that the next year will be as full for the National Thespians, Troop 46, Canas- tota High school, as the past years have been for us, the class of 1939. —HOWARD GLEASON Miss Mackey: “What is a farm?” Harriet: “A piece of land entirely covered by a mortgage.”

»0 THE TOOT MUSIC DEPARTMENT Under the able and diligent super- vision of Mr. Baritaud and Miss How- ard, the membership and activities in the Music Department have in- creased many fold in the last year. The band started the season of ’38 by electing John Molinari, president of the band and Marion Lehner, treas- urer and librarian of the band. It then played for the Republican rallies that were held at Canastota and Chittenango and put on a band concert in the High School auditor- ium. Various instrumental solos were rendered by the leading musicians. In May 24, 1939, the band partici- pated in a three way festival with Camden and Parish, where more than 150 pupils participated. Several select- ions were played by the individual bands, then they grouped into a mass in which several numbers were play- ed. The band has also played for all the athletic contests during the school year. The band, which consists of about 30 members, has made quite a reput- able name for itself during the past year. The Junior High Band was just re- cently started in September 1938 un- der the direction of Miss Howard. Re- markable talent and progress has been shown, and the band put on a con- cert in the High School auditorium. The audience was amazed at the pro- gress that the band had made, much of which is due to the able direction of Miss Howard. The Glee Club, the best in many years, has also had a very eventful and successful season. This really has been a “boom” year for the Glee Club. Under the direction of Mr. Baritaud, Miss Howard, Miss Jacobs and Miss Heller, the Glee Club put on the most outstanding musical performance in years, and reached its zenith in the production of “Pinafore.” “Pinafore” was such a hit that the Glee Club was invited to put on the performance at Hamilton, which was equally suc- cessful. The Glee Club also participated in a three way festival with Camden and Parish and has sung for the Com- mencement exercises. The Glee Club has finished the sea- son of ’38 and ’39 with quality and outstanding performance. The Symphonic Singers which took in many new members this year, first performed at the band concert in November. Later they sang for sev- eral church and community functions. The orchestra furnished music for the annual dramatic club play, “Spring Fever”, for prize speaking and the Commencement exercises. During the past year a great stride has been taken in the music depart- ment to expand musical education to the high school and junior high school. Instrumental lessons are given by our two music supervisors and various in- strumental and vocal combinations have been formed. We are proud of our flute trio, our girls vocal trio and various other instrumental groups. We, in the music department feel that our enviable progress is due to the untiring, ever successful, and patient work of Mr. Baritaud and Miss Howard. —JOHN MOLINARI Hesper: “Why don’t you keep your hair combed?” Herbie: “I have no comb.” Hesper: “Why don’t you buy a comb?” Herbie: “Because then I’d have to keep my hair combed.”..
