Direemr BAND ln blue and white uniforms, the band members presented their annual Bandjoree on january 23 at the Caruthers Grammar School Auditorium. The program consisted of novelty band numbers, solos, dances, duets, and selections given by the music clubs. Delmer Say played a number on the solovox and also accompanied LaVerne and Williani jackson while they jitterbugged. Other dance numbers of a military and Hawaiian type were given by Marlene Pedriera. -Iessie and jim San Sebastian added accordion duet numbers to those selections given by an accordion band under the direction of Miss Jessie Millar. The successful Bandjoree program was under the management of Hiram Cox and the direction of Mr. Jack Ritchey. The vocal numbers were under the direction of Miss Inez Coffin.

At other times the band appeared at both the Fresno and Caruthers Fairs with Robert Hunter as drum major: the band also marched in the Fresno Armistice Day Parade and the Caruthers Fair Parade. The experiences of this year should be very profitable to us in our undertakings next year. 26

ORCHESTRA The Caruthers High School Orchestra, led successfully under the direction of Mr. -Iacla Ritchey, consists of thirty-four instruments. During this past year we have had a number of very good performances. In October we furnished the music for the coro- nation of the Caruthers Fair Queen. We displayed our talents when we performed before and between acts at the junior play, Spring Fever. At the spring Extravaganza, The Hit Paradef' we again pleased the public with our instrumental music. Included in this performance were several numbers given by our string quartet, consisting of E. J. Brown, N. Nielson, R. Darmanian, and Mr. Ritchey. Also on the program were L. Quis-t, N. Nielson, C. J. Waltoii. and M. L. Black who played a clarinet arrangement. Later in the year we assisted the senior class at their play, Galahad Jones, and at their graduation exercises. Although all of our performances have been successful, we are looking forward to next year, when we hope to have a bigger and better orchestra.
