X ' 'N J cbs saga? cbs UE V 1-Y The Orchestra E That a high school orchestra plays a prominent part in school ac- tivities is proven by the excellent work accomplished by this year's musicians. . Music is an inspiration and our own orchestra has given to us, through their excellent renditions, the feeling which comes when there's music in the air. Under the capable leadership of Mr. W. S. CBillD Owen, the group has made a number of appearances throughout the school year. They have assisted the Dramatic Club on a number of occasions, have played before several auditorium meetings, at the Commencement exer- cises held in February and will render several selections at the coming graduation exercises on June 18th. Entering the Northwestern Pennsylvania Music Contest held in the Academy auditorium April 27, the Red and Black musicians impressed the large gathering with their excellent work. A Band was organized during the football season to lend a needed helping handt' in the way of school spirit when Central met their op- ponents on the gridiron. The results were satisfactory, considering the limitations imposed upon the Band. With the completion of thebnew Strong Vincent High School, the band will take the place it rightly de- serves among the organizations at school. PERSONNEL Manager.
