GLEE CLUB Tne Giee Club came into existence in the year 1913 with a membership of thirteen girls who met every other week after school. It has continued to grow each year and at present has a membership of 70 boys and girls. They meet at least three times a week for a period of twenty minutes during school hours under the competent direction of Miss Eliza- beth M. Roth. These songsters gather together not only for the pleasure of warbling, but also for the one-fourth unit which they earn during the year. I he Glee Club has made several appearances this year. Early in the season it started practising a Christmas Cantata, which was presented at the last assembly before the Christmas vacation. A special chorus sang In a Monastary Garden by Kittleby at the Senior Prize Speaking Contest. The next event was the annual Spring Concert at which they rendered two numbers. The Glee Club wound up the year with a trip to Syracuse to par- ticipate in an entertainment presented by the glee clubs and orchestras of the schools of the county. ORCHESTRA The orchestra has had a busy and proiitaole year under the direction ot Miss Elizabeth M. Roth and the help of Mr. Silvio Menecuezzo. It meets every Monday night at seven o'clock end spends about one and one-half hours in real practice. This year the orchestra has had many oppor- tunities to play for school and other social evems. Assemblies, Senior and Junior Prize Speaking, two Parent Teacher Association meetings and the Senior Play are several occasions on which it participated. Also, it played several numbers for the Minstrel Shew sponsored by St. Mary s Men s Club. The annual Spring Concert and a trip to Syracuse with the Glee Club wound up the musical events of the year. DOROTHY LOU FLANDERS HIGH SCHOOL CAFETERIA The High School Cafeteria was organized in 1936-1937 by Mrs. Evelyn B. McNaughton. Under her supervision, students taking Home Economics II plan, order, prepare, and serve the hot lunches to the student body. Each noon a hot dish such as Spanish rice, soup, and a salad or dessert were available for the students at a very low cost. Through contributions made to the cafeteria by local organizations, this year the cafeteria was able to provide free hot lunches to those pupils who would have been otherwise unable to have milk and a hot dish for their lunch. MILDRED LOOPE ATHLETIC BANQUET This year's Athletic Banquet was a great success It was held April 27 in the Masonic Temple. The dinner, served by the Ameranth, was fol- lowed by the distribution of block letters by Mr. Getman. Charles O'Brien as toastmaster, his usual job, gave a few warming up remarks; then intro- duced Mr. Raymond McCarthy, the representative of the Board of Education. The featured speaker of the evening was Les Hart, Coach at Colgate University, who showed moving pictures of the foot- ball game between Colgate and Duke universities. When the students and faculty had joined in sing- ing the Alma Mater, everyone went to the gym- nasium where swing by local talent turnished plenty of pep for dancing until 12. FRANCES DONAHUE RECREATION CLUB The recreation club, made up of the majority of girls in high school, met once a week in the gym- nasium under the supervision of Miss Mae Forrest. Physical Training teacher. Such games as badminton, volley ball, shuffle board, darts, bowling, archery, ping pong, and rings were played in order that the girls might secure block letters (if they had enough credit). The equipment used by the girls was purchased four years ago by means of each girl paying five cents a month in the form of dues. We, the Senior Class of '39, wish to thank Miss Forrest for all she has done for us in the iine o: having a good time after school hours. CHRISTINE DUNLAP
