William, Cole, Robert Dow, Iames Perkins The Crimson and White, in constant competition with the Academy Messenger, has also been prevalent in school activities this year. In the able hands of Dorothy McNeill from September to February, followed by Elizabeth Price for the second semester, it has been noteworthy for its clever features and staff-members who were always on their toes. Though they lost their competent news editor in May due to illness, her shoes were filled by Clarissa VanDenburg. Elizabeth, the second semester editor-in-chief, was noted for her conservative editorials, and readers looked forward from week to week to the tricky features written by Alice and B.I. We understand their frantic efforts Friday night to make the deadline, when the results on Thursday were so satisfying. 29

It has come out weekly, as always, and has had a variety of editors, instead of the usual one a term. Sharing the editorship after the resignation of Martha Turner, the Storm- Tukey combination worked out a system whereby they shared responsibilities and ideas, as well as headaches, and had the Mess as they called it, well broken in for Teresa Squires, who was chosen editor for the second term. The new editor gave the paper a few brand new columns and continued publication until Iune when Regents took over and the cry have you got a feature? was replaced by who has a review book? 28

34049 .Have ludic . This year, although slightly handicapped by the loss of so many of the regulars , the orchestra be- gan Monday night rehearsals as usual. At first things looked and sounded rather dismal, but before the end of the year, with a great deal of effort on the part of Miss Roth and Mr. Silvio, everything took on a more cheerful aspect. The Annual Concert held May 19, and the Music Festival in Syracuse, May 24, were the main objec- tives, but they also played for Prize Speaking, P. T. A., and other events during the year, not to mention assembly programs every Wednesday- but then, how could we forget those? Whoops-almost forgot! Today is Tuesday and fifth period means Glee Club! This year, every Tuesday and Thursday after- noon at l o'clock has found the Glee Club warbling under the leadership of Miss Roth, with Phyllis O'Brien at the piano. The Glee Club sang for their Christmas Cantata, Hope of the World by Schnecker. For the spring concert, the male section starred with Stout Hearted Men, and the whole group sang The Waltz of the Flowers . Yes, many aspir- ing young tenors and coloraturas come out of the Academy's Glee Club! eff: 3119 ogef e
