TI - EDITCEBIALS ll THE ADVERTISING STAFF The Advertising Staff of the Cochran Aerial Year Book for 1927, was composed of the following students: Mary Ellen Cooper, Sara Lininger, Edward Golab, Robert VValker, Orrie Miller, Don- ald Meyers, Williani Krieger. Robert Klingelhafer, James Kennedy, Jack lwoberly, and Francis Stearn. This committee held its first meeting during the Newspaper Club session on March ll. The second meeting was held' in the men teacher's room on Friday, March l2. Each member was given a list of merchants to inter- view for ads. Everywhere they went, the pupils collecting ads were received with courtesy, and in most places, with Hcash assist- ance. This shows that a spirit of boosting is very evident among the merchants of our city. A prize will be awarded to the couple which brings in the most ads and money. The members of the staff are working extremely hard for the prize as it is a free ticket to the movies. When the Year Book went to press the winners were not yet known, but they will be announced in the next issue of the Aerial. In behalf of the Cochran Aerial Staff we Wish to thank this com- mittee for its splendid work in obtaining ads with which to finance our Annual and to assure them that We appreciate their co-operation. Now, students of Cochran, do your share by patronizing and ask- ing your parents to patronize our advertisers.

On Thursday, Nlarch 24, the Kiwanis and American Busi- ness Clubs were entertained at Cochran. The members of the clubs met here at 12:30 and luncheon was serve by the girls of the Do- mestic Science Department under the direction of Miss Ryan and Miss Lenhart. The girls prepared and served a delicious luncheon. The tables were beautifully decorated with a color scheme of blue and gold. The favors which were made by some of the girls were in form of nut cups. The teachers contributed potted plants which helped beautify the tables. While the guests assembled the orchestra played several selections. As the men dined, the harmonica or- chestra, under the direction of bliss Snedden, played. The Boys'

The artists of the third group made a big hit with their audiences. Cochran is the only insti- tution in this city that sponsors such a fine program, yet it is not meeting with financial success. Some of our patrons are disap- pointed in that the Johnstowners are not taking, active interest in this enterprise. The Cochran auditorium was intended for ex- tending the education of the Johnstown people. It is here that the real musical education is sponsored. It was thought to make Johnstowners appreciate rm! music, played by world famous artists, and yet the results have been disappointing. With the growing interest on the part of the High School students, in musical lines, perhaps in a few years these courses will have the success so richly deserved. Program for the third series: October-Russian Symphonic Choir. November-Guy lllaier and Lee Pattison, Pianists. December-The Cleveland Symphony Orchestra, Nikolai So- koloss, Conductor. . January-Nlarie Tiffany, Soprano, and Carlos Salzedos, Harp- 1St. February-Efrem Zimbalist, Violinist. llflarch-Paul Althouse, Tenor, and Arthur lyliddleton Bari- 5 t011C.
