MUSIC You should drop in to some Friday afternoon assembly and hear the student body sing- ing rounds! It would really be a treat, for it sounds like a true singing school. This is what the music department wishes to be-the fun department. More and more Daycrofters are learning to appreciate good music. Every Friday seventh period there is a large group that gathers to learn of the development of music and to hear symphonies. Then we have the true spirit of singing in the girls' glee club. Betty Garber says it's the most fun she has all week. Leilah MacRobert and Elizabeth Sheridan hold down the alto part against a real barrage of sops . For we have Muriel, Elinor, Iackie, Mangels, Marion Handy, Karen, Diana, Betsy Graf, and Patsy Elmer. As the girls join the glee club they must sing alone for the group-so recently Violet and Virginia Handy joined up with us. The girls demanded an audition. Virginia was Mary in our Christmas Play, so after her lovely performance she quite prepared to accommodate. 'Violet was taken by surprise but she did well. The glee club sang two Bach Chorales for our Christmas celebration. While speaking of the Christmas play, Don Casanave as Ioseph did a grand job opposite Mary . Karen Pearch and Peter Mclntosh were fine lnkeepers. Now we come to the department of pluggers-the orchestra. They aspire to such num- bers as Prelude to Act 3 of Lohengrin, Minuet from Haydn's Military Symphony, Andante from Tschaikowsky's Fifth Symphony, Theme from Beethoven's Second Symphony. Two faculty members help to support our eight students who give their all in seventh period on Thursdays. Betsy Lang and Mrs. Smart give the melody in the first violins, Karl Lang and Virginia Forbes give us the harmony on second violins. Don Bly flutes his way while Dick Guilbert clarinets his. Lewis Bly helps our versatile senior Don Starrett with his trum- pet. Don has taken up the French horn and plays it on some numbers. Mr. Kinsman holds forth with either his clarinet or his big saxophone and gives us a good bass. Munro Merrick plays all other parts including his own on the piano most efficiently. The orchestra played the Russian number- March of the Sirdar by Iwanow for our Washington-Lincoln Banquet, also a fine arrangement of the Star Spangled Banner, which Mr. Kinsman made for our group. Along in February everyone including the orchestra were in rehearsals for the Gilbert and Sullivan operetta Pinafore which Daycroft-is giving this year on International Day. Iohn Albee, Iohn Ramseyer, lack Palacios, Don Bly and Dan Starrett have been chosen for the male leads, While Iackie Wootton, Elinor Warren and lackie Mangels will be the prima donnas. as l
