BAND This accomplished musical or- ganization has completed a very suc- cessful year. They participated at every home game during the foot- ball season, marched in various local parades, performed at our school as- semblies, at the Music Festival, and at the All-State Competition. They are a shining example that hard work insures success. Mr. Bow- ser met them every morning before school, and their faithful practicing under his experienced supervision made them the polished unit of which we are all so proud.

GIRLS, GLEE CLUB l'nder the artful direction ot' Mr. Townley S. Bowser, this group of girls performed capably throughout the year, They provided entertain- ment at the Varsity Revue, at the Music Festival and at some of our special assemblies. With their many Hne songs and voices, they were praised highly by every audience that was fortunate enough to hear them. T DEERING BELLES Everyone loves to sing, especially our young ladies at Deering High. Mr. Bowser, our musical director, was so impressed with the number of good voices tested that he was only too happy to form a second choral group for the girls. This group likes to call itself the Deering Belles, but at any of our musical activities, they join the other unit as part of our girls' glee club BOYS' GLEE CLUB This group has only been or- ganized for two years, but it has proved to be one of the most popu- lar clubs among the boys who enjoy singing, and also the girls who en- joy listening and daydreaming to their enchanting melodies. Under the direction of hir. Townley S. Bowser, the boys have brought fine talent to our school. -i
