THE 1937 DERRIAN THE MALE CHORUS The Male Chorus is organized to provide an opportunity for the boys in the high school to gain a pleasurable experience in group singing and to aid them in becoming conscious of fine distinctions. This organ- ization is open to all boys in the high school. This chorus is an exrta-classroom activ- ity, and each member receives a fourth of a credit for each year of work. The group performs on various occasions and expects to participate in the May Festival at Greensburg, Pennsylvania, May 8, 1937. +++ THE GIRLS' CHORUS The Girls' Chorus is an organized activ- ity with Eleanor Crummy as president and Eleanor Kuntz as secretary. It is open to all high school girls accepted by the director. This organization uses an excellent type of secular and sacred music and offers unusual opportunity for a comprehensive growth in choral singing. This year the girls purchased robes which add dignity to their performances. The robes are white with blue collars and are most effective. May this be a tradition! This group performs each Christmas for the customary Candle Light service in the high school and, for the past two years has given delightful Christmas carol programs in the Derry Methodist Church. Further- more, the organization entertains the stu- dent body in enjoyable assembly programs and just recently sang for the Westmore- land County Teachers' Institute, at Greens- burg, Pennsylvania. It expects to partici- pate in the May Festival to be held at Greensburg, May 8, 1937. This event is sponsored by the Westmoreland County music supervisors. 1293
