THE DORSET SCHOOL BAND In April, 1932, the Dorset School Band, under the excellent direction of Mr. Urho Seppelin, participated in the first Northeastern Ohio High School Band and Orchestra Festival at Kent, Ohio, where we were highly complimented for our fine playing. Our band was a part of the great one thousand-piece massed band which played a concert at the gymnasium of the Kent University in the evening. The next year, 1933, our band entered and won for the first time first place in the Ohio State Class CC Band Contest at Clearview, Ohio. In 1934, Dorset again tied for first place with Edgewood School Band of East Ashtabula, with a rating of Superior at the Northeastern Ohio District High School Class CC Band Contest. This made us eligible to compete in the Ohio State Contest at Columbus, which We did and Won second place, being beaten by Martel High School Band. In 1935, our band won the district contest for the third consecutive time. This contest was held at Berea, Ohio. Once more we went to the State Contest at Columbus, and this time emerged with first place honors and a rating of 'SHighly Superiorv, surpassing last year's contest winner, Martel, by two whole divisions. On May 18, 1935, the band broadcasted over Station WHK in Cleveland for fifteen minutes. In 1936, our band again won first place in the district contest at Ashland, Ohio. However, when the band competed in the State contest at Columbus, we took second place, Garretsville High School taking first. We received a rating of f'Excellent .

HIGH SCHOOL GLEE CLUB The Dorset High School Glee Club, under the leadership of Miss Roberts, started with forty-nineimembers, thirty-seven girls and twelve boys. Virginia McCoy was chosen pianist for the group. New song books, The Foresman Higher Book of Songs, were purchased by the school board for our use. VVe have found these of great value for the planning of special programs through- out the past year. Plans have been successfully carried out for the first of the animal spring concerts. The concert consisted of special numbers in unison by the chorus, whose efforts we hope are appreciated.---Vine Petrie. A Thirty-one
