Orchestra The first school orchestra of the Dover Borough and Dover Township Joint High School was organized by Clair Gingerich in 1932. This orchestra consisted of approximately fifteen members. After three years the leadership was turned over to Arthur Warfield. In 1941 Mrs. Jean Hatfield, who was elected music supervisor, became director of the orchestra, which position she maintained for two years. Miss Ethel Trimmer. who succeeded Mrs. Hatfield in 1943, is the present director. The orchestra, under the able direction of Miss Trimmer, has aided the school in many functions, by playing for school plays and assemblies. The orchestra furnished music during the program presented by the Sinclair Oil Company in the high school auditorium. The people who hold offices in the orchestra are as follows: President, Charles Guise: Vice-President, Janice Border: Secretary, Phyllis Small: Custodians, Richard Paules and Gurney Gross. A course of private instruction is given by Gingerich Music School to all pupils who wish to take lessons on any band or orchestra instrument. Each year at the beginning of the school term, new pupils are started on any instru- ment they desire to play. This will aid in the improvement of the orchestra in future years. We, of Dover Hi, are very proud of our school orchestra for we know that-it is an added feature to all our affairs and that it's enjoyed and appreciated by both the community and the school. 28 The' 1945 Memoscope

Home Ec The Home Economics Club of the Dover High School is an educational, as well as recreational club for the girls of the Home-Making Courses. The members of the club are having very interesting activities which were planned at the first meeting. The club meets during activity period every fourth Tues- day. Due to the infantile paralysis and Christmas vacation, some of the scheduled activities had to be postponed until a later date. The children's party and the Christmas party were two of the many entertaining events that took place this year and were a big success-both for the girls and their guests. The purpose of the Home Economics Club is to give the girls better knowledge and skill in planning parties, associating with acquaintances, and taking part in games. Mrs. Laudenschlager, the Home Economics teacher and club leader. taught the girls the correct way to arrange committees and the duties of various com- mittees. The officers of this year's club are as follows: President, Janice Border: Vice-President, Janet Baughmang Secretary, Gertrude Krone: Treasurer, Janet Gross: and Reporter, Marjorie Hershey. The girls of the Home Economics Club are patiently waiting for the weather to change so they can go on their annual breakfast hike which is the greatest event of the year. The 1945 Memoscope 29
