GRC!-IESTl2A NCDTES During the past year the school orchestra has risen to new heights in the field of music, and its youthful members are becoming more accomplished with the passing of every prac- tice. Under the guidance and perseverance of the leader, Mr. H. Tufts. the orchestra is gradually becoming recognized as a great as- set to the school. We have filled numerous engagements so far this season. some of which were at Kew Beach School. the Commencement Exercises, the Merchandising Display and at Woodgreen United Church. The annual sleighing party was of course out of the question this year. The postpone- ment of this event was a great disappoint- ment to the orchestra members and their friends who have enjoyed the previous out- ings. However. plans are under way for a Forty , , by ED. PORTER social. but the exact date has not been de- cided. There are two members of the orchestra this year who should receive honorable men- tion. The first is jim Virtue. whose remarkable whistling ability has brought him encore after encore in his rendition of The Whistler and His Dog. A Whistler who can be heard above a full orchestra is something of which few orchestras can boast. and we are indeed for- tunate in having him with us. The second is Herb, Yates. a new member this year, who has proved himself to be a whirlwind player on the bells and Xylophone. His bells in Goldman's On the Mall has given new life to that famous march. As a well known newspaper columnist says, Or- chids to them. EASTERN ECHO
