There have been opportunities for ac- companying offered to seniors, and Jane Forgrave has been called upon to accom- pany in a variety of activities. The class of 1930 has followed the pre- cedent established by last year ' s class and original songs have been composed from which a song to be sung at graduation will be chosen. Phyllis Braun, Ruth Davidson, Jane For- grave, Sophronia Harris, and Russell Pelton, along with the other underclass members of the theory classes, participated in the origi- nal composition program last spring. Their contributions were compositions for piano, violin, voice, and string and flute quartet selections. Among the activities which the seniors have worked in is the Music Memory Con- test. Jane Forgrave and Russell Pelton have been members of the team which represented E. T. H. S. Students who have taken advantage of the opportunities afforded to broaden their ex- perience in the field of instrumental music- are Ruth Davidson, violin, Jane Forgrave, piano, Beatrice Gratiaa, horn. Gene Nastri, violin and piano, and Russell Pelton, flute. A considerable number of the seniors have at some time in their high-school course taken advantage of the work offered in music appreciation and theory of music. Those who have been able to take ad- vantage of the musical training afforded realize that they have received an inestimable gift through the contact with and partici- pation in music. — Russell Pelton, ' 30.

ROOM 124 A bell bongs. Three hundred and one juveniles jump as one for their own seats in the model assembly room, 124. These per- sons all have one thing in common, although no one would guess it: each has twelve or more credits won by hook or crook in three or more years and no one knows how many summers of struggle. No longer do the students chant the morning ritual of, Good morning, dear teacher, we ' re all in our places with bright shining faces, etc., but confine themselves to the weekly singing of No, John, no. In this way 124 becomes akin to one big happy family. On other mornings future orators arise to incite their fellow students to come to the Camera Club meetings or to restrain their lunch period activities to eating. More bells bong. Between periods the more socially inclined inmates of room 124 flutter unjustifiably hither and yon, while the earnest members stalk diligently to their classes automatically saying hello to all the people they don ' t know and failing to greet their acquaintances. By lunch time every one has worked him- self up into such a studious frenzy that he rushes to obtain his vitamins so that he can return to his mecca, room 124, with all possible haste. But then with a few students comes a slight let down. Indeed, they feel a great yearning for a siesta coming over them. However, by the eighth period they are beginning to be themselves again. This they demonstrate by making very peculiar noises, to which the presiding Mr. Ulrey generally gives a studied and scholarly reply. And then the day is over for the poor, abused assembly room. But not so for the athletes who must hie unto the field; not so for the one — or perhaps two — who is — or are — in the habit of studying occasionally; not so for the girls who must find an escort to Cooley ' s or Dittmer ' s; and not so for the teachers who engage themselves concocting most annoying activities for the ensuing day ' s classes. The seats and some echoes alone remain in dear old room 124 and it patiently recom- mences its nocturnal vigil until once more the eight-thirty bell calls back the gang of laborers to further test her temper and durability. — Randell Cook.
