Dillon, R. Semple SENIOR CHORUS President J on PAYTON Adviser Miss MILLER The Junior Chorus consists of girls in all terms who enjoy singing and have some musical ability. Under the excellent direction of Miss Miller the chorus performs at commencements and other special events during the school year. This term the chorus was featured at a special program honoring Judge Colden, and at the school's Spring Concert. The girls are given a chance to discover their musical talents and many former members have been given wonderful opportunities in the musical world. Students from terms five to eight may belong to the Senior Chorus, which is also under the direction of Miss Miller. Besides participating in activities with the Junior Chorus, members having outstanding voices sing with the All City High Chorus. The two choruses are certainly a credit to Miss Miller and the Music Department of the School. They give boys and girls with talent a chance to perform at many school assemblies, to the enjoyment of all. We always look forward to their appear- ances at the annual Christmas show and at the G.O. rallies. Flushing is fortunate that so many students are interested in good music so that they may bring us songs that have been favorites through the years.

Charlip, R. Sylvester. Nl. Burchette The orchestra, under the direction of Mrs. Piedra. has hecome one of the school's most important artistic organizations. This group is divided into two sections, the junior and the Senior Orchestras. The main function of the ,lunior Orchestra is to train promising but inexperienced student instrumentalists in orchestral playing. The Senior Orchestra is the principal performing division of this organization and is made up of more seasoned musicians. This group plays at all of the important scholastic functions. including assemblies. special concerts. such as the annual Spring Concert. and at graduation exercises, where they perform the processional and recessional marches. We wish this hard working group continued growth and prosperity in the dissemination of happiness through the medium of music. M imeo Squad One of the least known though most vital of service groups is the Mimeograph Squad. under Mr. lleimeris direction. Most administrative notices are mimeographed by these hard working printers. They also aid the school's departments by printing necessary material for them. 18
