IT’S 11:05 and from tha music room we h ;ar ihe voices of ihs Sanior High Mixed Chorus. Lei's go in and join them. We find seals and Mr. Phelps, the director, hands us the music so we may follow along. He explains to us that this is the Pilgrims' Chorus by Wagner which the chorus sang at Chisago City in the Fall Music Festival. The group has been very active in taking part in school programs and outside functions for the past two years. Oh, a different selection is being given out. Let's see what this one is. We are told this number is the one chosen for the District Contest held at Anoka in April. The name of it is Peasant and his Oxen. Just time for one more number before the belt so we listen with pleasure to O Blest Are They and then prepare to leave for lunch. All members of the chorus seem to be trying hard to make their chorus one of the outstanding musical organizations of the school.

Why il's io be (he best band in the stale. Under ihe leadership of Mr, Phelps, the Forest Lake band has had a very successful year—playing for pep fests, assemblies, basketball and football games, music festivals at Chisago City and Anoka, and of course the annual spring concert. There are sixty actu- al members of the band and about twenty-five beginners. The school has bought many fine new instruments, and there is enough ability to produce one of the finest bands in ths state. The president is Wallace Langdon,- vice-president, Mae Swenson, and Mary Hendrickson is custodian of capes and caps. Well, here's hoping we'll see you at the national mu;ic contest ne :i year.

Coach Von Wald, STARTING THE 1939-40 basketball season, found the Forest Lake live on the Chi Hi floor. Al- ter a thrilling battle, the Rangers bowed to a 25-19 deieai. The boys came back by defeating Mahiomedi 32-17. One of the outstanding battles of the year came when the North St. Paul quintet handed the Rangers a defeat of 33-31, in an overtime period. White Bear over- powered us on our own floor to chalk up another defeat for the valianl Rangers. Again the Rangers, bolstered by their undying courage, made a desperate attempt to regain their winning streak, but again they were overcome by the mighty Columbia Heights team. After vacation and n victory over the alumni, the boys lost to the Stillwater Ponies by a margin of 10 points. Though the season had not been too successful the boys never gave up hope. They proved this by handing Chi Hi a defeat of 29-23. Again the boys showed their strength by whipping the Zephyrs 43-17. The boys were handed a smear, when the unde- feated Lakeside proved stronger by ending up 11 points ahead of us. Columbia Heights and While Bear again kept us trailing. The Rangers caught the Bears' offnighi and tripped them 25 23. This caused another game to be played between the two learns. Evening the score with Chisago the boys defeated them 26-22. Losing to North Branch the boys ended a hard fight with North St. Paul by losing in a close battle. This ended our chances for the tournament and also closed the season.
