Prall, who has been able to give all his time to the senior and junior high school, we have been very active in the music de- partment. To most of us the most unexpected achievement has been the organization of a band which incjudes fifty-four boys and girls. The band made its debut at the Parent- Teacher Association on Fathers' Night when the boys and girls entertained fathers and mothers in the gymnasium. 1 'The senior high orchestra with forty-three members meets twice a. week and surely does show the result of hard work and careful supervision. We have played for the school plays and have given, a few programs in assembly. The junior high orchestra with thirty-seven members is progressing and will furnish material for the senior high school next year. - The boys' glee club whose forty-two members show considerable interest in their -work has given a program in assembly and also one for the Parent-Teacher Associa- tion. ' The girls' glee club with ninety-five members is the largest musical group. They also entertained on Fathers' Night at the Pa-rent-Teacher Association meeting and in additionisang over radio station WBMS on March 9. The comments of praise from their unseen audience were gratifying to the girls as well as to Mr. Prall. In the junior high the boys and girls ha-ve no glee clubs, but in separate music classes they are doing two- and three-part singing. g The Easter program in assembly was given by all the musical clubs, the boys' and girls' glee clubs being combined for the first time.

1930 THE TIONEER 1930 ai 15.1942 -Z.aDai'Z.aJa?':c.aDaf'Z.aba2'z.aD.a? Zinn? -1535? 1330? Zh: The Weekly Assemblies During the current year the assemblies have taken place on Tuesdays during the activity period. We students were interested in these assemblies because it gave us a chance to get together as a whole and also gave us opportunities for self ex- pression. Music has taken a large part in the program. The orchestra played a march as the school entered and left the auditorium. Members of the orchestra occasionally entertained the audience with solo pieces. The performances of the glee clubs have always been heartily applauded by the school. Comments on the band, on its merits, and on its future were heard all over the school weeks before and after its first appearance. We do not forget the special programs that were given before Christmas and Easter. Mr. Prall does indeed deserve cornmendation for his persistance in training these music groups. The programs themselves have been varied and interesting. Perhaps the most exciting ones were the debates. Despite our lack of class organization, our enthusiasm was shown in hearty, altho short-lived, attempts at cheering and good natured par- tisanship. There have been two plays, one an adaptation from Silas lVIarner,' and the other an exciting one-act play entitled Where The Cross Is Made. Silas Marner was well done and we were gratifiedwith the smoothness with which it was presented. Where The Cross ls Made held us tense until the curtain closed. Then there was the tumbling act. Only mention of it need be made and we recall the diving, tumbling, acrobatic Junior High boys doing their stunts. lfVe were particularly interested in the book talks and addresses. The addresses have been on various subjects, a talk for organizing the band, another for organizing the banking system, and still another on Bergen county. Then there was the moving picture lecture on the Sun and the particularly entertaining talk on Byrd's Antartic Expedition. Altogether the assembly programs constitute an important part of the school's activities. ROBERT Cmzrtrov '30 57
