CHORUS The High School Chorus this year had forty members and met twice a week. They have participated in three public functions during the year. At Christmas time they sang Carols with the lower grades for the annual school program. They presented a program of an entertaining and ' educational nature on January 15th in front of the assembly. On the evening of Good Friday they presented an Easter Cantata, Redemption Song. ORGANIZATIONS MUSICAL ARTS CLUB The Galesburg Musical Arts Club vras organized in 1937. It is federated and affiliated with other student music clubs throughout the state. Cur club has had a splendid record in the past years. In 1938 it was awarded a gavel at the state convention for having the only club scrapbook, and in ’39 closed with eighty-five points on the National Honor Roll. Only one state club received a higher number. More than 50 members are enrolled at the present time. The officers for this school year were, Shirley Sternaman, Beverly Paul, Patty Harper, Bernice Jackson, and Audrey Hoskins. SAFETY PATROL The Safety Patrol is a school organization of which we may feel justly proud. For the year 1939-40, Jack Conor was our captain, Robert Taylor and Robert Glazier were the lieutenants for the group, which numbered about 35 boys from the 5th thru the 9th grade. We are glad that there have not been any accidents to children on their way to and from school for the past sev¬ eral years. So let each one of us—parents, teachers, and students,--give credit where credit is due, to a group of boys who either by their guiding hand or by their presence, have for another year been instrumental in helping us through without a casualty. GIRL SCOUTS Galesburg now has a Girl Scout Troop of thirty—two members—four patrols. The leaders were Miss Roberta Dens- more and Hiss Olive Kugel. The Troop committee was Mrs. Elden Burgess, Mrs. Joe Bates, and Mrs. Floyd Smith. After the patrols were organized the year’s activities were confined to the earning of the Community, the Home¬ making, and the Arts and Crafts Badges. BOY SCOUTS The Boy Scouts were re-organized this year by Scout¬ master Ed. Frederickson with many new members. Business meetings were held on Mondays and recreational programs on Wednesdays. The troop was made up of two patrols. The Beaver and The Eagle, each having 13 members. r .
