l l 1 ORCHESTRA 0 Music, sphere - descended maid, Friend of lileasure. NVisdom's aid! -Collins. The Good Counsel Orchestra was organized September 29th. 1928, under the supervision of Mr. Parker. F. lialilzky, formerly a member of the Chicago Civic Orchestra, was appointed a violin instructor. The thirty-three members enrolled, showed great interest by diligent practice. But Oh! the confusion of tones heard in the conservatory for the first few weeks! Yet, by December 3ltth, the orchestra was able to give its first concert. As a result, greater zeal and encourageinent filled the hearts of the amateurs. lt has so interested the other students of the School, that with the coming year, the membership increased and instrumentation enlarged. When the organization was but eight months old, it entered the Chicago School Band Contest and emerged with the first place in Class B High, receiving a banner of recognition. The year of 1929 brought us a new Director, Dr. A. .l. Prochaska, formerly a member of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. A second animal concert was given under Dr. Proehaska's direction and proved a success. The crowning feature of the 0rchestra's three-year existence was the concert held March 22nd, 1931. The rapid progress of the orchestra has been evident, and the members encouraged to continue their work. The School Orchestra entertained the Patients of the Municipal Tuberculosis Sanitarium, and greatly amused the in- mates of that institution. ln the course of its existence the organization has accomplished nmch in the field of nmsic. lt furnished music for all activities, social gatherings and amuse- ments adding greatly to their success. l'erseverance of the supervisors and the ef- forts of the members made the G. C. Orchestra a success. Josephine Piorkowska, '31.

f W ts 15 'W ' f ,,X E, 1 .4 -. 3 ft UAL C o U N s is L 0 Pc 1931.55 3 1' T Biology Club The Biology Club was organized at the High School by the class of 1930, to en- courage the students in scientific study. The officers of ,31 were: Miss Clara Kolacinska .....,................... President Miss Anna Tomkowicz .... . . . . .... Vice-President Miss Stella Wierzbowska . ..................... Secretary Meetings were held on the second Tuesday of each month in the Biology Lecture Boom, at which interesting discussions occupied greater part of the time. Trips were made to the Field Museum, Planetarium, Garfield Park Conservatory Zlllll Woodlands. These gave the members the privilege of observing various animals and birds in their natural environment. One of the most interesting trips was made to Shedd Aquarium where the members saw such wonders as: the Blue Striped Grunt with its big hlue eyes, and the Squirrel Fish with, its, pink scales and pink eyes. The marvelous Blue Crabs appeared as little movable toys. The trip to Lincoln Park Avium, where they met thousands of various species of birds, provided the true lovers of nature a splendid opportunity to satisfy their desires. The Club was a source of pleasure, interest and education, for it revealed to its members the glory of our Creator Whose greatness is manifested in the beauty of His creatures. The members of the Biology Club are greatly indebted to the Teacher of Science who so earnestly helped us to success. Marie Smulka, '31. The Booster Club The Booster Club was organized at Good Counsel High, for the first time, this year. The purpose of the club was to promote the 1931 Counselor, and arouse en- thusiasm for all school activities. The Club is composed of a group of active, sociable and affectionate girls, of the Senior, Junior, Sophomore and Freshmen classes. Their soliciting abilities have been shown in the Ad and Patron Campaign of 1931. These energetic and loyal supporters have gone far beyond their quota, in gathering a large number of ads and patrons for the Annual. This was a great aid in making the book a success. Honor is due to them, for they have devoted so much of their precious time in strenuous labor to accomplish the task set before them. VVe admire them for the example of loyalty which they have given all other students, as well as for the en- couragement and loyal support rendered to the institution. The members of this club who have shown willing and sincere cooperation are:- Seniors Juniors Sophomores Stephania Krauklis Lottie Szymczak Loretta Motzna Anna P'utyra Sophia Fiedor Harriet Litoborska Helen Brodkowicz Mary Chrzanowska Eugenia Ziemba Susan Miotke Helen Witek Mary Galas Freshmen Lillian Ostrowska Collete Thelen Bernice Staniszewska Julia Kulacz Lucille Gorlewska With more such active girls as the organization has had this year, the success in the future is ascertained. Special thanks are due to these girls for their energetic work. Their cooperation has been a great aid to us. Thus, the whole student body of Good Counsel High, wishes to express their gratitude, by saying to them: HVVE THANK YOU. Violet Kaczmaryn, '31, Page Eighty
