N recent years the Orchestra and Band have played an increasingly important part in the musical activities both in and out of school. Under the leadership of Mr. Vonada, seventy-five students participate in providing the music every assembly. During the summer the Band marched in competition in local parades and won many first place prizes, as they displayed their talents and appeared resplendent in their new blue and gold uniforms. The Band played a concert at Idle- wild and have been invited again to play at the Stahlstown Flax Scutcheon. The Spring Concert for the Band is a regular highlight of the season. The Band Mothers of the P. T. A. have given freely of their time and ef- fort to help finance the new uniforms. The project paid for the uniforms in the short period of two years.

Our Chorus, under the direction of Miss Gilda Kamerer, is one of the most active organizations. The County Chorus, held at Young- wood High School this year included six Harrold Students: Ronald Bombach, David Miller, Hervey Steiner, Nancy Johnson, Nancy Stevey, and Glenda Bush. Other activities included singing for the Open House program and presenting the farce Romeo and Juliet as seen in the pictures opposite. The Christmas Assembly featured the Girls' Chorus. Top honors, of course, go to the Spring Concert, which is the big musi- cal event of the year. Eileen Zundel deserves praise for her fine work as the accompanist. fs

CWHE Girls' Athletic Association, un- der the leadership of Miss Fontan- ella, spends its meetings in softball, bas- ketball, volleyball and dancing. By participation in these games, a G. A. A. member earns points toward letter awards. Prominent in the activities of the or- ganization is the annual skating party and the attendance at a Pittsburgh Pirates' ballgame in May. Annually the G. A. A. members par- ticipate in a gym exhibition. After plans were made and some practice done, it was necessary to cancel the exhibition this year because of the unfortunate ill- ness of Miss Fontanella at a time when a VICE-PRESIDENT ......
