Bernadette Ziegler The Girls Glee Club was organized at the beginning of the year under the direction of Miss Stephanie Ryznar. At that time there were 45 members, but only 43 completed the course. A lot has been accomplished and we hope Miss Ryznar has enjoyed working with the group, as she is new here. The officers were chosen as follows: Dorothy Pugsley, President; Helen Butler, Secretary; Lucille Skinner, Librarian; Rosemary Malburg, Assistant Librarian; Jean Purdy, Pianist. Several activities were participated in during the year, among which was a concert given on March 5. The Sunbonnet Gii 1, the annual operetta, was given on April 25 in combination with the Boys Chorus. The two choruses participated in the West Shore Music Festival at Muskegon in May. This very successful year was concluded at Commencement Exercises, where the Glee Club presented several selections. The purpose of the Glee Club is to give vocal training to all students who are interested and eligible for membership. This also helps the student to have a better appreciation of music and adds to the culture of the community. Many of the members and alumni are now singing with local church choirs. page eighteen

BOYS' CHORUS The Hoys’ Glee Club consisted of thirteen members, which was an increase over the previous years. A large part of the first semester was spent in preparation for the annual concert given in February, and also on numbers that were used at an assembly program. During the early part of the second semester the boys worked on material for the West Shore Music Festival held at Muskegon in May. All of the members took part in the High School Operetta, “The Sunbonnet Girl,” given on April 25, either with leads or chorus parts. The Glee Club was under the direction of the new vocal instructor, Miss Stephanie Ryznar. Miss Ry nar. Charles North. Bruce Shigley. Ward Nelson. Milton Pugslcy, Arvid Wheeler, Carl Doer inn.
