1942 Mixed Chorus The name chorus means a company of singers and their song. The adjective mixed implies that the chorus is made up of both masculine and feminine voices. As in the past few years, our group, composed of thirty-five members, a goodly number for a small school, was under the direction of Miss Marjorie Howe. A fine performjance and a high rating at the contest were our aims. March 28 found us on our way to Clearview for the Lorain County Band and Choral Contest to return with a rating of Superior which entitled us to go to Fremont to the District contest of April ll. At Fremont 'we received the rating Superior and so went to the State contest at Columbus 'on April 25. The songs we sang are f',Suomi,s Song by Pacius and Treharne and Madame Jeanette by Alan Murray. tariff Band When the director of the band, Mr. Moore, brought his baton downto begin another year of diligent practice there were twenty-two members pres- ent, but this number was soon increased to thirty. The first public appearance of the band was at the P. T. play when it played between acts Q- thrilling experience because the band came out in uniforms of blue and white. It was the first time for any of the Henrietta organizations to have uniforms. Practice for the contest numbers, Komm Susser Tod by Bach and Golden Century Overture by Lake, was started and as the weeks flew by it was soon time to present the band at Clearview, where the members received the rating of Superior which entitled them to go to the District contest. Each one threw in his best efforts for a second good performance entitling them to an Excellent rating and a journey on to the State contest at Colum- bus. All these contests had taken the band to the last lap of the school year and when the disbanding time came for the summer, all members left with the gratifying feeling of having done satisfactory work.

1942 Girls Glee Club This group of nineteen girls together with their instructor Miss Mar- jorie Howe, started the year with the usual pu-pu-pul' and deep breathing exercises. Then whe11 all voices were in shape they started on the contest numbers entitled The Chestnut Tree by Schumann and Sister Awake by Jacob. On March 28 they journeyed to Clearview to take part in the Lorain County Choral Contest. and to receive the rating of Excellent for their efforts. The girls then disbanded Glee Club to turn all their efforts to the Mixed Chorus, 'A' 'lr 'A' 'A' ir Boys Glee Club Wheii the Boys Glee Club assembled this year we found it to be the smallest group of boys in quite a number of years. We did our work undaunted by this fact, however, and the weeks soon flew by until, on the morning of March 28, we journeyed to Clearview with our hearts and hopes high. We sang Homeland and Tiritomba in the contest and were rewarded for our hard work by receiving a rating of Super- ior. Again we wish to thank Miss Howe for her efforts which contributed so much toward making our singing a success. We all enjoyed our glee club work and hope for the success of next year's group.
