Henry Clay High School - Slashes Yearbook (Ashland, VA)

In 19 9, the glee club under the very capable direction of Mr. William S. Troxell, presented its 8th annual operetta, Nieet Arizona, a dude ranch comedy and romance of the far west. This production required many hours of hard work and was presented two nights in the high school auditorium filled with citizens of Ashland and Hanover County. The money raised from this operetta is given to the library for the benefit of the whole school. Last year the glee club attended the annual spring festival which was held in Richmond at the Thomas Jefferson High School. We received a rating of 2 which is equal to excellent. We expect to attend it once again next year and we hope to do as well. Mr. Troxell, Director Carlene Mitchell, Accompanist First row.

Many new members have been added to it this year. We played in the Festival last Spring and came out with a 2 rating. Next year w-e hope to do better. The band played for the Kiwanis Club and for several football games. We also played at the Faculty-Student” basketball game and have tried to help the college out a little at their games. Even though we lost many of our good players, we have made out fine and hope to have as good a season next year. 34
