Creque, Mr. Roberts, Director: M. Rice, V. Pacquette, J. LaPlant, J. Durkee This year the band gained a new director, Mr. Roberts. We have all come to know Mr. Roberts well since he first entered Homer Central. The band is not an exclusive High School activity, in fact, there are more grade students than high school people in the organization. It was a familiar sight to see the music students going to the bowling alley for their lessons. On Wednesday and Friday during eighth periods, music would emerge from the gym where the band practiced. At the Christmas Assem- bly, a brass quartet played a few carols: John Folmer and Betty Buchanan played the trumpet, Don Van Liew and Dale Stoker played their coronets. They proved that the band was on the way to success. This year the band brought more and better music to Homer Central. tm fn? .3 ,, f' ef., Zan omit O, if gg, .wfwfwgfw . -1 42133 ug, 5, C552 V 0 .

Thompson Our glee club consisted of those who could sing and would work for good choral singing. Every Monday and Thursday in the kindergarten rooms at 3:15 you could hear them practicing. Over and over they would practice until they sounded nearly as good as Fred Waring's Glee Club. At Christmas time they sang carols for the Christmas Assembly. Every spring they Serenade the whole town with a concert. Linder Miss Whitborneis directions, the chorus had grown better and better. After practice, everyone in chorus would drift back to school singing excerpts from the music they had just practiced. The favorite seemed to be How Much Wood Could a Woodchuck Chuck?'7 The chorus kept the halls of Homer Central humminel L 26 J I ob Oiiiuifl, ' f 73 ,E fa? gtzsgpwaftom 2 All- OS 5 WSE O.

They invited all the former Tri-Y members from 1947 to 1950 to a good old-fashioned get-together. lt was some party with all those girls comparing notes on what they did at meetings! It was good to see old friends. This year's Tri-Y had a lot of fun on their own too. They started off with the informal initiation which provided some good laughs for the old members but sore parts for the new ones. The formal ini- tiation, which was very beautiful, made up for the first one. The old members also took their sisters to a spaghetti supper. By this time they were good friends again. For a project this year, the girls put on a program for the Old Ladies Home which depicted the changes in the past 50 years. They also collected money tag day for the Leisure Hour Library fund. Tri-Y entertained the whole school by sponsoring a mixer. But we think they had the most fun playing basketball even though they usually ended up giving Miss Aldous a sore arm until the next game. The Tri-V held their meetings on Thursday nights with Cary Hartquist beating the gavel and Mr. Kline backing him up. After the meetings they made a mad dash for the basketball court or the tumbling mat. Why no one was ever hurt in the bedlam we'll never know. They held an informal initiation which we heard was no joy ride. Everyone survived and was present for the formal initiation that was held the same evening as the Tri-Y's. After their separate initiations they had a dance. Around Christmas time they threw a big Christmas party. The tree was really beautiful but the present were on the dizzy side, but, even so, everyone had a good time. They also held a mixer to raise money and entertain us. Each member had to get rid of five tickets and everyonein high school ducked when they saw a Tri-V member coming. They also collected money for the Library fund on Tag Day. T281 jf Q N 2.2.1. am .
