SCHOOL BELL ECHOES Page 13 The Operetta, The Sunbonnet Girl, was presented Friday evening, April 10. The Oper- etta was under the direction of Ernest H. Boyer, teacher of Music and English in the High School. BAND A Tri-County Contest (Elkhart, St. Joseph, and Laporte Counties), was held at South Bend, on Saturday, April 3. Of the ten first places in the s-ol-o contest, five were taken by Elkhart County memibers, and five by the members of the St. Joseph County Band. ' Frank Kavos and Corena Campbell were students participating in the contest from thds school. Frank Kavos won second place in the cornet section. The St. Joseph County Orchestra and Junior iBand won first places and the Elkbart County Blue Band (Senior Band) under the direction of A. R. Jinks, won first place. Mr. Jinks also re- ceived a medal for directing the winning band. The Senior Band members get sweaters this year. There are four Senior Band members in the Elkhart County Blue Band from Jamestown this year. Music in the County has become one of the most profitable and worthwhile parts of the school program. It is no douibt due to the time and ' interest that is spent in the County Band work; however, this year a new organization has been formed which has aroused much in- terest among the pupils of the County Schools. The Elkhart County Chorus has been organized on much the same plan as the Band. The or- ganization has (been meeting once each week since the first of the year in Goshen, under the d ' irection of Miss Gladys Minardow, Supervisor of Music in the Concord iSchools, and it prom- ises to ' become a growing and valuable organi- zation.

SEVENTH GRADE The pupils that have carried the class honors throughout the year are Mary Fallis, Zelma ScholfieW, Caroline Hendricks, Richard Robbing, Minyon Swarm and Vera Olson. Next year we hope the Seventh and Eighth Grade may be organized classes, because we are in Junior High School and believe we are capable of doing it. We are planning to, at any rate. We want to thank our teachers for doing their part in trying to make us successful stu- dents. We are anxiously awaiting next year, when we will be in the Eighth Grade, and also we are hHjking forward to our high school days. We are going io ])ui forth our best effort dur- ing these years to come. EIGHTH GRADE This Class of 1930-31 known as Eighth Graders, had an enrollment of 31 pupils. At the beginning of the year there were 14 girls and 17 boys. One girl has not attended school since the first of the second semester, making the enrollment 13 girls and 17 boys. The class of Eighth Grade scholars has not changed so much this year in knowledge as it has in haibit. There seems to be a feeling of some of the pupils as to lead them to believe they have many other important things to spend their time at than at their much-needed studies. We believe that we all could respond better in our classes and also with the teachers, if we would try. We are sorry that a number have been ab- sent because of sickness during the ' last semes- ter.
