The group has put on several concerts this year, including the most prestigious, the Pops show, featuring student soloists. With each and every concert more new talent was exposed. In May the choir toured to San Diego to per- form for several sister schools there. This was Mrs. Wolfe's fifth year at Katella, and again she has brought out her groups talent.
