F. verett Dailey Faculty Advisor ..,..................................................................... Miss Evangeline Flohr Since last year, the boys seem to have acquired talent in the way of sing- ing. Also, they have become very exclusive, numbering only seventeen. The boys took part in the P. T. A. Christmas Festival, arranged a Chapel program-a mock wedding which resulted in cabbage throwing, helped the Girls' Glee Club in the annual operetta, journeyed to Fredonia to take part in the Music Festival, and now commencement activities are in view. Two important questions remain: 1. How many of us are going to be accepted members of Glee Club next year? 2. Are we going to have another party at Midway this year? Our Crchestra The orchestra is one of our oldest musical organizations, but the strong interest in the band of late has caused interest in it to wane slightly. However, the members have Worked hard on their music this year and some good work has been done, under the leadership of Miss Evangeline Flohr. The orchestra made two public appearances this year, the night of the Senior Play, March 17th, and the P.T.A. Music Festival. The members of the Orchestra are: Madeline Russell Paul Blair ......... Violin Violin Lura Bucklin .............. ..........., V iolin Olive Ingleson ........ ........... V iolin jack Smith ................... .............

22 THE CARDINAL - 1932 The Girls' Glee Club The Girls' Glee Club, under Miss Flohr's capable leadership is emerging from a most successful year with no debts, some extra money, and many suc- cessful public appearances to its credit. In December, 1931, the club pre- sented the memorable 'Knicker-bocker Club for chapel-a night club scene with universally known vocalists and stars present who contributed to the pro- gram, such as Kate Smith, Ruth Etting, Polly Moran and Madame Schumann- Heink. Then came the annual operetta, which was rather brief this year be- cause the chapel program was to be repeated at the same time. Yet despite its brevity The Radio Maid was a successful venture. The cast was as follows: june Worthington .......,... .....,,.... J osephine Van Vlack Robert Holbrook ........ .......,................ L avern Waid Mr, Holbrook .........., .,,........ A rchie Anderson Mrs. Holbrook ......... .......... C onstance Attwood Mabel ...........,............ ..,,..,.... V irginia Stafford joe ................ .,.....,..... R obert Klock Mary ........... ...............,..... H elen Freed Hazel .......... ......... M ary Louise Coe Alice ........,,..................................,.,.......................,.,,......,..................... Mary Frances Isbell The Boys' Club Club assisted in the operetta. A dance at the village hall was held afterwards for the members of the cast and friends. After the operetta all attention was turned to Fredonia. Innumerable dif- ferences arose as to what the costume should be this year. Finally after much hair pulling and teeth clenching sweaters of blue and white were de- cided upon-which were very effective with the white skirts and which caused very favorable comment at Fredonia. Then, one mustn't forget the several bake sales scattered throughout the year to raise funds. Now a committee is planning a party for the girls-similar to last year's roller-skating affair which will be held in the immediate future. The last appearances of the Girls' Glee Club will be at the June Parent Teachers Meeting and at Commencement or Class Night. Following are the officers who presided during the past year: President ..................,.......................,..............,.,.......,. .........

24 THE CARDINAL - 1932 Our Band Our Lakewood High School Band began its second year of work early last fall, under the capable leadership of Mr. Arthur R. Goranson. It made two public appearances before Christmas, one at P. T. A. and one at Chapel, besides playing at every home basketball game during the winter. During the Spring it played on the May Day Festival Program and on the P.T.A. Musical Festival Program. B In January, several new members were added, making the total enrollment thirty-two. The new members, as well as the old ones, worked hard on several new selections, and the band was well represented at the Fredonia Festival, April twenty-ninth. The members of the band are at present: Hugh Clark ............................,....... solo trumpet Dorothy Terrill ..............................,...........

Mellophone The encouragement and boosting that everyone has given the band has aided greatly in its success last year and this year, and every member wishes to take this opportunity to thank every student of Lakewood High, parents, friends, and teachers for the kind cooperation given. We sincerely hope that the band shall go forward and climb to far greater heights than it has today, and that many new members will be ready to start work next fall. Band work is one of the most fascinating and interesting outside activities, and we, that are leaving it, leave it with a feeling of deep appreciation and a strong hope that many others will learn to value it as we have. Every band member gladly gives honor where honor is due-to Mr. Ar- thur R. Goranson, for we esteem him not only for his musical appreciation and ability but also as a man. D. T. 732
