SIGILLUM GLEE CLUB AND ORCHESTRA At the time of the Division Street school the Glee Club was a well-established and finished organization, it gave presentations throughout the school year, entertaining the school in a very pro- fessional manner. With the new school the singing of the upper school members was confined to informal groups in the music room, until in 1935, following the leadership of the Dramatic Club, lVIr. Brannigan organized a group into the Glee Club. Interest was aroused and the group grew, the next year it ventured forth with an amusing and successful revue. The third year a comic operetta under hir. Sample's leadership was very well received. However the club, also meeting weekly, accomplished a good deal more than its productions. Christmas carols and other songs have been pre- sented in assembly from time to time. This year the group has confined itself to singing and, with the help of hir. lWcCarthy, has developed nicely. It is a young group that he has trained, so that we can look forward to some very successful results next year. An orchestra has long been threatening to become a tradition of the school, and it has made its appearance several times. This year Nfr. lWcCarthy has been hard at work, coaxing and coaching the project along so that next year the orchestra will probably be very much of a reality. 1 l PHOTOGRAPH or THIS Ysmfs ANNt'Ai, Foo'rBAL1.
