The Chorus presented a radio program for National Education Week and was featured in a Christmas assembly. These students traditionally sing at the Spring Concert. Spring Festival, Commencement, and Baccalaureate services. This year several members participated in the annual All-State Sectional at New Paltz. Fifi! Rfiu--H. Shamrock. B, Mikalauslcas. 5 Lituin.

Let's do it again and get it right this timeln ln room 341 Miss Styles can be heard repeating this phrase over and over again. Running up and down the scales is a Glee Club effort to develop good tones. ln September a tape recorder for special vocal groups appeared on the scene.
