OFFICERS President - - - - - BILL HELSER Vice-President KENNETH ROTHLESBERGER Secretary - - - KING CHAvoUs Treasurer - - HOWARD KELLER Director - MR. CLARK HE Junior Band was organized in 1933 by Mr. Mark Evans. For the first few practices the noise that came from that group of young and as- , piring musicians was terrific. They spent weeks learning to play the scales on their instruments. Since that time the Junior Band has grown in size until this year it has a total membership of forty-five, the largest it has ever had. Although pupils in Senior High may join the Junior Band, it is comprised mostly of Junior High pupils. The Junior Band will accept as members pupils who own instruments and wish to play in a band. Members of the Junior Band usual-ly become members of the Senior Band, so the organization of the Junior Band is similar to that of the Senior Band. If you were at the Lima Stadium during the flag-raising ceremonies on Thanksgiving Day, you saw the Junior Band march down the field with the Senior Band. Also you may have noticed their attractive uniforms which con- sist of red overseas caps, scarlet sweaters, and white trousers. ' This year the Junior Band participated in the Junior High May Festival and did a splendid piece of work. Several years ago Mr. Clark took upon his shoulders the task of directing the Junior Band. He is to be especially congratulated for this year's work. Members of the band not included in the picture are William Basinger, Peter Rippins, George Roberts, Robert Schugg, Dick Schun, and Donald Welker. -JOHN KEMPH eighty-nine

Boys' Glee Club OFFICERS President - - - - BRUCE ROBINSON Vice-President - - - GEORGE MILLER Secretary - JAMES VJELTY Pianist' - MAMIE Cl-llLES Director' - - MR. EVANS LTHOUGH there were fewer and less experienced Vocalists in thc club this year than last, the Boys' Glee Club, founded twenty-three years ago, enjoyed a very successful season. Every Tuesday, the sixth period, this club met in the auditorium. During 1937-1938, the Boys' Glee Club, combined with the Senior Mixed Chorus, sang in various assemblies to the great delight of the appreciative audience. This year at Kenton on the eighth of April, the annual eisteddfod was held, in which the Boys' Glee Club and the boys' octet participated. The club sang My Bonnie Lass, She Smileth , while the octet, composed of Charles Peterson, George Miller, John Kemph, Richard Meilly, Howard Laman, Gene Miller, Neal Kessler, and Herbert Gefell, sang Water Boy . The three schools which competed in this Eisteddfod, were Marion, Kenton, and Central. Mr. Evans, always near or at the top in musical competition, should be congratulated on his moulding of the glee club into a formidable group of singers. Mamie Chiles should also be commended on her splendid job as accompanist. ' -NEAL KESSLER ninety-one
