'-: be 2: HowARD PORTER - - - - President KENT LEACH - Vice President MERRILL DEVOE - Secretary HARRY HADSELL Munaqer The Central High School Band was organized in 1922, and has been one of the most prominent musical organizations in the school. It was under the direction of J. N. DuPere until this year when it was placed under the super- vision of Mr. Mark Evans. At the beginning of this year a change in schedule was made which required practices held twice a week during the Hrst period on Tuesday and Thursday. In previous years. practices were held after school and the change is considered as a decided improvement because attendance is now compulsory, rather than merely optional. The band. on different occasions, has made public appearances playing in the auditorium for assembly. or at basketball games adding loyal school spirit as it played the battle song and Alma Mater for Central. Mr. Evans, as leader, has taught the boys much in how to play musically, march correctly, and Wear the uniform with dignity, all of which is greatly appreciated. mn lu eiqhl

Due credit should be given Central Junior High School for its entertain- ing operetta. This vear Junior High presented The Saucy Hollander. The scene of this two-act operetta takes place in the garden of a Dutch palace on a Summer's day. Amusing complications arise with the fascinating princess. Meanwhile the father of the princess is suffering from a dreadful sleeping sickness. The doctor, in a clumsy and hilarious manner. performs a brain operation uoon the king, Finally all complications are straightened out to eVeryone's advantage. Humor is supplied throughout by Hans, the stuttering tinker. Jean Morley and Donald Roberson portrayed the romantic leads of the beautiful and talkative princess and the handsome prince respectively. The other major roles were taken bv Hugh Day, the nervous king: Mariorie Chapf man. the charming queen and the real head ofthe kingdom: and Carlton Asher. the clever and interesting Doctor Ouick of the Royal Kingdom. The supporting cast was headedcl bv Richard McCormack. Hans: Jeanne Pond, Meena, his sweetheart: and Joe Freeman and Hollis McDonel. the sailors. Marcila Gamble and Ruby Neese will be remembered as the interesting Dutch singers. The success of this operetta was chiefly due to the able direction of Miss Jeanette Stuart. as dramatic coach: Miss Violet Lewis, as music director: and Miss Lyda Buchanan, as dancing director. ninety- nine
