GLEE CLUB The Glee Club of 1966-67 wos a small, busy, and cheerful group of cheerful people. They practiced hard every Monday and Thursday nights after school and every performance they gave bore witness to this fact. They performed their Christmas repertoire in a South- side Community Program at Center and also a one-half hour color television show which was on WDAF Dec. 25 and 27. The Glee Club also worked many hours on our musical put on with our Drama Club and Rockhurst High School. They also sang No Man is an Island , a favorite of the Seniors, and several other songs at graduation. A lot of hard work went into the musical but the per- formers also received much enjoyment. 2A

Their works were varied, yet all had one purpose. To help those in need. The work was rewarding as well as useful and was done in the true Loretto spirit. 26 Finding out that the winner in the Mission Drive was the Senior Class, was an uncomplicated problem of the Mission Club.
