Active Year for Glee Clubs The beginning of the 1961-1962 school year found M rs. Sarah Jane Branstetter, chorus director, recruiting boys to form a boys glee club. The boys glee club rose to a total membership of seventeen. The music department bought white coats which went with dark trousers and black bow ties to compose the official uniform of the boys’ glee club. The girls’ glee club increased to forty-eight members since the previous school year. The official uniform is white blouses and dark skirts. The LHS chorus performed at many different functions. Small ensembles performed at many churches in the area and at many school-sponsored activities. This year the first Quint City All-Conference Chorus was formed. Eleven LHS chorus members represented LHS in the group. They were: Pat Wickell, Charlotte Dewey, Susie White, Martha Miller, Barby Woolcott, Janet Millner, Karen Millner, Mary Lou Kilby, Dennis Goodman, Kenny Lee, and Bill Bass. Along with all of its other activities, the girls' glee club attended the district music contest at Mexico. The group received a II rating on Dona Nobis Pacem. Besides the girls' glee club, a boys’ quartet, girls' quartet, girls' trio, girls' sextet and six solos attended the meet. The two quartets and the trio received I ratings and the sextet received a n. Vocal solos which received II ratings were performed by Barby Woolcott, Bill Bass, Mike Griffith, and Dennis Goodman. Peggy Smith and Charlotte Dewey received III ratings on their solos. At the state contest, the girls' quartet and the girls' trio received III ratings. The boys' quartet was unable to attend. Martha Miller, Ara Lewellen, and Bill Bass took piano solos to the district contest. Martha and Ara received I ratings and Bill received a II rating. At the state contest Martha received a I rating and Ara received a II. We take this opportunity to thank Mrs. Sarah Jane Branstetter for her fine work with the vocal music department during the past two years. Working on short notice many times, she always came up with an entertaining program for the listeners. A fine job such as this deserves commendation. Boys’ Quartet Bill Bass, Bob Wortman, Bob Campbell, and Dennis Goodman. District Rating: I
