. . Heart, a Harp HE B.xroN, shared by Miss Huxtable and Mr. Klose in H.M.S. Pina- fore, is shown opposite in the hands of Miss Huxtable. She is leading the orchestra and the principals in one of those frequent rehearsals of the opera. This picture shows how one department works not only for itself, but in one large unit for the sake of dear old Centralf' Instead of home room parties this year. a new type of Christmas program was in- augurated. After the choir's carols, Santa Claus entered with his Living Christmas Tree and Brownies. Qliy the way, pupils are still trying to find out who the tree really was.j The Brownies, pictured in the opposite panel, distributed bags of Carmel corn to the capacity Hlled auditorf ium. The program seemed to be enjoyed by everyone, including those who don't believe in Santa. Two years ago, Central's dance orchestra deteriorated by graduation. For this rea- son, the whole orchestra split. This year several ambitious boys, deciding that Cen- tral needed a dance orchestra, formed, with the help of Mr. Klose, the Musicians' club. The group has Hnished its first suc- cessful year by playing for class night per- formance. Although Don Manthe is the leader of the orchestra, Grant Kittle is pic- tured leading it at one of its rehearsals. A Cappella Choir nl Row: S. Cold'-line. A. Wlark. Y. Knight K. Young. I. Mintz. D.

One for All, ll for Une PPORTUNITY for departments to work together on an immense project is best shown by the biennial opera production. This year Gilbert and Sullivanis NH. M. S. Pina- forew was chosen by Miss Marion Huxtable, choral director. Mr. Leroy Klose directed the orchestra. Although first a musical show, Pinafore,' offered a delightful medium for work in dramatics, art, manual arts, journalism, commercial, home economics, and physical education. The whole presented a satisfying blended piece of created art. Miss Ruth Diekhoff, dramatics director, worked for interpretation. The gay sets of the Queen's naveen were designed by Miss Goodwyl Post and her classes, while Mr. Bond and his boys actually built the sets. Iournalism students, under the direction of Mrs. Beda Hand Moore, wrote a series of publicity stories for the local newspapers and The Mirror. Mr. Harold Pollock, sponsoring a committee of students who took care of Finances, repre- sented the part done by the commercial department. Home economics department represented a channel of activity, for costuming is an impor- tant cog in such a production as Pinafore. Miss Frances Metz was in charge. Dances make for colorful and impressive scenes in this riot playf, and Miss Marguerite Shepard, physical education, directed the dances. Ushers' Club, involving about 25 boys under the supervision of Mr. R. L. Liebenberg, always come in for their share of service at all school functions. Individuals, too, found opportunity to get experience as well as to give service. Ralph Hatfield, a member of the Photography Club, took candids and posed shots of scenes and members of the cast.
