A green Glee Club of twenty-five girls was tossed together soon after Christmas vaca- tion by Mrs. Sweeney. It was peppered with knowledge of notes and time, for season- ing, and was soon tried at Farrner's Institute. The taste wasn't quite right and new pieces of material were purchased as work was started again this time three-part music was tried. When almost ready to give up in despair, someone turned on the light. What it needed was men, A group known as , the Barber Shop Quartet was ' A formed and these plus four . others made up what is an addi- tion to the Glee Club.

One of the oldest organizations at Madison High is the Booster Club. Each year the Booster Club provides transportation at a nominal cost for its members to the athletic contests away from home and at the completion of the Athletic season it sponsors a banquet honoring members of the teams. The Banquet, the highlight of the school year as far as athletics is concerned, is a commun- ity project and each year more than three hundred fans gather at the gym to honor members of the teams. ' John Lewellen, an assistant professor of education at Ball State Teachers College, was featured as the speaker at this year's banquet. He emphasized the necessity for working harder in practice than will ever be expected of one in a contest. g The Boys 'Quartette made its first appearance at the banquet and were well received. The even- ing was rounded 'out by Tommy Hunt with his mischievous rabbit, Mrs. Sweeny, June and Jerry Mack- lin and their instrumental numbers, and several numbers by the Girls Chorus. The activities of the year were directed by Robert Stump who served as president, Aletta Stoner, vice-president, Ruth Ann More- hous, secretary-treasurer, and Mrs. Kennedy, sponsor.
