Band Fully adjusted to the restrictions of war-time conditions, which precluded the possibility of out-of-town engagements, the band this year has been con- tent to confine its activities to the community. The unit played for a Re- publican rally late in October, parading up Main Street to the courthouse, where the members played several concert selections and the national anthem as a preliminary to the public meeting held on that occasion. At each home basketball game the bandsmen performed notably, playing during the inter- missions. Special occasions were those games at which the organization pre- sented its drum majorettes, Elizabeth Curtis and Ethel Stewart, in baton twirling routines. Early in April the band members enjoyed their annual social function, the Band Ball, held in the Brown Gymnasium. Limited to bandsmen and their personal guests, the affair was exclusive and a colorful event. A prominent part in th: Spring Concert, given by music students of Mad- ison High School in May, and an important contribution to the Commence- ment exercises rounded out a year of accomplishment.

Choral Club Members of the Choral Club enjoyed more latitud: in the matter of travel this year, despite transportation handicaps. The group, divided into several units, was busy during the first semester, providing music for the Elks' Memor- ial Service on December 4 and giving programs of Christmas music. The holi- day itinerary included Hanover High School, Saluda High School, Central High Sghool, Cragmont, Madison Kiwanis Club, Madison Rotary Club, Hanover College and Madison High School, where an assembly program was given just before Christmas vacation. Second semester activities involved the Spring Cen- cert and furnishing musical portions of the Baccalaureate and Commence- ment services. In lieu of award pins, granted for service in the organization on a seniority basis, the choral M was instituted during the academic year. The letter may be earned by any member of the Choral Club who amasses 1200 credit points and who shows evidence of good school citizenship. William Goebel has been the only member to qualify to date, although several have nearly done so. The Choral Club has this year upheld its high standard of work and has provided a ready outlet for those who are musically ambitious in vocal work.
