Under the direction of Mr. Daniel Hooley, the group presented Yuletide Memories , a Christmas cantata. The high point of this program occurred whenuthe Christmas chorus formed a Christmas tree and, while holding candles, sang Silent Night. The chorus went Christmas caroling in' town, stopping at several homes and singing. They also sang carols in the halls of the school. Other activities in which the group participated were the operetta, The Forest Prince, the Franklin County Music Festival, and several musica assemblies. The chorus is proud that the membership is larger this year than before. It consists of freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors.
