 The Minden Log i-h-i-hhinniimmui-n- THE HIGH SCHOOL DRUM AND BUGLE CORPS .Mr. Charles A. Goodhall, Director Shirley Patrick, Drum Major Snare Drums: Bonna Divine, Dorothy Beasley, Lydia Zeller, Pauline Clovis, Marjorie Hilton, Wilma Hughes, I«ois Smith, Wilma Palmer. Cymbals: Dorothy Spriggs, Wanda Bliss. Bass Drums: Pearle Crowe, Lorenea Hankins. Bugles: Genevieve Dryer, Clara Hughes, Bonnie Kirby, Maxine Kent, Edna Lee Kretzinger. Maxine Jamar, Barbara Moore, Ardith Taylor, Dorothy Seely, Zora Sue Wings, Lavada Wydick. The Drum and Bugle Corps with its membership of twenty-five girls, has a tegular place on the schedule and is handled in the same manner as any other class in the school. This organization showed the results which may be obtained by consistant and careful work, and whenever the girls have appeared before the school or the public, their audiences have been uniformally and enthusiastically appreciative. All music used by the girls has been written and arranged by Mr. Goodhall, their director. The girls have worked hard to raise enough money to buy capes and caps which they received just in time to be used at the last basketball game which was played at Cherokee. Very litle change will be made in the membership of this group for the coming year as only Freshmen, Sophomores, and Juniors were started this year. However, it is hoped that we will be able to add several more pieces to our unit in 1940-41. •H !'

Successful men and women in the business and professional world are telling our young men and women that there are dividends in diction, and so urges them to perfect their speech. The students of Minden High School are becoming more “speecn conscious” every year. They are beginning to see that regardless of what they plan to ao after finishing high school, they will be better qualified to do it if they have the ability Because of the truth of the aforesaid statements, the Speech department of the Minden High School is classed with the growing departments of the institution. A speech recital was given at the close of the year, which gave a fair estimate of the final quality of work which had been done in this department during the year. The Speech Choir which appears on this page presented a repe -toire of classical and popular selections, along with individual selections by the various members of the speech and dramatics class. The choir was asked to present a recital at the Crawford County Teachers Meeting in Girard the first semester. ■H I' I I 1 I I 1 1 I -1-1-1--P1 1-1 1111 1 I 'M1 “Education Through Experience” »-!■ 1-1 1 I 1 I l-H 1 1 1 I 1 1 I r 1 1 1 «■ H-H-h
