Basketball MOON I'IIGI'I'S basketball team was organized in 1935. With a strong squad of players from 1934's junior High team, Coach Brooks produced a capable aggregation. Kissinger, Borden, Shafer, Tesla, Schnelzer, and McLaughlin, allfstar forward in Sectien XIII of the W. P. I. A L., filled the forward and guard posif tions. Smith, a lofty sophomore, performed at center. These boys, together with dependable substitutes, cooperated nicely providing strong opposition to the teams in Section XIII of the VJ. P. 1. A. L., and, considering that this was our first year in high school competition, we had a fairly successful season in the league with three wins and seven losses. The B squad under Coach Gendich's guidance, proved to have a more success' ful season than the Varsity. We are glad for this, because it shows us that there arefamong this young material-4boys who will capably uphold our prestige in the future.

Orchestra THE year 1932 saw the .organization of the first orchestra at Moon Township ' High School when thirteen musicallyfinclined students, under the baton of Miss Grace Dickson, began to develop their musical ability into a pleasing ensemble. By the end of the year, although they had not made many public appearances, the orchestra had really accomplished its first year's expectation and since then its rapid progress has made it one of the most active musical groups in our school. Assemblies this year were more enjoyable because of the orchestra's conf tinued presence. The musical interludes at the allfschool and senior plays were possible only through the cooperation of this body of student musicians, The orchestra now consists of the following twentyftwo members: Alex Hill, Edward Hawes, Annabelle Kennedy, Geraldine Crago, Delores Heath, Nick Shust, Dorothy McClinton, Sara McCormick, Dorothy Campbell, Harold Lottes, Ursula King, Philip Hermansen, Leora Link, Harold Meinhardt, Betty Leonhardt, William Dally, Ruth Kennedy, jack Stevenson, Charles Roznetinsky, Chester La Rue, Frank McCormick, and Hallie Jacobi. Band AFTER a demonstration on various instruments by Mr. Mango of the Conn Instrumental Company, thirty M. T. H. S. students organized a band in April, 1935, and after four weeks' practicing they gave their first concert. Throughout the sweltering summer diligent practices were held each Friday evening in the high school auditorium. When school opened they were well enough advanced to put on a co-ncert during the first month. They have also favored us with demonstrations of their ability in assembly. Because of their rapid accomplishments they now have a regular Friday morning period alloted them for practices. Because all of our football games were played away from home, the band was not able to appear at the football games, as was originally intended. However, since we expect to play on our own field next year, we shall certainly look for our band to lead every football parade. Glee Club IN September, a group of girls under the direction of Miss Dickson organized ' themselves into a glee club, and have worked diligently. During the first semester they appeared in assembly and before the P. T. A. This semester they aided in the production of the minstrel and spent every available minute practicing for the Music Festival which took place early in May.
