The annual election won the gavel for Marian Brainard. Lloyd Jones was her able assistant: Pat Ecklein took the minutes and Jerry Cook was treasurer. In order to broaden the musical knowledge of his charges, Mr. Lax distributed classical and modern music in his organizations. Graduations. assemblies, and all school events would be at a loss were not the ready orchestra at hand! .ls,i. t ff AN What would rallies. basketball games. and commencement exercises be like if the A Band weren't around to lend its spirit and color to the occasion? Under the responsible leadership of Mr. Maurice Lax. the 68 band members have proven to all that their organization is one of the most popular and successful that Northwestern can boast! Margie Thomson was president: Bill Schmidt, vice-president: Rosa Marie Hix. secretary: and Marjorie Porter, treasurer. Undoubtedly, the Michigan Band and Or- chestra Association will reward their efforts by placing them in the coveted first division. Page 'Iiwenty-eighl 'I'l1r1lcr, ll.

The soloists for the broadcast were Jean Alla, Ethel Duckworth, Jean Johnston, Kay Manders and Sheilah Wilmot. IVIIJIJEH I-IN EEL Rythm! Grace! Technical skill! Imagination! These are the requisites for member- ship in the Modern Dance Club!

During the fall term. Doris Perdue called the sessions to order. assisted by Rose Marie Moore. secretary. In January, Helen Weidman assumed the presidents duties: Rose Marie con- tinued as secretary.

Dress- llea 1. : . .'ii', 4'- CLUB Amid the chills of winter and with premeditated murder in their hearts. the N men gave Northwestern's new lettermen Hthe WORKS! The initiation, with its tasty food and impressive paddling. was enjoyed by all who participated . . . fit says herej. Per usual. the N Club sponsored a successful dance with the Ci.A.A. Fall term ofiicers were Hal Pink, president: Dick Dresser, vice-president: Ronald Teasley, secretary: and Harry Ramsey, treasurer. In January, officers elected were Don Miller, president: Alex Clelland. vice-president: Hal Pink. secretary: and Harry Ramsey. treasurer. With Coach Jim Demaree leading the way, the N Club can be expected to do big things. Upon entering Northwestern High School, every Coltette joins the Girls' Athletic Association, known informally as the G.A.A. The Executive Board consists of three representatives from each graderoom, all team captains, and the four officers. This year, Lois Johnston, wielded the gavel, assisted by Phyllis O'Hagan. Anne MacKenzie handled the minutes and Jean Alla, the treasury. Keeping the girls in the groove and on the move was Mrs. Mildred Dunn. Two evening dances were undertaken with the co-operation of the N Club. The traditional G.A.A. welcome to the freshman girls inspired them to replace the girls who graduate from the realm of Northwestern sports. Page Twenty nine I Ri l Il l :r.vt Ruru: l' U llu jolmstun.
