L At every football game the majorettes lead Norton High's marching band down the field before the game begins and after it is over. During the halftime they provide entertain- ment along with the band. This year new twirling routines and new dances made pleas- ant viewing. Ellen learned to twirl fire and gave a wonderful performance during the last home game. The girls spent many hours practicing to perfect their routines so they would give their best performances on the field. A majorette's job is not always a glor- ious one. They have rugged practice sessions and must march and twirl in all types of weather. All majorettes are also members of the band and play in the concert band after football season. Ellen marched as head ma- jorette this year. This is her second year as a majorette. ,ml t . fs. ' 1 - S 'H Q 4' 'wi.,,q.m C Wi m n 4 G. Gross

CHORUS One of the most outstanding features of Norton High is its chorus. Our school can be very proud of Mr. Yockey and all the chorus members. When they went to dis- trict contests, several individual members and the entire chorus brought honors home. We have the privilege of hearing the chorus sing at the Thanksgiving, Christ- mas, and Easter assemblies. During these assemblies the chorus is truly awe-inspiring. This year the chorus gave two concerts. One was a combined band and chorus con- cert. The other was a concert featuring junior High and High School Choruses. The highlight of the concert was when our chorus sang the Hallelujah Chorus. Our Chorus is truly the pride of Norton High. Mr. Arden j. Yockey deserves a great deal of credit for making our chorus as fine as it is. He sincerely enjoys music and de votes the majority of his time to it. He be gan his music career at Norton seventeen years ago. At that time and until 1953 he was in charge of all the instrumental sec tions. From 1953 until this year he was in charge of both the instrumental and vocal music sections at Norton. This year he was relieved of some of the work and now is the director of the junior High and High School choruses.
