MUSIC DEPAR TMENT Something new was added to the Music Department this year with the organization of a High School Band, the first in the history of the school. In previous years the aspiring instrurnentalists were forced to join with the community members in the organization of a community band. At the beginning of school only nine members were eligible for the band but at the end of the year our small number of nine was more than doubled. The band was very active during the year making their first appearance at the junior Class play in November, ad- ding pep to the basketball games, furnishing novelty tunes between acts of the Farmer's Institute, joining with the other schools of the county for the all county Music Festival in April, and climaxing the year with the May Day Festivities the last day of school. The dusting off of the old uniforms was a great event and one that will be long remembered by the band members for the fun they had and the services they did for the community. At Christmas time the entire twelve grades joined together in giving a Christmas Musical. The musical program given at the Farmer's Institute brought another combination of all grades and organizations in February. The Girls Glee Club were praised many times during the year for their fine blending of voices and excellent musical performances at the Christmas Musical, the Special World Day of Prayer at the United Brethren Church, the Farmer's Institute, and the May Day Festivities. The Boys Glee Club made several appearances during the year, among them being the Christmas Musical, the Farmer's Institute, and the May Day. Many laughs were furnished by this group when they presented a skit at the Farmer's Institute entitled Bone:-s School Room . It became such a highlight of the program that the boys gave a repeat performance at the P.T.A. meeting in April. The largest musical group is the Mixed Chorus, consisting of the upper four high school grades. This group participated in the Christmas Program and the Farmer's Institute. A special and very entertaining musical radio program was presented by the different groups in novelty, solo, and ensemble numbers in presenting a program at the P.T.A. meeting in March. Looking back over the year of 1946 and 1947 we conclude that each of us had some part in at least one of the active and inspiring musical groups and that these memories will be lasting through the years to come. --Miss Betty Hiner Lmmgnphea a. sauna by wzmswonrn BROTHERS ra..e.un..
