The group put on a program at Christmas and in the spring. At Christmas some of the pieces played were: Jesu Bambino, Angels From the Realms of Glory, Hark the Herald Angels Sing, and Angels We Have Heard on High. In the spring we played Temptation, Through the Years, Minuet, Desert Song, and Introduction to Act I of L.onghrin by Richard Wag- ner. This year is the first year that the orchestra, band, and glee clubs have given separate concerts. The orchestra did a very fine job playing at the graduating exercises held in the spring. The orchestra will miss the fine musicianship of those many seniors who are graduating this year, but the people who are not leaving will form the nucleus of next year's organization. 31
