GIRLS' GLEE CLUB This year the chorus has been under the direction of Mr. Tritle. The two main activities of the chorus were the Christmas and Spring con- certs which were both well received by the public. Other activities included singing at various school functions, sponsoring the movie An American in Paris and competing in the Forensic Contests. Membership in chorus benefits the students in many ways. It creates a better appreciation of choral music, helps develop individual talent, and pro- vides pleasure from enjoyment of singing. The girls have put forth their best efforts to make a successful chorus this year and they hope to do just as well in the coming year. O ....32..

BOYS' CHORUS The Boys' Chorus, under the direction of Mr. Charles Tritle, has done ex- ceptionally well this year, considering that they have only one period a week for practice. There are thirty-seven boys in the chorus which are taken from grades nine to twelve inclusive. Last fall the boys' chorus had an entirely new experience. They put on a minstrel which was well received by the public. Because of insufficient periods for practice it has been impossible to have a mixed chorus this year, but there are indefinite plans as to a mixed chorus next year. The boys in the chorus profit considerably from their membership. Although it takes a lot of hard work to have a good chorus there is also time enough for some fun. The boys think that congratulations are in order for Mr. Tritle, who has done a very good job with the chorus this year.
