Bulwerlytton Because of the great personal value of music, so aptly described in this quotation, Pontiac Central has attempted to offer a complete program in all phases of music. lt consists of eleven glee clubs and several groups and ensembles who perform not only for our school but also for other schools and clubs in the city. A Cappella Choir, conducted by George Putnam, is the largest of the groups. lt is composed of selected juniors and seniors who are interested in singing, studying and performing some of the great, unusual works.
