Vocal I v, the music section of Prescott High School was composed of 125 vox divided into two afternoon classes, the fifth and sixth periods daily. First, the classes were instructed in the rudiments of singing properly. Practically Inactive the tirst semester,the group branched out to become the most successful of the org- anizations during the last half year. Functions which were made more enjoyable by their participation, or by the appearance of selec ed ones of their chorus,incIuded Vesper Services at Xmas; presentation of Contest numbers for Flagstaff in two asr - emblies; Open House; Baccalaurate Services. The contest contingent of the below or sections thereof, epptured first in mixed chorus, boys' gleeclub and boys' quar- tet in the Northern Arizona contest. For the instrumental portion, the orchestra and band,with a combined personnel of 75 players, started strongly and never slackened the pace. Comments on the orch- estrations of the former group were to the effect of it being comparable to primary symphonic organizations. The crowning achievement was the winning of first in orch- estra and second for band at the Music Festival on April 17. String ensemble garner- ed second; wood wind ensembI e,first, along with two solo wins. r———■-» —r - ------------------ Row—- Katherine Jane Gernand, Pauline Schnahs, Pt King, Luresa Cline, Katherine Woo Iwine, Ethel Bucl Oespain, Rosemary Davis, Clara Ainsworth, Beatrice Martinez, Victor .i.artha Smith, Priscilla Bachle, Marguerite Reid, Jean Evans, Eva H Weber, Mildred Sexton, Nora Atkins, Doris Ktdwell, and Jessie Colli Row— Sue Jean Wooton, Jean Curry, Betty Jo Geimer, Marjorie Pltct ine Martin, Betty Craver, Madeline Roybal, Eva Addington, Virginia Lee Pe Helen Jensen, Elaine Shelton, Doris Rae Williams, Louise Cooper, Betty CI Katherine Starnick, Anna Margaret Connell, Dorothy Bates. —Fourth Row George Backe (Instructor), Kenneth Pipes, Owen Campbell, Bee V' aples, Max ford, Bruce oollins.
