MR. HERMAN BUELLER AND THE ORCHESTRA Punahou Music School IT ' S been a big year over in the Punahou Music School — a successful year. Much of this success is due to the executive and artistic ability of Mr. Verne Waldo Thompson. One feature of this year ' s work of the Music School has been the develop- ing of an exceedingly good orchestra by Mr. Herman Bueller. The orchestra practiced faithfully twice a week from the first month of school and made its final appearance at the spring play. The personnel of the orchestra are as fol- lows: Piano, Margaret Bairos; violins, Sophie Judd, Edward Wong, and How- ard Clarke; cellos, Betty Judd and David Livingston; cornets, Harry Stillwell, Torlogh O ' Brien, and Vincent Van Brocklin; trombone, Billy McWayne ; traps, Harold Sexton. Public student recitals were given weekly in Dillingham hall. Monthh- pipe-organ recitals were also given at Central Union Church by Charles Paul Tanner, who is a faculty member of the Punahou Music School. Two entirely new ideas were started this year by the Punahou Music School. The first was an educational series of weekly concerts called Thirty minutes with the great composers. These were put on by the faculty of the music school each Sunday evening and were broadcast over KGU. The other new idea was that of sponsoring concerts by local visiting artists and at times bringing them t before the student body at special and morning assemblies. 18
