[ BAND For the school term of 1938-1939 the band found at first that it was weak from loss of seniors who had made up a great part of its number. The organization, composed largely of first and second year students, worked industriously to maintain its standard in the county. To its credit were performances at athletic games, programs, the County Music Festival and the Chico Music Festival, all headed by Mr. Schott. CHORUS Singing makes the heart glad,” so the chorus discovered. Under the direction of Mr. Schott the chorus, made up of girls only, progressed far in its vocal training. Although the group did not perform very much it was capable of putting on a program of good singing. A M AAAAA htAMAA tAAAAAAAJt tAi AAAAAAAA t AAHAAAAMAAA UHtKK nnnnn X nKKKnn ttn» n ttttt

PINE BREEZES In order to keep the school informed as to who's who in the news and what's doing, Pine Breezes was put on the press every two weeks by the Junior English class, under the supervision of Miss Taverner, and mimeographed by Miss Gibson's commercial department. The only organization to hold regular meetings, the staff, composed of those who were interested in journalism, met each week to discuss ways and means of bettering the paper. PINE The Pine, the school annual, was published by the student body at the end of the year. It concerns school activities—music, drama, sports, etc., and contains pictures and stories describing these. The editor, Margaret Fuller, elected in spring, 1938, was aided by a most efficient staff.
