The club shall continue for an unlimited time and at no time shall the membership exceed twenty-five. All members must pass the ‘try-out’, given by the club leader”—thus reads the first clause of the club’s constitution. The year of 1923-24 saw the first glee club, which included both boys and girls and was coached by Mr. E. G. Evans. The purpose of this group was to present the operetta, “Captain of Plymouth”. In 1925-26 the boys and girls were led separately by Miss Edwards. Their combined achievement was the rendition of the operetta, “In Old Louisiana”. This year the club has met regularly on Mondays and I hursdays at 4 o’clock in the new music room. Their first public performance was given at the Women’s Club Convention last fall. Several other programs were given in the senior high assembly. The big feature of the year, of course, was the successful operetta, “Love Pirates In Hawaii”. Claire Evans played the part of the leading lady and Verdelle Lageschulte, president of the club took second lead.

The minstrel show late in the first semester was a big success and likewise the operetta, “In Old Louisiana”, in which the club took part. This year the club has gone forward under the leadership of Miss Empey. The club has at various times rendered several selections before the high school assembly but their first public appearance was at the Christmas program. Other appearances were at the father-daughter banquet of the Girl Reserves and the mother-daughter banquet of the Girl Reserves. The club played an important part in the operetta, “ Love Pirates of Hawaii”, which was given April first of this year. This operetta was a great success and much credit is due to the glee clubs and to Miss Empey, their director.
