THE BOYS JOIN IN Nay, now you are too flat, and mar the concord with too harsh a descant. Too bad, boys, but try again. We enjoy hearing the fellows sing in our assembly programs and in the spring concert. The members, under the direction of Mr. Mac- Donald, meet the seventh period on Mon- days when they rehearse their own numbers and those to be sung with the Mixed Choir. Killing care and grief of heart” SONG LIKE A ROSE SHOULD BE; EACH RHYME A PETAL SWEET” Each year the girls wear their prettiest gowns to perform at the spring concert. Here, to the best of their ability, they fulfill Mr. Shakespeare's qualifications mentioned above. In practice periods the girls smooth out the rough passages in the Mixed Choir music. Mr. MacDonald plans soon to form an acapella choir of twenty voices.

“In sweet music is such art: THE MIXED CHOIR LIKE THEIRS ' COUNTRY STYLE” The mixed choir has learned many delightful numbers this year. Lo, How a Rose ’Ere Blooming and The Lord's Prayer, are well-liked, but sung most enthusiastically is Make Mine Country Style. The full Mixed Choir plans to sing in the New York State Music Association contest in the Spring. In addition, several members will prepare solos which also will be judged. Well under way. Getting started.

National Honor Society Carries On Traditions Members of the N.H.S. average report card grades, issue the school handbook, and entertain the student body twice a year with chapel programs. For the past four years the fall program has been an excerpt from a Shakespearian play. This year's wrestling scene from As You Like It featured Wilson Stout as Orlando and Carol Burns and Carolyn Krajewski as Celia and Rosalind. The members and Miss Spann attended the New York Her- ald Tribunes’ Fifth Annual Forum for High Schools at the Waldorf-Astoria. A privilege granted N.H.S. members every fifth year is the selection of a candidate for the Hall of Fame. We voted for Susan B. Anthony. Charles and Orlando wrestle. Student Council Holds Open Meetings What you first notice when you walk in the front doors of River- head High is a cheery, smiling Student Council Representative ready to help you. The meetings, which are held on alternate Wednesday noons, are open to the public. Members have offered a helping hand to the freshmen in their elections and to the Honor Society in their chapel program. Pete Berezny, Gilbert Smith, John Wanat.
