C: 1:1 - Q ' ' A lf B it . wafers LYLE GQRDON GRANT T is difficult to express the feelings of the students and the faculty in regard to the passing of Lyle Gordon Grant. As he has done so much for Roosevelt High School, one cannot possibly enumerate his accom- plishments. There are, however, three distinct monuments to his memory. These are not made of cold material substance, but, on the contrary, they are composed of lively, progressive students of Roosevelt High School. The glee club, the orchestra, and the band are these three monuments. Coming tothe school when it was opened in the fall of 1922, Mr. Grant had before him the stupendous task of building up a music department. He started with practically nothing, for very few of the students had received musical training. The glee club is his first monument. The staging of an opera is an enormous piece of work, and very few realize how much time and effort Mr. Grant gave to the direction of his three operas. His second monument is the orchestra. This developed amazingly under lVIr. Grant's direction. A great deal of work was, necessarily, in- volved in preparing the orchestra for accompaniment purposes and for concert work. The hand is the third monument to his memory. He labored continu- ally, not only to secure instruments and players, but also to teach the stu- dents how to play the various instruments. The wonderful progress made by the band was but recently exemplified in an auditorium program in which Atlantis was played. From practically nothing, Mir. Grant developed the band to such a high state of concert playing that in its third year it won the state championship. All of these successes are the direct result of lVlr. Grant's untiring efforts to help others and of his zeal to teach the beauty and the right en- joyment of music. fir Prim' .Yixlrrn
