Band The Rowe High School Band has again completed a successful school year. The band, composed of twenty-three talented members, has three seniors in it: Barbara Kaiser, playing the baritone; David Fisher, beating the drums; and Bill Philley, playing the clarinet. Its major task for this year has been playing for all the home basketball games. The stirring marches of the band helped the team on its way to victory. Another event for the year was giving an half-hour program in January at the Farmers' Institute held at Monroe Center. Also the band participated in the junior play, held in December, by performing between the acts. Mrs. Wellman is the director of the school band and part of its success is due to her experienced directing. BAND First row, left to right, Howard Irish. David Fisher. Second row. left to right.

Orchestra Once a week on Tuesday, beautiful strains of music have been heard, wafting up from the music room into the rooms above. Upon investigation we have found that it was the Rowe High School Orchestra, performing and practicing under the direction of Mrs. Wellman’s waving baton. The orchestra is composed of twenty-five members, three of whom are seniors: Barbara Kaiser, David Fisher, and Bill Philley. A few of the many selections played this year were: “Land of Romance” by Frazee, “Mecury Overture” by Scarmolin, “Largo,” from the New World Symphony, “Song of India” by Rimsky-Korsakoff, and “Hungarian Dance No. 5” by Brahms. Several appearances were made in assemblies and also the orchestra played at the senior play. Providing a beautiful background of music, the orch(stra played several selections for the Commencement Exercises in May. Unto the sweet bird’s throat 29

A Capella Choir Probably the interests of most of the students in the line of music is in the A Capella Choir, composed of thirty-seven members. Fourteen members were new this year and five seniors—Barbara Kaiser, Flora Hall, Bernadine Yusko, Georgiana Kako, and Bill Philley have completed their four-year course in the choir. The year got under way with the annual initiation party for the fourteen new members. At Christmas time a caroling party was given by the members of the group and a gift exchange was made at the home of Mrs. Wellman, our director. Numerous concerts were given by the choir of which the most outstanding performance was at the Juniol ' McDowell Concert held at the Conneaut High School. The choir has taken part in Sunday morning services at the Amboy Methodist Church and the Conneaut Baptist Church. Also a half-hour program was presented at the Farmers’ Institute at Monroe Center. Appearances made in the school were at assemblies and the Baccalaureate and Commencement exercises. The following members will be awarded pins for choir work the past two years: Dick Armstrong, Altha Bates, Margaret Dewey, Mildred Kultti, Harriet Montgomery, Richard Olson, Mary Leu Torrence, Elizabeth Waddle, Laura Yusko and Bessie Ring.
