BAND AND ORCHESTRA The band and orchestra was organized at the first of the second semester. Rehearsals are held once a week under the direction of Mr. Chadwick. The year has been most successful, closing with a concert on May 17. We feel we will have a real band and orchestra before many years roll by. PEP CLUB For the first time in the history of the S. T. H. S. the football boys were given all the names of the girls in high school from which they were to choose twenty-five girls whom they thought were suitable for a club called the Pep Club . This club had charge of the pep meetings given in assembly before games. Money raised by the girls enabled them to purchase black and orange outfits which were worn by them throughout the year at both basketball and football games. Out of these twenty-five girls, Doris Potter, Mildred Watt, Genevieve Killey, Luella Mall, Flora Dickson, Mary Jane Ugland and Suzanne Puhan were chosen as cheer leaders w'ho led the yells at games. We hope that this club will continue in the future as it has been very profitable this year. BOYS’ AND GIRLS’ GLEE CLUBS The boys' and girls' glee clubs number over one-hundred and forty, being divided into active and associate clubs. The active clubs are chosen from competitive try-outs at the beginning of the year. From these groups are chosen the famous Junior-Senior girls' sextette and boys' octet. The active clubs represented Sandwich at the Little Ten Music Festival, held at Waterman, March 22. A special chorus sang the cantata, Columbus'. We consider the glee clubs are the two of the most instructive and successful departments of our school. NINETEEN THIRTY FIVE 21

Some of the accomplishments have been the thrift bank, cooperative buying of 60 head of sheep and 1000 strawberry plants for its members, a Dad's Night, and evening school for farmers. In December the judging teams in corn, grain and poultry entered the sectional contest in which 20 schools participated and won first in poultry; second in grain; and third in corn. This gave Sandwich the highest number of points in the whole contest. NINETEEN THIRTY FIVE
