As in previous years, the girls were divided into two sections: the Seniors and Juniors comprising one group and the Sophomores and Freshman, the other. Every Thursday each group met for two periods. At the Christmas assembly, which was pre- sented bv the Music Department, the senior girls sang Christmas carols. Before the close of school for the Christmas holidays, the senior girls to- gether with the Boys ' Glee Club sang Christmas carols over the public address system. In April a grou] of the Junior-Senior girls sang at a meeting of the Parent-Teacher Association. In Ma . the Senior and Junior Girls ' Glee Club sang at the animal Spring Concert. The girls ' groups will sing at the Baccalaureate Service and the (Graduation l: xercises in June. 30

BAND Beryl Sylvester, ' 56 THE band this year was affected by the double sessions as the junior high musicians had to come to morning rehearsals if they wished to play with the high school group. However, the band had a successful season in spite of this in- convenience. They played at most of the home football games and rallies, and provided the music at our Tech Tourney basketball game at Boston Garden. On October 4, 19.53 the members went to Sym- phony Hall in Boston to hear the United States Marine Band Concert. The S. H. S. band participated in the South- eastern Massachusetts Music Festival on May 8, 1953. They also played at the Annual Spring Concert with the Glee Clubs. Eight members of the band played in the Southeastern Massachusetts Bandmasters ' As- sociation Concert in Whitman. These players were Connie Bailey, Beverly Burt, Fred Glea son, Beth Gunn, Roger Kirwood, Ronald Kirwood, Charles Rodgers, and Thomas Whittaker. Fred Gleason and Thomas Whittaker also pla ed at the All-State Band Concert, which was held this year at Worcester, Mass. 31
