MUSIC After completing a successful outdoor season during which intricate marching formations high- lighted football games, the Shortridge Band, un- der Robert J, Shultz's direction, began its 1944 concert season. After playing two auditoriums for the students, the band gave a concert in Feb- ruary, at which nineteen seniors were awarded letters and sweaters. Proceeds of the concert pur- chased a S100 War Bond. The aggregation played a large part in the May Music Festival and as- sisted in the Buy-a-Plane Drive. Mrs. Laura C. Moag's choral groups, the Voice Ensemble, Choir, and Boys' Glee Club, opened their season with a concert at the Teachers' Con- vention in October, which was followed by an in- spiring Thanksgiving program in Caleb Mills Hall. The groups presented a well-received Christmas program. Among their many programs, their Easter program was outstanding, as was their work in the May Music Festival. The Shortridge Orchestra, under the direction of Will F. Wise, presented three auditorium pro- grams and not only played for the Senior Play and the Music Festival, but also took part in the All-City High School Orchestra Festival. Also under the guidance of Mr. Wise was the Girl.s' Glee Club, which presented a radio program and sang for the Music Festival. 33 Q

The S.P.Q.R., sponsored by Miss Josephine Davidson, was or- ganized to acquaint the members with the universal background of the Latin language and to stimulate further interest in the Latin classics. Students in their third year of Latin who have main- tained a B average throughout their study of this subject, may write a theme that deals with Latin subjects to qualify for membership. The activities of the club for the year were a Christmas party and the annual spring picnic. Meetings feature musical programs, Latin songs, games and contests.
