ulent in All of Their Performances. CHORUS OFFICERS: Beverly Cherney, secretary, Judy Merritt, president, Joe Falce, treasurer, Arlene Cherney, vice president Singing is one of the ways in which the mem- bers of the South High Chorus express them- selves. They have tried this year, not only to keep song in South, but to show the great spirit within the chorus. During football season they were staunch supporters of the team, for they could be heard singing fight songs and victory chants. By raising money through car washes and bake sales, the chorus was able to present a very successful musical production, Li'l Abner. Under the direction of Mr. Kenneth Gould, the chorus sang in the Christmas pro- gram and also participated in the annual spring concert. Mr. Kenneth Gould rehearses the chorus for the spring concert.

kill and Perfection. A tremendous aid to the spirit at South this year was the Spartan Band. Practice began last summer under the direction of Mr. Henry Sokolowski and Mr. Jack Forsyth. This practice became evident with the suc- cessful performances presented in the half time shows. The marching season was high- lighted by the combined performances of the South and North Bonds at South's final football game. Practice continued through- out the school year in order to present a spring concert. The band also marched in a parade at Kennywood Park. Money-making proiects, to provide Sen- iors with jackets and a spring music ban- quet, included a car wash, bake sale, and a sole of paperback books.
