From a membership in V929 oT sixTeen, iT has grown unTil now There are sevenTy-Tive, The largesT membership in iTs hisToryg and sTill iT has gone on To bigger and beTTer accomplishmenTs. T , Long 'before a band was even ThoughT oT, There was an orchesTra in The'school which. under The direcTorship oT John Phillips, played Tor assemblies and The com- mencemenT. Since Then. we have had as direcTors. Hugo Miksch, G. AusTin Kuhns and Howard Beckes. The developmenT oT an orchesTra is necessarily slower Than ThaT of a band as iT Takes much longer To Train The players oT sTring insTrumenTs Than iT does The wind insTrumenTs. ln The lasT Three years. Through The eTforTs oT Mr. Kuhns, addiTional insTrumenTs were added. so ThaT finally The necessary insTruimenTaTion Tor enTrance inTo conTesT was reached. ln The disTricT conTesT in '38 we Tied wiTh Bellaire Tor a second raTing which was The highesT given. ln '39 The orchesTra showed iTs abiliTy by winning a Superior plus raTing in The disTricT and a second or ExcellenT raTing in The STaTe con- TesT in Columbus.
