Orchestra To those students eiulowecl witli jjowers of producing instrumental music who have, during the course of the year, delighted us with their orchestra work, we give our whole-hearted respects and thanks with the earnest wish that, under their capable supervisor and director. Miss Goeres, they may, in the years to come, attain even greater triumph in the field of music. Stoughton High School was especially fortunate this year in having such a well-organized group of fine musicians. Every section in the orchestra had its com- plement of capable instrumentalists and all worked together to produce some excep- tionally fine results. Their work at the Teachers ' Club play, the Senior play, and the annual exhibition was outstanding. Page Seventeen
