They have been extremely active singing programs in the community this year: for the Rotary Club, Kiwanis Club, Business and Professional Women's Club, Episcopal Men's Club, and at the P. T, A. Choir Festival. ' T THE ORCHESTRA y One feature ot Torrance High School which has been practically extinct until this year is the Orchestra, which, under the able direction ot Mr. Sauter, has again been brought to lite. ' More dignity seems to have crept into the aud calls which have been opened and closed with numbers from the Orchestra. It is the members' and Mr. Sauter's fond hope to have instruments and unitorms for a band which will liven up the spirit at the 'football games next tall.
