Luce. Early in the year they entertained orches- tra members' parents with a tea and concert. Nine orchestra members were selected for the annual All-State Meet under the baton of prominent directors. The annual district and state instrumental contests were entered by soloists from the string, wind, and per- cussion sections of the or- chestra. Under the direction of Mr. Luceg the student teachersg and the student con- ductors, Thomas Mueller and Larry Poston, the orchestra spent a large part of the year rebuilding sections. As a climax to the year's Work, the combined orchestra Larry Poston and Thomas Mueller as student conductors have directed the group in several pieces. presented a very successful spring con- cert. To top off the fine year the annual picnic was held. It was a gala event en- joyed by all the members and their guests. Beginning string orchestra and the directors assemble for a practice session.
