Then, if, by chance, they glanced into the room, they saw Mr. Peithman waving a baton, trying to get the band of University High School to keep in time. The band played at our football and basketball games, thus giving more pep to the cheering section and building up the morale of the players. It was indeed thrilling to all of us when we heard the band start our school song. Some other band numbers which we especially liked to hear were On the Mall, Argezzfimz, and The Deaver! Song. Members of our band in conjunction with band members from Normal Community and Bloomington High played at the McLean County Teachers' Meeting in March. The band also presented an assembly program. The officers for this busy organization were Marilyn Wariiibir, president, Don Sherrard, vice-president, and Eldred Popejoy, secretary-treasurer.

A cider and doughnut' party was held in U High's Home Ec. Room for freshmen and new members. The party was a success, and everybody was contented with the food, the debate, and the fellowship of others. During the year an all school party was sponsored by the society. A St. Patricks Day theme was carried out and was greeted with enthusiasm by the entire school. The annual Rostrum-Thalian Debate was held at the very end of the year. Although both clubs worked very hard, the results were really worthwhile. The Thalian banquet was held on April 21, at the Hotel Rogers. Those attending enjoyed a good dinner and line speeches .by Mr. Barger and members of the club. The annual award was presented to Mary Lou Stover for .outstanding work in the club during her four years of high school. The year was .brought to a successful close by a party given at the home of Miss Stubbletield, sponsor of Thalian. Let's hope next year will be .bigger and better.
