Although these choirs have not been given any singing ex- perience as individual groups, they have participated as part of the Choirsters in the Choiristers' major productions, The Prepara- tory Choir operated as part of the Choirsters, and the Girls' Glee Club was formed by the combination of all the girls in all the choirs. The main purpose of these two choirs is to train them for singing in the main choir. For rehearsing purposes all the choirs have the main rehearsal room plus two prac- tice rooms, which have been used extensively during the year. The robe room and the music library room also have been advan- tageous. Mr. Charles Meeker, the director, states that one of the most helpful pieces of equipment that he has is the portable recording set, which is used during practice sessions.

DURING FOOTBALL season the majorettes, Sheryl Van Gundy, Pam Tomhave, Sandy Fedorovich, Kay Swartwood, Sharon Linder, practice a new routine for a half-time show. Majorettes Add Luster to Band Ahead of the band in their bright flashy uni- forms, the majorettes and drum majors strutted proudly onto the football field in one of their half- time shows with the band. The majorettes, Sheryl Van Gundy, Sandy Fedo- rovich, Kay Swartwood, Chris Castaneda, Pam Tom- have, and Sharon Linder, have worked hard this year, practicing before school and on Saturdays. Two of them, Sheryl Van Gundy and Kay Swartwood, pre- sented a half-time show at a basketball game in which they used batons with fire on the ends. The drum majors, Richard Hill and Gary Kane, did independent research on drum majoring and learned their signals from Mr. Jackson. They also helped Mr. Jackson with each program the band presented. Both groups have been in several parades this year, and Mr. jadcson complimented them on their originality.
