Orchestra The lilting melodies of the orchestra will long be remembered as a highlight in our school life. Particularly welcome were the musical interludes in our weekly assemblies, and the players enjoyed it as much as the audience. Their enjoyment and ability can be traced to Mr. Leach’s masterful direction and contagious enthusiasm. This was evident in the contribution to the festivities of last year’s graduation. Many times during the year the strains of classical and semi-popular favorites echoed through the building to i nspire and delight the whole school. Particularly popular was the “Waltz of the Flowers” heard at one of the several program interludes. On a special occasion a string ensemble entertained the Boston Women’s Professional Club during their annual Christmas celebration. For all this many thanks are due to Mr. Leach and his talented musicians. Fourth Row: P. Beckwith, E. Ireland, C. Fitch, L. Litvack, C. Chase, H. McCrillis Third Row: D. Foss, .1. McBurney, C.

Mami Displaying its customary pep, the band has been one of the main factors in arousing school spirit. This organization has participated in many school and town activities. Accompanied always by the delightful twirling corps, and under the leadership of its capable director, Mr. Leach, the band has stirred its audiences at the Memorial and Armistice Day parades, the football games and rallies, and at its major performance of the year, the Band Concert. From the beginning of the year, it was evident that the band needed new uniforms; consequently the Band Concert was arranged to provide a fund for this purpose. Many weeks of planning and rehearsing went into the program. Because of this arduous prepara¬ tion, it was a great success, as all will agree. Fourth Row: P. Popko, C. Lloyd, A. Anderson, S.
