Make mine music! Yes, when the members of Wellesley High’s band pick up their instruments you can be sure that there will be fine music. Under the patient super¬ vision of Mr. Leach, the band has worked diligently to reach perfection. This group has excelled in out-of-school activities as well as in those sponsored by the school. As before, our best musicians went to the New England Festival this year. To raise funds for band equipment the group gave a concert which was well-received, especially the popular tune, Rhapsody in Blue. During the spring sea¬ son the band took high honors at both the Medford and Portsmouth Festivals. The annual Memorial and Armistice Day Parades, not to mention the football victory parades, would not have been complete without the inspiring music of our band. Here’s to a band of which we are justly proud. Keep up the fine work! Band Fourth Fair: Y. K. Cochran, II. It Barton. F.. T. Berkeley, It. LeFaivre, 0. Lloyd, Y. McKinley, It. Thornton, It.

Matthews Orchestra The Orchestra, one of the school’s most important organizations, has done a wonderful job this year under the efficient direction of Mr. Leach. In addition to its exceptional performances in the assemblies, the Senior Play, and at Commencement, it has played at the Norfolk Teachers’ Convention for the second successive year, thus bringing special recognition to the school. Some of its members were so skilled that they were asked to participate in the New England Festival of Music at Brattleboro, Vermont, where they performed creditably and gained much valu¬ able experience. The whole group merits a vote of thanks from the student body for its fine work. { 25
