Election of officers, l-lorace's birthday, the oracle at Delphi, and the Olympics vied with the mirth of an initiation, a Roman Camera club is of special interest to those stu- dents who have made photography their outside activity and hobby. The principal aim of the club is to instruct students in the proper handling and operation of all types of cameras, and in the art of printing and developing their own pictures. During the year, meetings were devoted to demonstrations and discussions of various phases of photography. Some experimental work Was done in -enlarging and tinting pictures and in photography with X-rays. Recently a set of reflectors and photo-flood lamps was purchased by the school.

U ' 2 . . -f - Choir - V A blare of music amid the cheering and noisy confusion of a football game brought all eyes to attention as the West Division band stepped forth, dressed for the first time in their trim new uni- forms. They were greeted by a burst of applause, followed by a cheer as an intricate forma- tion was directed by Howard Hinz, drum major. The same enthusiastic greeting awaited the band members when they took their place on the as- sembly hall stage to present the annual spring concert. There, a delightful program of overtures and marchs was varied by a modern number, Mood Mauve , a novelty number, The Clock and the Dresden Figures, with piano solo by Elizabeth Berkenheiery a French horn solo by lla Rainier, assistant drum major: and a group of songs by the A Cappella chorus. The A Cappella chorus, a live and growing organization, has always been willing to assist at any program, blending its many voices in fioal beautiful harmonies. Its worth was further proven when the National Parent-Teacher Association selected the West Division band and A Cappella chorus to furnish the music at its spring meeting. The orchestra was not idle this year. Most of its efforts were directed to furthering musical ap- preciation in the graded schools, but long hours of practice were necessary to assure the perfect rendition of the overture which added much to the commencement exercises. The music medal this year was awarded to Marcella Eisenberg, concert-mistress. West Division's music department, as shown by the tournament standings, ranks high among those of other schools. Mr. Earl D. Rainier and Mr. Gola W. Coffelt are to be commended for their efforts. Both Mr. Rainier and Mr. Coffelt, in all music classes, are giving many students a deeper love for music and a truer insight as to its opportunities.
