Chorus The girls’ chorus is composed of approximately fifty girls who have vocal ability. The May Fete, graduation, baccalaureate and assembly programs are among the many places where the chorus entertains. In order to learn their parts more thoroughly, Mr. Younkman has changed their practice schedule. The result of this hard work was the memorable performance given by the chorus in the Musical Review that was presented in February. One of our outstanding members of the chorus is that junior girl, Hetty Sereno. Her lovely soporano voice can be heard drifting throughout the corridors of W.T.H.S. at chorus practices. Besides her chorus work, Hetty sings at banquets, assembly programs, carnivals, and Musical Review, and in the May Fete. She is always willing to help out and should be commended for her hard work.

Mr. Younkman The music department is under the capable leadership of Mr. Younkman, who has charge of the chorus, band, orchestra, and the daily music classes. Previous to his arrival, Mr. Younkman played in the St. Louis Municipal Hand, which is well known to many of us. The Musical Revue under his direction was presented on February 13, and the event proved to be a great success. Mr. Younkman plays the flute and saxaphone. His fine ability to play musical instruments is an inspiration to us all. MR. YOUNKMAN Music Director Orchestra The orchestra, also under the direction of Mr. Younkman, provides entertainment around the school. Some events are the May Fete, assembly programs, Owl Banquet, and the carnival. Boogie-Woogie, classics, marches, and overtures are among the types of music played by these capable music students. The most memorable program presented by the orchestra was the one given at Catlin when the orchestra played for their assembly program. Marian Browning did an excellent baton act; David Rouse played a trombone solo; Marie Pel-lizzari gave a trumpet solo, and Dorothy Adams presented a “sax” solo. All in all, the members had a grand time. First Rote—Maritano, Winauski, E. Somers, I.. Haussy, G. Somers, Rakausky, David Haussy, Adams. Second Row—C.
