BarbaraFiorino, Librarian, Pat Baird, Sec., Bonnie Brown, Wardrobe I-IE annual Fall Concert in October served as the official debut of Wilson's 1960-61 A Cappella Choir. The concert featured songs from the Rodgers and Ham- merstein hit, The Sound of Music, and selections from the works of Bach, Berger, and Nystedt. Immediately after the concert, the choir launched its biggest project of the year - raising money to buy new robes for its members. The first of long series of fund-raising pro- jects was the sale ot basketball tickets for all home games. This was immediately followed by an Almond Roca sale in which Wilson's entire student body partici- pated, a Christmas tree sale sponsored by the Choir and and began a few days after this candy sale had end d. With the money raised from these projects, the Choi purchased the attractive red, white, and blue robes which they wore at the remainder of their public appearances. Members of our Wilson Choir had many opportuni- ties to use their new robes as well as their well-trained voices during the year, both at school concerts and in several music competitions. At the annual solo and en- semble contest held in Seattle on February 25, the Swing Choir and a number of Wilson soloists competed for ratings. The Swing Choir received a superior rating as did eight of the soloists who participated in this competition. A second event which brought honor to Wilson's music department was the Western Wash- ington Music Association Contest, in which the Choir received another Superior rating, N inety-One
