Levan, has con- tinued to grow in the past year. In addition to high school members, the band now boasts some grade school students. Fifth and sixth graders supplement the main band in evening perform- ances and on the football field. Also, Mr. Levan instructed other grade school students for future membership in the organization. This year for the second time, the band played marches and pep songs at the home foot- ball games. They also learned many new songs for the Spring Concert. Every Thursday and Fri- day morning at 7:30 they met in the Music Room to perfect their presentations. Dale Fallon, president, Edward Schell, vice- presidentg and Jay Zalewski, secretary, have high hopes for the band's future.

The purpose of the or- ganization is to perfect their presentations given at the annual Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter assemblies. Also, there is a special evening performance in which the chorus takes part. This year, in the Evening of Music, the senior high chorus presented an informal sing. All phases of American music were featured: folk- music, Negro spirituals, broadway music, semi- religious, and music for fun. The highlight of the evening was the audience participation in the finale. Other selections included, Climb Every Mountain, Round 'N Round, Who Built de Ark, and I Gave My Love a Cherry. In the Christ- mas program the chorus emphasised semi-religious songs besides the traditional hymns and carols.
