Description: THE ORCHESTRAFor the last four years the High School Orchestrahas been successfully piloted by Mr. Lee McCauley.We believe, however, that the year of 1924-1925 hasbeen the most fruitful of them all. The selection orstudy-work has been of very good quality whichnaturally inspires the pupil to greater effort. Moreattention has been paid to the individual player inhelping him to play his best at all times. Orchestralstanding and effects have also had a place in the dayswork. Mr. McCauley has also touched on orchestraletiquette which he believes is very important to the progress of the students.turthermore the orchestra has been larger and better equipped than it has been for sometime. With the addition of a few instruments the orchestration will be complete. To accomplish this end Mr. McCauley has instituted classes for those wishing to take up specialinstruments. The fee is very small and the benefit derived is great. Lessons on any desiredinstrument can now be secured. At present there are about 90 members in these classes.The following members of the orchestra are classified according to instruments:First Violin: Jules Brewer. James Rice, Elbert Maston, David Rothrock, Paul Stout,Ronald Rogers, Vernon Axiom, Allan Hanna. Second Violin: Elizabeth Holland, ElizabethKarsell, Clinton Hawkins.
