Need Instruments In music, our band, orchestra and glee clubs have made favorable impressions at various times and places. Our great ambition now is to overcome the handicap, under which the band and orchestra labor, of unbalanced instrumentation At present, we are beaten before we enter a contest with other schools of Pennsylvania because of this fault alone.

We have an inspiring leader and good musicians, but not the instruments. It is hod that they may be provided in the not distr4 future. As we enter upon the next lustrum we hope to be able to serve the in terests of our boys and girls better than we have done in the past The greatest desire of the teachers of John Harris High School is to be able to inspire their pupils with a constantly increasing desire to make the most of their opportuni ties. member of the S.
