Opportunity to hear a program of symphonic melodies will be given 2,700 Indianapolis eighth grade pupils at 2 p. m. today at the Armory, when the senior Arsenal Technical high school symphony orchestra directed by V. E. Dillard gives the first city high school orchestra concert for grade pupils. The program is the materialization of the plans of Ernest G. Hesser, city school music director, to familiarize older grade pupils with symphony music and show them their opportunities in the world of high school music. 100 in Shortridge Group The Shortridge high school orchestra of about one hundred students under direction of Will P. Wise will give the second program for eighth graders in May. Hesser explained partial plans for a series of programs each year in keeping with the movement started three years ago by the city federation of teachers, when it sponsored two programs by the Cleveland symphony in Indianapolis. In the absence of a local professional symphony group, high school orchestras will be used. Program notes were complied by Miss Elizabeth G. Kaltz, head of the Technical music department, and sent to the buildings two weeks ago in order to encourage the children to hear records of the program selections. . Flan Tone Demonstration At the beginning of the program, each instrument will be played individually to demonstrate the tone characteristics. The program follows: “America Exultant,” Al.

They outlined their work into straight-agent selling, group selling, and selling by sixty-eight students as “live-wire salesmen ” At the first drive meeting two students, Jack Warner and John Burgess, gave an act demonstrating right and wrong methods of approaching the “subject." The students used their originality in preparing eighty advertising posters. Small contests were promoted. and alumni and night school students were drawn into the campaign by the “live-wire" advertisers.

Fay School

Berniece Dorris, an 8A pupil, won the spelling contest for this school. Each day some class gives her oral spelling practice for a few minutes. A mud contest has been started by the 8A class. Every day the pupils sweep up the mud in one of the rooms and weigh it. It is swept and weighed the following day, to see if the dirt decreases. None of the pupils knows which room has been tested until a poster is placed in the hall with the amount of dirt found and a slogan to go with it.

’THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

STUDENTS SEEK WORK TO BOOST SCHOOL ORGAN Arsenal Technical Seniors Sponsor Drive for New Instrument. Five thousand jobs are wanted by 5,000 Arsenal Technical High School students who are “willing to work,” “ready to please,” and “guarantee satisfaction.” Their principal, Milo H. Stuart, has issued the first official announcement of plans for fulfilling his dream of a pipe organ for the new auditorium now being erected and has called on the student body to help him. Ends With “Job Week” Aided by the June senior class and the Arsenal Cannon staff members, Principal Stuart has planned an official “job week" during which the students will donate any funds earned from now on until that time. The plan for raising the organ fund was kept secret by Stuart and the seniors until the announcement Thursday in a special “organ” issue of the Arsenal Cannon, school pub- | lication. Every senior now is employed at I any sort of job available and many have turned in the first money. A | few have reported that they are picking sweet peas in a green house, washing dishes, caring for babies, scrubbing porches, washing cars, painting signs, washing windows and mending. Seniors Take Lead Stuart has commended the enthusiasm of the upper classmen and i said that they have “set the pace” and that much of the success of the project depends upon their efforts. The first plans for the organ campaign were made March 7 when a senior committee held a special conference with Stuart. The students were Kenneth Higgins. Dortha McGee, John Martin. Farrington Bridwell, Benjamin Carter, Mildred Beard, William Weiss, Ruth Pahud and Joseph Quigley. These representatives originated “job week” which was passed upon by the principal. Every Technical student now is expected to secure some part-time employment and give his earnings : to the fund. They will start to work j at once and turn in their money during job week, April 9-13.
