What 102 lacks in athletic prowess it makes up in music, six pupils being in the glee club and one in the advanced orchestra.

Joc;,ephine Heilman, who sings in the glee club, is said by Mrs. White to be quite the tops.

Frank Elias, one of the shorter pupils, has the highest average grade in the home room. His averageisoneand two-thirds. Ruth Bstandig and Marjorie Randall are close behind with an average of two.
