Musical Beats Echo Throughout the Halls To ease the strain of academic study the students of Hemingford High School sought pleasure in various types of musical entertainment. Band, chorus, and individual entertainment groups brought forth self-expression and emotional involvement. Mr. Arnold Quinonez directed the music department in both elementary and high school functions. The chorus groups participated in two public concerts, one clinic, and Panhandle “C contest. The band not only performed in these activities but also played in several local parades during marching season. The highlight of the year for the elementary students came when they presented their annual Christmas program. As well as being stimulating, music also helps the student in developing his cultural characteristics. The students learn the elements of harmony, balance, and cooperation, which lead to many new rewarding experiences. 14
