FACULTY Under the direction of Superintendent J. G. Hagaman and Principal Fred W. Lentz the conservatory of Lenoir High has completed another successful season. The teachers, who are themselves able soloists in their fields, have used their batons to good purpose in pointing out the fine points of technique invaluable to young musicians in the orches- tra of the world. ln addition to the usual program, the faculty Z' inf. .'5' 3: l 4 i members have conducted various extra activi- ties which help broaden student interest and add greately to the school curriculum. ln these organizations, teachers abandon the scales and exercises of general classwork and deal more with character-builders of music- such as interpretation, composition, and har- mony. With such an excellent staff membership it is no wonder that the record of this year's faculty is tops on the Hit Parade. Miss Mary Angley, M.A. English in Mrs. J. B. Bernard Spanish Mrs. Virginia S.
