Pupils in art and music find that the Art Club and Music Departments are a good place to develop new interests. Art Club members find that there are many hobbies connected with art. Examples include paint¬ ing, ceramics, sculpturing, and molding. Music Department pupils may take an active part in the band or other instrumental groups. Those in chorus may sing in different groups such as glee club, girls quartet, girls ensemble and the boys quartet. Records particularly interest teen-agers because relaxing and listening to records is a favorite pastime. Central’s brass quartet, Delora Mishler, Jim Hoffman, Brenda Sommer, and Dewey Arnold, plays for different organizations. Music is fun and a good pastime.
