Music Siimulaies Cultural Appreciation MR. JOSEPH BEARDEN is busy getting out some new music for the aftemoon band session. If Mr. Bearden is not directing either the High School or Grade School bands or working with small music groups, he may be found in the darkroom as the ad- viser of the Kamera Klub. The mixed chorus brings forth harmony during their practice period. During a si.xth hour band rehearsal, the band plays on under the direction of Mr. Beardeu. Mixed choms, girls' and boys' choruses, the sextet, and the vocal contestants are directed by MISS CHARLOTTE GLENN, whom we see here seated at the new piano in the vocal department. Miss Glenn also teaches vocal music in the grade school. 6
