Separate classes of music theory and sight reading teach be- ginners the basic fundamentals of music. Advanced students are in performing groups where they put their knowledge of funda- mentals to use. There are four musical groups-the CHORALEERS, a mixed group of eighty voicesg a GIRLS' GLEE CLUBg the FOUR DEUCES, a male quartetg and the SIX- TEENS, a group of six girls. Students who are interested in instru- mental music may enroll in band. This musical unit is presently made up of forty- two members who meet each day for group and individual instruction. Another period is devoted to giving special help to the clari- net section. Proper care and repair of instru- ments is also taught.
