Home economics prepared students for living in tomorrow's world. A few of the courses offered by the department to meet this goal were food and nutrition, child development, and tex- tiles and clothing. These courses not only taught students to cook and sew, but also prepared them for both career and family life. Home economics classes were taken by male and female students. The members of the department were pleased to see the eagerness of the male students to enroll in these courses. Anna Elliott, department chairperson, was especially pleased with the success of the Hungry Ram restaurant. The Hungry Ram was the only restaurant in the county completely managed by students. , 'fav-e' f ff k - 3 l. Amy Dolby irons her blouse. 2.

Music Department Music classes produced talented performers. Talent and many hours of practice were required of the music student. A wide variety of courses were offered by the music department. Some of the courses offered included: Girl's Cho- rus, Piano Lab, Marching Band and Ensemble. Mrs. Kay Alcorn, department chairman, taught piano classes and Mixed Chorus. Mrs. Stella Cottrell, a new member of the staff, was in charge of Girls' Chorus and Ensemble. Mr. Rich- ard Parker taught all the band classes. These performance- oriented classes offered entertainment to the student body with their seasonal programs. A highlight for the students was the concert given by the vocal students. This concert, held before Christmas, featured Girls, Chorus and Ensemble, as well as performances by solo artists and Sha Na Na. Mr. Parker was very proud of the Marching Band as were all the members. The band was very young, but it didnat matter because at half time the show was as fantastic as ever. The members of the music department classes helped out on many occassions with their performances. Whether it was a pep rally or Coronation, they were willing to share their musical talent. 1.
