Ryan, Department Chairman Mr Wayne Goodnow , I Muslc While walking by the music rooms, one might hear anything from a Mozart Symphony to a hit by the Beatles. There are so many different instrumental groups at Guilderland, that they almost cover every type and as- pect of music. The orchestra, band, and choir are what make up the diverse Music Department. These groups are employed into the musical plays that Guilder- land produces, enabling each stu- dents to express all he has learned. YT t 1:1 ti , L lk.

Physical Education The Physical Education Department, at Guilderland, wages a constant Battle of the Bulge. The main obicctive of this capable staff is to keep our student body physically fir. To accomplish this end, the gym teachers offer a variety of activities during the year. Everyone participates in soccer, football, volleyball, basketball, gymnmics, tennis, softball, and track. Variations include field hockey for the girls and wrestling for the boys. Intramurals are offered in most sports for those who are more arhletically inclined. Basketball seems to be a popular intramural sport, M the boys have a tournament and the girls have several pIaydays with other schools. The Guilderlnnd gym program is successful due to dedicated teachers and a variety of activities provided. ps Mr. Herman XYyl.l, Varsity XY'rcstling Mrs. Sylvia Tlicrriault, Girl's Bowling, CONN Intr.imur.tls, ,l.V.

Foreign Language French, Spanish, Russian and German are the sounds one will hear when walking down the corridors of our Foreign Language Department. One of its main aims is to bring faraway countries iust a little closer to the snrdent. The languages taught at Guilderland certainly represent a vast number of faraway places. Language class includes much more than simply reading, writing, listening and speaking in a foreign language, This year the language resource center has been deemed most valuable by students, as :ivell as . d. . faculty. There, a student may receive concentrated attention in a rtion to the foreign films, foreign magazines, and newspapers and short-wave radio reproductions that are also common to his student. This spring there is an added incentive for Spanish students-a trip to Spain. Although from exposure to any foreign language, we hope to form a bridge producing an increased understanding between the nations of the world. Nts, Elizabeth Rowe, French 1, 2.
