Talks with friends the Homecoming dance, and millions of other things music helped us through them all. 1 When classes got boring, students like Jack Fairchild livened them up with his banjo and a few knee-slapping tunes. 2 Even school couldn't take some of us away from our music. Here, Kenneth King listens to his tape recorder, 3 As Nellie in South Pacific, Hope Harrell had a chance to show the skill and talent learned through years of practice, and private voice lessons outside of choir, 4 Many students took interests in all kinds of music besides the radio.
