Most of the band members participated in many contests and brought back mostly first and second ratings. The band played at all the home basketball games, and at the county tourney. Also, the band made a record- ing that was played over WKJG radio. Pop music, during the year was outstanding. Bud Gillett com- posed an arrangement of Sloopy and led the band in this song many times at the basketball games. Gary Thomas, Bud Gillett, Danny Stuckey, Norman Stump and Terry Souder were soloists in many songs. The band wrapped up a fine year by returning home from contest with a second place rating. The choir had several performances, including those at the Christmas program, the Spring concert, Bac- calareate, and several area churches. They also sang at the Band and Choir Awards Night, and made a recording for a radio program. They competed at District Contest and came back with a second place rating. They were accompanied by Debby Knepp and Mel Killett.

In shop class the boys work on various projects under Mr. Heller ' s direction. From Home Economics to Business to Shop were three steps of education provided for Leo students. During the first semester the Home Economics class- es studied food preparations, buying foods, and serv- ing meals. Sewing was studied during the second semester. The 7th grade worked in the area of needlecraft while some of the other classes did a fabric study and learned how to read patterns. The advanced class worked on wool suits. Aiding in the total development of a student of Business, Mrs. Mumma and Mr. Getting guided the students through shorthand, typing, business math, and clerical office practice. Along with the text, each student was given training in posture, poise, and personality, plus the arts of mimeographs, thermofax, stencils and ledgers. Leading the boys in the shop, Mr. Heller gave his time, skills, and patience in the finer points of manual art, automobiles, and wood construction pro- jects. Machine know-how and safety were stressed as the boys learned to use the shop ' s tools. Vocational Art Students The 7th grade Home Economics tried their hand at knitting while Mrs. Harrah helped Pam Hobson. During a demonstration for the Home Economics class, Robin Timmerman styled Susan Howard ' s hair. 20
