RICHARD LUM MRS. Department Head STROHMAN ' ' I DOROTHY ' I em! ff! exflefk' The music department played an im- portant role on the McKinley campus. The chorus and the advanced band were frequently called on to participate in the weekly assemblies and delighted the stu- dent body with their m u s i c al arrange- ments. The presence of the band at each football game added color to the occasion and boosted the morale of the cheering section as well as the team. Besides serving the school, students enrolled in the music classes acquired a finer understanding of music, and many discovered for the first time a worthwhile leisure time activity or hobby in music. For many band students, their musical enrichment paved their way to promising careers in this field. Other music courses offered were in- termediate band, el e m e n t a r y theory, history and appreciation of music, and piano. TO SING IN HARMONY is one aim of these girls ,L MUSICALLY INC LINED students like Leonard Oki, above, who is practicing the scales on his saxophone, find the band class the perfect outlet for their musical talents, in the chorus class who are, left to right, Elizabeth Costa Sybil Huihui.

Field trips were ta- ken to familiarize the students with farm- ing and nursery management. In both agriculture classes, the stu- dents developed good citizenship as they learned to work amicably with each other.
