Vocal groups . . Mixed Chorus, Girls' Glee Club and Boy's Glee Club: these were the vocal groups led by Nlr. Max Byrd. The music organizations participated in the annual spring concert and an evening of solos and ensembles. Several ensembles performed for the teacher's banquet, school asemblies and various lodges, churches and civic clubs of Joplin. The Christmas assembly featured several vocal presentations. Mr. Byrd commented, The assem- bly was very well received and we're glad we did it. Students discussed their vocal music units. We do Bach corales for assemblies and Bacharach for fun isenior boyi. The voice has endless possibilities-more than any single instrument. It is also very responsive to the emotions and has special communication potential isenior girlj. A fine education is made complete with aesthetic experiences. Singing fulfills these artistic needs that de- velop young people culturally iMr. Byrdl.

IMAGE, Quill and Scroll . . . Publications people made up the organization called Quill and Scroll. The main project of the group was the Christmas issue of the Spyglass. Staffers of Spyglass and Talon turned in stor- ies, poems, photographs and drawings to co-editors Dianne Crites and Mike Brockett. One member remarked, Talon was having a dead- line at the same time the Christmas Spyglass was being put together-which made it hard for them to contribute. But the creative writing class helped out. Another stu- dent commented, The issue holds the Christmas thoughts of so many people I know-it's a good thing to have and keep. Image proves that several students, sharing their ideas, can produce something really great. HA collec- tion of creations is really a collection of personalities. By reading the literary magazine of a school, you can find out a lot about the background and thinking of the persons there. 'flmage is an outlet for anyone at school who can find his release-his expression-in words. tex- 99
