BA DPRO OTE NEWE THUSIA M In every school there is a music department, and in every music department there are two divisions: the vocal music and the instrumental music. Here at Mid-America the vocal music department seems to receive more attention, but that does not mean that we are without a band. Our band is a small group, but the talent is definitely there. Under the direction of Professor Richard Cantwell this talent is brought out and made to do some very fine things. Prof. Cantwell, Assistant Professor of Music, came to us this year from Eastern Nazarene College. His enthusiasm and love of music brightens the group and helps us to strive for perfection while we enjoy ourselves at the same time. The band officers help him in his task of leading our group. They are President Dave Jones, Vice President Woodie Stevens and Secretary Debbie Dyer. The band's first performance was at the Thanksgiving Concert, along with the Heritage Singers and Chapel Choir. It has also performed in chapel and at the demonstration for approval of President Nixon's war policy. The pep band does its part by adding life and spirit to our home and some out-of-town basketball games. .101 hx Under the leadership of Prof Cantwell, the band has become an active part of the music department.

PHYSICAL ED U CA TIO AID HEALTH, TRE GTH Heading the Physical Education Department of MANC is Coach Bud Harbin. Besides having the full time job of coaching the MANC Pioneers, Coach Harbin also teaches all P.E. classes. For some, Frustration is having a man for a gym teacher. Coach Harbin seems to have solved this problem with his new assistant, Jane Harbin. In addition to occupying the role of housewife and mother, she has taken on the task of assisting her husband in his women's Physical Education classes. Under Coach Harbin's direction, the women parti- cipated in table tennis, basketball, calisthenics, volleyball and softball. The men built their strength in the regular gym classes, plus a newly added weight lifting class. New equipment has been added to help in the broadening of the athletic program, and these make it possible for the expansion of the intramural program. Men receive both enjoyment and exercise as they participate in the activities of Physical Education. ,,ffta, in we ' ,v W NWMWWWQ, Y , , A ELMER HARBIN-Assistant Professor of Religiong B.S., University of Missouri,'M.Ea'., University Of MiSS0UVi-
