Future Teachers of America 1 1 : The Future Teachers of Mount Rainier are organized for the purpose of creating interest in and learning about the teaching profession, exploring our own abilities in relation to the various fields of teaching, and to cultivate personality, character, and leadership characteristics, which are necessary for good teachers. To fulfill its purposes the Future Teachers worked on many projects and activi- ties. One of the most important projects was raising money in order to give a schol- arship to one of its members. A minor activity was keeping a display in the admin- istration building. During the last half of the year the club began to work as student teachers at Midway Elementary, Pacific Junior High, and here at Mount Rainier. It was a worthwhile experience to everyone involved and will become a traditional part of the program in the future. This year's officers were Schuehle, Barbara President, Koontz, Marsha Vice Presi- dent, Dansenberg, Sue Secretary, Gran, Gale Treasurer, MacDonald, Marlana Historian. The faculty advisor is Mrs. lfVhitehall. 68

We The music department, under the direction of Mr. Bayne and Mr. Talbot, assisted by Mrs. Young, had another year of spectacular growth in numbers. The performing groups included over 260 students. Formal concerts in- cluded the Christmas Concert, Winter 'Popsi Concert and Spring Concert, but there were also many performances outside of school. Mt. Rainier was represented at all contests and festivals open for their participation, includ- ing the newly organized Puget Sound League Music Competitions. They also gave concerts at several Jr. High schools. With the proceeds of the 3rd annual candy sale more uniforms and equipment were purchased to dress up' the performing groups. The Concert Band, with Mr. Bayne at the baton, had another successful and performance-Hlled year. During the football season they marched Cweather permittingj and provided musical entertainment at all home games. For the Christmas concert they presented the complete Peer Gynt Suite and again sang in the massed chorus. The new year saw preparations in full swing for the February pops concert in which popular music held full sway. Springtime brought the Puget Sound League Band Contest, District Band Festival and Spring Concert. Commencement music brought the musical school year to an exciting close, but band members will practice once a week all summer and partic- ipate in several local parades. Individual honors for band members went to g Kathy Putnam - All-state Band and Ann Putnam - All-state Orchestra. Officers were Jim Hunt, president, Mickey Simpson, vice-president, Diane Martin, secretary, and Linda McClellan, treasurer. 70 Concert Band QalumOwuMwSi0 S 5 SY - vi ts 'Y'
