WOODWARD Machine Shop University of Alabama Lovers ok Music Welcome Music Appreciation Music lovers of Murphy are happy in the new class in music appreciation that has been added to the curriculum. Under the direction of Mrs. Myrtle Peter the class is making great progress. Its purpose is to build an appreciation of music by listening to records of some of the great artists and through studying their lives and their music. These music lovers hear reports from members of the class and attend performances of local and visiting artists whenever possible. One of their projects has been to build a stage and enact an opera. Members of the class tal- ented in singing often share their talent with the class purely for enjoyment. M OH I AN [23
