For the past eight years the music department of New Bern High School has flourished and grown under the direction of David Walters. His service and foresight have resulted in many outstanding changes and additions in our ap- preciation and learning of music. Under his guidance the band and orchestra have set high standards of quality and have won many honors. Mr. Walters has evoked such an increased inter-- est in the musical Held that presently over a fourth of the high school student are enrolled in the music program.

WALTERS In 1959 as a service not only to our school, but to schools across the nation, Mr. Walters was co-author of a new book entitled The Bandsman. The Dance Band is another achieve- ment of Mr. Walters.-F or four years the Dance Band has functioned, each year growing in stat- ure and popularity. The high respect held by the students and by others of New Bernls' musical organizations is a glowing tribute to the service, leadership, and p e r s o n a l assistance of Mr. Walters. So, it is with sincerest gratitude that we dedi- cate the 1960 Bruin to Mrs. Whitley and Mr. Walters for their self-sacrifice and service to us. Page F we

I TRODUCTIO We have chosen the influences and effects of the seasons as the theme of the 1960 BRUIN. Each season brings with it certain moods, emotions, . and activities. The playful seasons decorate the school plant in varying moods- youth- ful green and gay in spring, grey and melancholy in Winter. Although the changing seasons affect our growth and development during the school year, more permanent aspects also infiuence us. The administration, the faculty, the course of study, the school plant-these seem to hold qualities of permanency and changelessness that place them in no particular season but in the perspective of continuing forces from year to year. Thus, the stable, enduring, almost immutable part of our school life precedes the more seasonal divisions of fall, Winter, spring, and summer.
