3 -eff ' x 3 M fd Jw. Mr. Gregory of the orchestra and Mr. Dutton of the chorus show that music really is fun. IC That music hath charm to soothe the breast of savage beast is amply made manifest with the marvelous music department at North Miami. Pro- viding stirring marches and novelties at the foot- ball games, presenting thrilling half-time shows, producing inspiring vocal and instrumental con- certs throughout the year are just the normal ac- companiment to sound teaching of music and music appreciation on the part of our three fine music teachers. Year after year our orchestra, chorus, and band bring home honors and acclaim from their com- petition with other schools in the state of Florida. They have proved that culture excels at North Miami just as physical prowess on the gridiron, court, and track. The student body at our school owes a great debt to Mr. Alexander, Chairman of the Depart- ment, Mr. Gregory, and Mr. Dutton for providing beautiful and splendid music. 38 Many honors have come to our music department under the fine and friendly leadership of Mr. Robert Alexander. ,qu 4.
