Musicians increased The music department offered courses dealing with choir, band, and orchestra. Special classes involving music appreciation were also available. All students were eligible to participate in varsity choir and training choir; however, those interested in A Cappella, Orchestra, and Varsity and Concert bands had to audition. These groups performed in three concerts in the auditorium that were open to the public, at games, and for pep sessions. The Troubadours, a small part of the A Cappella choir, entertained at the Senior Banquet. New to the de- partment was the arts class, a requirement for all sophomores. By hearing and studying famous works students gained a greater appreciation of music. This group has separated from the band and does so at least once a week so they can perfect their unity in every woy.
