Math, Foreign Language Help Students Math IS a very important part of education at North- view, One year of math is a graduation requirement, although entrance to most universities requires even more. Math is helpful in almost any career a student is planning to enter. Even the most common |obs require a basic knowledge of mathematics. College bound students find math very important when they take the Scholastic Aptitude Test, half of the test is math. Foreign Language is another important subject for college bound students. Colleges requ ire at least two years of the same language. This also assists students in communicating with people who speak different lan- guages. Foreign Language also helps people understand the different customs of other countries.

After 16 years, Mr. Lindsey continued to tram these two groups, which consisted of forty girls and only one male, Tom Urioste. Although Mr. Lindsey had tremendous respect for Tom ' s devotion to choir (even if he was the only boy), he wished more boys had tried out for Viking Choir and Madrigals. Northview ' s singing departments had a busy schedule this year. On December 9 these two choral groups began singing at the nearby elementary and junior high schools. The Presbyterian Women ' s Club requested only the Madrigals for a presentation on December II, but on the 19th, Viking Choir again joined Madrigals for their annual Christmas performance at the Covina United Methodist Church. Finally, along with the flowers and sunshine that June provided, that month called for Viking Choir and Madrigals to perform for Baccalaureate, at the United Methodist on Sunday the 15th. Viking Choir was an open class, but for the nineteen girls who were involved with Madrigals this past year, a try-out was necessary. Some of the requirements for a perspective Madrigal were as follows: one had to be able to sight read music, which is the ability to study a piece of music for the first time and sing it satisfactorily; simply read music notes; and, last but not least, the person who tried out had to possess strong vocal versa- tility. Among the top priorities for making Madrigals was good citizenship! Lome Learmont, the president of Clef Dwellers, when asked at the beginning of the year what she hoped would be accomplished in this year ' s club responded, 1 hope to have an organized Sadie Hawkins. This year Clef Dwellers, which had the responsibility of promoting Northview ' s singing departments, held the Sadie Haw- kins Dance. At the beginning of the ' 85- ' 86 school year Mr. Lindsey predicted that this year ' s choral groups would prove enjoyable and emit a feeling of happiness to the audience. From the turn-out of people at the many functions held this year for Viking Choir and Madrigals, Mr, Lindsey ' s predictions became fact!
