U7 Csfrenyffens ygoofes 75 ZUQHQ-7.9 Freshman girls do exercises under the watchful eyes of Miss Edith Smith. Walking hand-in-hand with mental development is physical development. A requirement of all freshmen, physical education is a valuable aspect in the curriculum at Northwest. From the first Ready! Exercisell, it is evident that this is more than just a play period. This is a time of co-operation and teamwork, stemming from personal participation. Sharing the spotlight with health, the physical education program enables the student to learn more about himself as he takes part in the pre-planned exercises and sports. This period each day offers an outlet for relieving the built-up tensions every student experiences. Alternating days in the gym, both the boys and girls have a varied course of events throughout the week. From volleyball, soccer, or basketball to a co-educational plan on Friday, physical education proves to be a challenging area of academic life at Northwest.

Mr. Richard Keasler A.B.g Catawba College Chorus ff? Uzkz 012 Cerfs, jfaffme 0 ws, anoffracfzbe The Choral Department at Northwest Cabarrus, under the direction of Mr. Richard Keasler, has grown and expanded into the excellent and well-rounded program now available to all interested and capable students. The continuous practice during school and after-school hours, combined with the determination and desire of the chorus members, has assured our school of a superior chorus. Selected groups of students were chosen to participate in the extracurricular activities of the chorus, such as the Mars Hill and Chapel Hill Choral Clinics, the Greensboro All-State festival, and the all-important, annual choral contest in Charlotte. The chorus performed before the student body several times this year, at the Christmas Concert and the Spring Concert. Other performances at churches, banquets, and special meetings rounded out the active schedule of the chorus. Due to the dedication and determination of both Mr. Keasler and the chorus members, the Choral Department has become a vital, and growing part of Northwest life. Chorus members take full advan- tage of class- room time to rehearse the up- coming Christ- mas concert. f Z1 f ,L . 72 '

Z. . . - JFOUIQ CU Juniors and seniors, who do not plan to further their education after graduation from high school, are able to receive vocational training through the Distributive Education or Industrial Co-operative Training courses. These classes provide the students with part-time employment during the school year, and present a better understanding of the business world to them. The main goal of the D.E. program is to introduce the opportunities in sales promotion, economics, business organization, career planning and psychology to the student. Under the I.C.T. program, students receive training which develops their own personal skills. Through the D.E. and I.C.T. courses, students gain experience and training that will assure them of advances in the business world. Distributive Education students host representatives from various vocations during Career Week activities. Here, we see Danny McLain with a representative of the Concord Police Department. 3 r 2 x J arf-fzlme CSXUQQJQX Crjmpkymezzf
