In the Fine Arts Department the third and last section is the Music Department, which includes band, choir, orchestra, and music theory classes. The band per- formed at various schaol and civic functions, and helped to promote school spirit through its activities. Choir classes were filled with vo- calizing and practice for many concerts presented throughout the year. Under the direction of Mr. MacDonald, the orchestra gave programs at school and in conjuntion with the Roanoke Youth Symphony. Transposition, modern jazz, classical music, and music history provided students with a sound, yet exciting musical background. Good music comes from lots of hard work on the part of the director as well as the musicians. Mr. Clyde MacDonald shows his enthusiasm as he motions for the desired effects, and finally grins when they are produced. 31

Physical Education Presents Activities For Every Interest-From lsometrics To Archery Along with the fundamental training of the mind, the Pat- rick Henry Physical Education Department believes that the students should be instructed so- cially, physically, and! emotion- ally. This department provides opportunities for participation in physical activities, for develop- ment of the organic systems so that each may function at its highest level, and for building skills in activities with a favor- able attitude toward sportsman- ship that will carry over and be useful during leisure time. By using s'pecially designed equipment, such as contractional bars, boys are able to participate in isometrics, they may also par- ticipate in such athletics as vol- leyball, basketball, track, foot- ball, tumbling, ping pong, golf, tennis, and baseball. Girls may engage in many of the sports and activities just listed. ln addition gymnastics, hockey, archery, badmiton, and the newly organized bowling pro- gram are available. Gratifying box office receipts from the Phys. Ed. Show will mean the purchase of much new equip- ment for the Physical Education Department. ln tumbling, classes learned how to build four ti-er pyramids as demonstrated by the second period junior gym class.
