P 65 WE HEMINISCE In A More Serious Mood As ninth graders look back over the past three years, they become aware, for the first time perhaps, of the many privileges, opportunities, and experiences they have taken for granted in SJHS. Three students have expressed their appreciation. OUR MUSIC PROGRAM IS TOPS The musical education offered to the students of Junior High School in addition to the regular class work is literally worth hundreds of dollars if it could be figured in dollars and cents. In the instrumental department, Mr. Pardee and Mr. Howenstine have given free lessons weekly during the school year to every student who is willing to work. These lessons are given during seventh, eighth and ninth grades, and when a student progresses to the point where he is ready for band or orchestra, he becomes a member of this group. Similar opportunities are given in the vocal department. Mr. French has given many hours at noon and after school to several ensembles, trios, and quartets who practice for en- joyment as well as for the purpose of making public appearances. When you stop to think about it, Salem has a wonderful music program that no other town can beat. How many of us have expressed our appreciation to Mr. Pardee Mr. Howenstine or Mr. French? , ATHLETIC PROGRAM AND EQUIPMENT ARE TOPS, TOO Do we appreciate our athletic program? The boys, especial- ly, should be appreciative of the fine program and equipment that is provided. Did you know that Salem possesses one of the best tracks in our district? This is also true of the foot- ball field. In Junior High School, every boy has the opportunity to participate in a sport, In addition to the required physical education program, the sports program includes All Star and intramural football, an All Star basketball team for each grade as well as intramural basketball, and seventh, eighth, and ninth grade track teams. No boy can say he did not have the opportunity to participate in a sport. The men responsible for this fine program are Mr. Boone, Mr. Pridon, Mr. Martin, Mr. Cope, Mr. French, Mr. Goard, Mr. Barrett. DO YOU MEAN WHAT YOU SAY? I pledge allegiance to the flag.....one nation... ,, with liberty and justice for all. We say these words at each assembly, but few or any of us stop to think what they mean. Perhaps the reason that no one bothers to think what liberty and justice mean is that few of us have been without these privileges which the United States extends to its citizens. The Bill of Rights, Constitution, and many other important documents are just the pages in the history book that we read and study and may even memorize because the teacher assigns them, but not because we are interested in knowing the basis of our freedom, continued on page 66
