MUSIC Tappan Zee football games wouldn't be complete if they lacked the colorful TZ. Band and Marching Group. Throughout the fall, with gay and original routines, they enliven half-times for the eager root- ers. At their head, seven twirlers strut forth led by Majorette Florence Kopac. The band, under the baton of Mr. Tebo, is kept busy year 'round. In addition to performance at the games, they give con- certs, participate in parades. Another phase of the Music Depart- mentis work is the TZ. Chorus. 60 mem- bers strong, all singing in harmony, the Chorus meets twice a week. Concerts and school assemblies ring out with their songs. Outstanding members of band and chorus also take part in the All-County Band and the All-County Chorus. in hi h. Mr. Tebo explains graphically the rudiments of music.

Tappan Zee offers French, Latin and Spanish to any student interested in increasing his knowledge of words and their use. The study of a foreign language opens up a whole new world. Strange people, their customs and their language soon become new friends. That's Saragossan, declares Mr. DiSanza to his Spanish class.
