Bell, added much to the over-all spirit of the school this year. Although the opening of school found them short of equipment and uniforms, the band donned their red sweat ers and proved that uniforms are not the only element to a successful band. Student participation was very evident in the band. The Student Band Council, with Mr. Bell’s help, set up rules and regulations for the members to follow. Larry Wright was student director and helped Mr. Bell also. Besides the regular band, Mr. Bell organized a Pep Band and a Stage Band for any members who wanted to participate. ... ‘And the band played on.” 30

Miss McIntyre stimulates students into reading by her unusual and catchy bulletin boards. The library, the center of the school, has proven to be indispensable to teachers and students. The largest most attractive in the city school system, the library had an outstanding collection of learning materials, from filmstrips to tapes and recordings. A variety of subject matter was contained in the form of books, newspapers, and magazines. Many students found in the library a quiet place to study, think or read their favorite books. Certainly our library contributed to the beauty and educational aspects of T.W. Andrews. Where Solitude is Found Miss Eaves worked diligently for library improvement. 29 The librarian, Miss McIntyre, assisted with students’ research work.
