MR. FRANK BUTENSCHON Band and glee club classes, under the direction of Mr. Frank Butenschon, furnished a musical back- ground at VHS. At pep rallies, football games, and basketball games, the band bolstered enthusiasm. As well as light pieces, band and glee club members also learned and presented classical music. They rep- resented the school at state and local festivals. Warren Johnson, trumpet player, made All-State Band, and the band as a whole received a superior rating. Parades and other community functions gave the public an opportunity to see the school’s musical pro- gram in action. 28

Various Media Challenge Art Classes Chalk, fabric, oils, water colors— these media are available for Mrs. Mar- sha Quarterman’s art students. With chalk they emphasize line in landscapes, portraits, and still lifes. Water colors and oils help students obtain variety in shades and designs. Collages-—patterns made from fabric, match boxes, leaves, and construction paper—accentuate creativity. Utilizing these materials, students construct pic- tures in keeping with modem themes. For the study of lettering and calli- graphy, they use pen and India ink. They also highlight‘certain areas in water colors with ink. Mrs. Quarterman, who guides students in the understanding of these materials, teaches two art classes at VHS and then goes to junior high where she teaches three classes. Julie Groover, senior, helps Mrs. Marsha Quarterman gather supplies before first period art class begins. 27 MRS. MARSHA QUARTERMAN
