Musical Skills Taught with Enthusiasm The music department is one of the hardest working and most fun-loving groups in the school. The marching Tiger band starts practice during the summer so that they are near perfection when September comes. There is also a band class for beginners or those working their way into the marching band. The band participates in the University interscholastic League contest every year. lVlr. Randy Lofgren, who enjoys contemporary music almost as much as his students, directs music-making at WHS. Besides working with the Regit Singers and a chorus class preparing them- selves for choir membership, lVlr. Lofgren selects the best singers to participate in Golden Voices. This lVlarch Golden Voices is producing an LP record of pop music. The Golden Voices are also planning a tour to Nlexico in the spring. TOP: lVIr. Randy Lofgren introduces his Golden Voices to the audience with mixed emotions - anxiety, eagerness, hopefulness and fear. BOTTOM: After many weeks of practice and drilling, Nlr. Richard Perot is ready to show what his band can do. .1 fi Nlr. N.R. Lofgren, M.M. Baylor Univ. Mr. R.G. Perot, M.M.Ed. Midwestern Univ. 21
