Barbee up to orient the sophomores Several hundred musicians were enrolled in the music courses this year-some intent upon profes- sional careers, others content to be amateurs. In either case they learned music, performing at pub- lic concerts as Well as school assemblies and during daily class practice. During half-time and before and after games, WJ's marching band sounded the fight songs and paraded through many a complicated maze, leaving the spectators back at the first turn. Boops and beeps coming from the gym were pro- duced by a band of a different nature. Composed of thirteen instrumentalists and one vocalist, the dance band performed at the Pop's Concert, at a Lion's Club dance, and during all six lunch periods every day. A. Smith, L. Craig, G.

Martin In 4 it , l 15 z Ii I -1 .I Turning from Bee-bop-a-lula to Mozart, We see the orchestra come into view. Meeting fifth period every day, they practiced for concerts, contests, and assemblies. The top ten by orches- tra rating ranged from Seventy-six Trom- bones to Mozart's Symphony in G Minor. To the Concert Chorus, school concerts and assemblies were negligible after their television appearance. This group of songsters projected so vigorously over the air that their appearance on Dave Garroway's Today was viewed in liv- ing rooms throughout the area. For those warblers who could not fit chorus into their schedules, the Glee Club was avail- able, and those Whose voices struck a major chord became the Madrigals.
