Miss Johnson joins her gym class in a fast game of deck tennis. In Musical Sounds and Physical Well Being This year, the top notch coaching staff at WHS turned out teams that wc shall always be proud of. Good sports themselves, the coaches pitched in at the Faculty-Varsity basketball game to help cheerleaders raise money for much needed equipment. In the classroom, as well as on the playing field, our coaches show us the need for good sportsmanship and fair play. An important department at Wayzata is the music department. Our music directors have “around the clock” jobs by giving lessons, and directing the swing band (to mention just a couple of extras) besides their regular duties. Mr. Willard Budnick has charge of the senior high band and chorus, and the junior high chorus, while Mr. Roy Ilanscn heads the prep band and junior high music classes. Imagine providing classes in “phy. cd” for 450 or 500 girls! This is Miss Beverly Johnson's job and it’s not an easy one. I ler class is a “day brightener and is known for those infamous “physical efficiency” tests. Besides her classes, Miss Johnson supervises GAA and heads the girls' basketball tournament.

Students create works of art under Mr. Dostal's supervision Make Us More Aware of Our Surroundings For the first time at Wayzata, students were heard muttering phrases “en le Franca is.” In past years Spanish and Latin have been offered as for eign languages, and the addition of French gives us a well-rounded language department. Spanish classes have long been favorites, with their colorful parties and programs. The breaking of the candy-filled Christmas pinata and a dinner at an authentic Spanish restaurant were two of the year’s outstanding activities. Literature and grammar are two important subjects that are covered in our English classes. Each vear a different section of literature is studied. I his varied program enables students to gain a background in ail phases of English. Two new departments were added this year: art and journalism. The art classes opened their new department to the public at a winter art exhibit. Some of their projects during the year included work with paper mache. glass painting, copper foil, puppetry, and paper sculpture. Hie classes also spent much time constructing scenery for plays, maxing attractive posters, and setting up displays in the nail show cases. journalism prepares students for positions on school publications as well as giving a general background for those who wish to continue in the field. The classes prepared “dummy” copies of the school paper after learning the procedures involved and also studied various phases of journalistic writing and technique.
