Perkins I hi took to practicing separately in the chorus room to iron out their rough spots. The system seemed to work well. Mr. Doug Miller, student teacher from UNC-G, wrought miracles with Western's first jazz band. The 'azz band play- ed at basketbafl games and at concerts. Unfortunately, it died with the return of Doug to the'University. His effect on the band was absorbed by the students and noticed by the whole student body. The concert band was kept busy preparing for the Thanks- giving, Christmas and Spring Assembly Programs. They also entered competition against other county schools at the Greensboro Coliseum and earned an excellent rating. On Tuesday, March 7, Mr. Spencer and Western Guil- ford were host to the Guilford County Pre-Contest Band Clinic. Four Hundred and forty-six students attended the clinic which lasted all day. Officers for this year were Chuck Tate, president, jeff French, vice president, and Shelly Sweetman, sec.-treas. l l l fl l 1 llll I I gigs I I . , - .1 iii-11 HHH-i... -all - 5 M l U fk-l.

Western supported two choral classes this year -third and fourth period - both taught by Mrs. Margaret Hawks. Third period chorus rew out of a group of restlessiids. They had proved to be too much to handle during study hall, so with the approval of Mr. Walters, they became a chorus class. It was rather doubtful, at first, as to whether this was a solution, but under Mrs. Hawk's guidance the class be- gan to make progress. It grad- ually turned into something similar to a group-therapy session. Mrs. Hawks had great rap- port with her students, and while sometimes they proved hard to handle, they did learn to sin . As one student de- scribes the experience, We learned to get along with each other. Fourth period chorus repre- sented a more widespread group of students - from freshmen all the way up to seniors! Having been organ- ized longer, they studied music in greater depth. A choral workshop at Guilford College gave them further in- sights to the world of music. Both classes partici ated in the Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Spring Assembly Pro- grams, not to mention the Graduation Ceremony. With Mrs. Hawks at our side, maybe within a few years, our choral department will be rated Number One. . f-,.,- f F ,'-'- . --' if - -f-', Montgomery Fourth period chorus, First row.'

In the biol- ogy, chemistry, physics, and p ysical science classes, the students attempted such activ- ities as compiling leaf note- books, writing term papers, making Science Fair projects, and enduring impossible tests. These activities involved the students' knowledge of the slide rule, the microscope, and dissecting kits. By dissecting worms and squids and tramping through the woods after bugs, distilling water, and decomposing cop- per sulfate, the Science De- partment tried to familiarize students with the physical world around them. This laboratory work greatly help- ed the students to see in realit what the textbooks hadl merely with drawings, tried to show.
