Concerning this concert, Jerry stated, “The Coachmen’s approach to a number is, we think, differ ent from any other group. We try to look at a song as if we were the audience, and try to arrange the songs to sound like our audience would like to hear them. But don’t take us wrong, we don’t commercialize our mu sic. We think that folk music has a great deal to say to people and we try to communicate these ideas to the audience through singing.” Wanderlust “Ha, Ha, my dear old man,” quipp^ Yoke. “Please, don’t quote me, I beg of you old wreitch«l mdsantrope,” returned Heather. “Stiog my arm,” the old man spoke back at the wretdhed mis anthrope.

C. Revision Plans Are Underway Plans to revitalize next year’s English program by means of a new study procedure, are now un derway under the direction of Mr. Walt Smith, assistant prin cipal. He conducted meetings throughout the year in which the English teachers have discussed and made proposals toward the new porgram. Dr. Campbell, of Pfeiffer College, attended one of the meetings and advised the teachers in making their plans for the program. This sequential program is evaluating the English program, and its aim is to expose the stu dent to a variety of subjects in the field of English. In the past the student was liable to be given the same kind of material all three years of high school. Now, with the introduction of this new program, the student will be given an extensive study in a different field each year, in hopes that he will be better prepared for college work. This new program should de velop in the student a new inter est for English, and thereby, in crease the standards of the Eng lish department. In the words of Mrs. Nancy Gamewell, chairman of the English Department, “This present study can be a most valuable contribution to the cor relation and advancement of our English program.” LUMBER for every need! • Paints, Building Materials, Lumber, Millwork, Builders’ Hardware • Consolidated Lumber Co.
