AAUSIC Pl -A The best band in the city of Nlount Vernon? YVhv it's the Davis band, under the direction of Mr. Licht. ltls the must active civic minded, too. lVhenever a war bond drive, or a P. T. A. meeting was held in Mount Vernon, one heard the drums, and other instruments, doing their best. The Band Parade and Band Concert echoed their wonders to the world, and when Dick Sagman and Abra- ham Greenbaum began to play the flute T well, it was known far and wide. The Band was behind all the football players and with them came the twirlers, who had a hard time keeping their skirts down on those windy days - their sparkling batons twirling, and, at the head of the procession, the Sonnenblick twins, executing those tricky stepsl rliVVIRLEl1S ATH CHARMS Cultural music at Davis came Lllldel' the capable direc- tion of Mr. Nielsen. Even the most unmusical of us sat up and took notice when the choir went through the strains of the Lord's Prayer at our regular assemblies. They really made 'lbeautiful music , especially at the im- pressive Christmas assembly. Stop all workl Forget all testsl - That's the cry that rang out when Mr. Nielsen's clarinets and violins began their practice twice a Week in the auditorium. During the term Rosemary DeBruyn tried to keep the eyes of the orchestra on their music as she conducted the struggling musicians. The highest point was reached however, when the graduates marched down to re- ceive their diplomas while the band played the Re-cessional at the -lune Commencement. BAND When the budget had to be fixed and the musical arrange- ments planned at the Davis mus- icals, the G. O. Music Committee stuck its thumb in and always pulled out, not a plum, but a success. llJliN'l'l l lL'A'l'l0N C'I'opJ Rode I: N. Starr, P. Pfeiffer, Son- nenbliek, Reiner, A. Leighton, M.
