(Band The Arlington High School Band has had an eventful and successful year under the baton of Mr. Paul Fosso, who took over the leadership last June and July when the band played for the Timber Bowl Celebration in Darrington and for the Fourth of July Parade. During the fall the band played for all the local football games and spring sport activities. Two big concerts were given this year together with our new high school chorus, the Christmas Concert given on December 19, 1946, and the spring concert in May, 1947. The band also contributed liberally to local club programs with solos and ensembles. When the end of the year was here the band members felt a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment. 24
