BAND The band, inspired by the superior ratings received at the Music Festival in Brewer last year, has proved to be an asset both to the community and to the school. Under the capable direction of Linwood Bowen, this unit has greatly improved and many students have been inspired to take up instruments, such as alto and French horns, which are less common but which are greatly needed to complete the instrumentation. The band played at both football and basketball games, rallies, and assemblies, thus adding a great deal of spirit and color and also furnished considerable hacking to the teams. As the TRxDEN'r goes to press, the band is preparing for the 1940 Music Festival to be held at Waterville in May, and, with the addition of newly purchased capes and hats, this organization ought to bring back top honors to the school.
