In the past few years the band has broken several records and won more medals than any other high band in the nation. This year the band made a very enjoyable trip to the Midwest Band Masters Clinic in Chicago. Far from home, with so much competition, and before the most critical audience there is, the band still gave an out- standing performance. Even after these accomplish- ments the band is still working hard to achieve an even higher standard. 86 DON DAVIS Band Director MAJORETTES: Munnie Rasberry, Drum Majorette; Nancy Lee, Carole Shannon.

A crowd of over 4,500 watched our stubborn defense and de- termined offense completely outplay the Mustangs ending with a score of 26-0.
