.Um Zami Whenever our teams played a home game, our band was always there rendering forth with our school songs. They played for all the pep assemblies too. A ioyful new addition to the band this year, much appreciated by the student body, was arrangements of the popular song hits of the day. Ninety-eight strong, the band, under the direction of Mr. Vickers, elected their officers at the beginning of the year. They are: Ron Pederson, president, John Teppen, vice president, Andrea Hanson, secretary, and'Don Phillips, treasurer. .5 Q' Our pep band adds spirit to football games Emu! Row 1: C. Litman, R.

Dressed in our good old colors of Red 'n Grey, it's easy to spot our band wherever they are performing. Among their seventy-five public appearances this year, playing for Open House, American Education Week and the All-School Programs, their annual Spring Concert, the Music Festival, and the Scottish Rite head the list. And, of course, we can't pass up their marching-the Fall Festival, Armistice Day, U.M.D. Homecoming, and Memorial Day parades claimed the honor of having East's band. Marching along together.

Our iunior high basketball games were really pepped up when the Ninth Grade Band was there rendering some good old Sousa selections. Dressed in their standard uniforms ot red letter sweaters, grey ties, and grey slacks, the members are at their last step before they become a part of the Senior High Band. The hard working Eighth Grade Band, under Mr. Tainio, had an interesting year. They played in the junior high band concert and in the annual Spring Music Festival. Our band was easily spotted in their uniforms of white slacks, red letter sweaters, and white shirts during the past year. From complete novices in the tall to practically pros in the spring, emerge our Seventh Grade Band. With Mr. Tainio as their director, they played in the Seventh Grade Music Festival, the iunior high band concert, and the Spring Music Festival. For their uniforms, our seventh graders were decked out all in white - white slacks and white shirts. 22
