Fairbury High is justly proud of its band, for no finer looking nor snappier marching band is to be found in the state. Early in the fall a campaign was started for the purchase of new uniforms. The result was that on Armistice day the band participated in the downtown . parade and drilled at the football game where they drew Ahs of admiration from the crowd. From the first football game of the season to the Hnal one with Jackson, the band entertained the crowds at half time and every occasion found some new formation added to the already fancy repertoire of tricks. Lincoln newspapers were high in their praise of the bands appearance at the Jackson game. Playing no small part in the fancy front displayed were Helen Raney, drum major, Corrine Raschke, Dorothy Dodd, and Patricia Young, twirlers, lPage Fiftyffoufrl
