He has taken part in many activities, directing the music for all the assemblies, programs, football and basketball games, As generally happens in school life certain points worked to Mr. Williams advantage and certain ones to his disadvantage, To his advantage were the improvements in facilities of the conser- vatory. Over the summer the school had a partition taken out making the whole upstairs one big room with an office, instrument room, and practice rooms leading off from the main room. They also put in risers for the band to practice on. All the students who were in band before appreciate this very much. To the new leader's disadvantage was the starting of the year with a mere handful of last years players. The band has developed from students from junior band, grade school, and new students. The band this year played at the home football and basket- ball games and took part in the Christmas festivals. lt provided the music for the lunior play in November, and the Senior play in March. The spring schedule was a very busy one. Elma Wambold and Mary Sutton went to the Northwest District Mass Band at Everett, on March 8. April 2, there was a Spring Concert with the Glee Club. April l9, the Northwest District Band Contest was held at Renton. The Pierce County League held a meeting of all the school bands in the league at Orting to find the good and bad points of each band. On May first came the May Day festivals and, later in May, the annual trips to Edgemont and Milton Grade Schools, SEATED, lelt to right: Dale VanDersheIden, Helen Anderson, Shirley Francis, Barbara Wilson, Herman Olson, Jean Kaelin, Mary Sutton, Anton Johnson, Arnold Rivenes, Elma Wambold, Ronald Giesy, Jean Baker, Jerry Lebert, Dick Norris, Jewel leQua, Lee Davis, Bob Norris, Bill Clark, Larry Holmquist, George Myers, Jerry Downing, Bill Roberts, Frank Christoph, O'DeIl Wallace, Wally Holmauist.
