Since its organization six years ago the Boys' Band has progressed so rapidly that it now ranks among the best of the state. Last year, because of the interest shown in the bands by civic organizations of Hammond, the Boys' and Girls' Bands were pro- vided with new uniforms. This year, because of the success of the concert and back- ing given them, the boys will enter the county, state and national contests not to be handicapped by the lack of proper instrumentation, and with this advantage, it seems nothing should stop them from taking honors. The band is always ready with 'lpeppyu music at auditorium sessions, pep meet- ings and basketball and football games. VVC really owe a lot to these cheerful workers who play so faithfully at all school activities. The soloists this year are: Frank lfressy, oboeg Rhinehart Flster, marimbaphone, and lllarion Pierce, bassoon. To the public of Hammond and to the excellent directo1's, Nlr. Lesinsky and llr. Diercks, the Boys' Band owes much of its success. ' . Tfwenty-iw

Dressed in their purple Capes, cadet hats and white dresses, the Girls' Band, led by Leila Hudson, their drum major, makes an attractive picture in the student parades. Not only is the Girls, Band unsurpassable in appearance but also in their ability to play. For two consecutive years they have won the county contest, and it is our hope that they not only win that cup again, but will go to the state contest. The Girls' Band appears in concert with the Boys' Band each year. Miss Mary' VVright, a talented tuba player, is the soloist. Each year the band, because of its popularity, increases in size and makes real progress. Let's go, girls, and make it even bigger and better! Yrfivgniy-four Y

Orchestra Direfftorx-Nlr. Lesinsky and lylr. Diercks. -lust close your eyes and drift away into the land of music. Can you hear the sweet strains of an orchestra playing The Fifth Symphony and Haydn's Sympanie lwilitaireu? One might think that it were the New York Symphony Orchestra, but if you open your eyes you would be surprised to see before you a large group of your very own friends. The Hammond High School Orchestra was organized in 1920. During the first year there were only ten members, but that year noted an important step in the history of our school, and now it has advanced so that it has reached the pinnacle of success, winning the county and state contests. This year they hope to win national honors. In 1925 the orchestra gave its first concert, and since then it has been an annual affair, much heralded and enjoyed by all music lovers. The soloists this year are: Wariier Blackmun, cellist, and Mo1'ris VVaxman, violinist. Under the direction of hir. Lesinsky and llflr. Diercks the orchestra plays for auditorium sessions, school plays and entertainments and we really think that we have the greatest school orchestra in the country. Fuenly six
