With 18 chaperons, bandsmen boarded bus Sept. 1 1 for six-day trip to 1967 Canadian centennial. They spent free time visiting the fair ' s international exhibits. After fair screening committee had chosen band last spring, prepa- rations for trip began with money- making projects such as car bash. With help of Band Parents Asso- ciation headed by Mr. Clarence Tap- per, they raised $6000 by car wash- es, candy sales and concerts. Nine-tune program surprised many foreign visitors. “Because foreign countries have no free music train- ing in public schools, visitors can’t believe that 80 students in one school could be so talented,” ex- plained Mr. Qualkinbush. 20
