Seventh grader Byrum Kelly adjusts the slide on his French hom getting it in tune, Iunior bandsmen presented half- time shows at all home games and music for junior pep rallies Wet grass and cold winds try senior bandsmen ' ho forgets being a member of the band! Marching through wet grass first period on dreary days almost did me in. Who cares about the grass , . . it's the music I love. At the first of marching season you worry about the heatg at the end you worry about the cold - it's one extreme to another. Packing horns and equipment on buses or forging through the gates of Hornet field, band members functioned as a group united with a common goal every Friday night: performing a perfect halftime show. Putting marching bandsmen to the test, Mr. Roger McLaren, direc- tor and Vivian Svestka, drum ma- jorette transformed the Pride of the Prarie into star, pinwheel, and gigantic word patterns. Adding to their long list of ap- pearances, the marching band per- formed in the Homecoming Parade and the Stuttgart Christmas Parade. Closing the season with a salute to America, they added a unique half- time touch - a multi-colored fireworks finale. Rounds of ap- plause from both stands proved re- ward enough for the long hours of practice, practice, practice.
