Name That Tune T he Sound of Music zipped through Diane Cruger's head as she played the notes on her flute.

The Study Band worked hard all year to prepare for the Spring Concert in which they performed. We are no longer considered a begin- ning band, claimed Mr. A., But rather an intermediate group.

Going to Funk City The Lone Ranger playing tenor sax? Steve Nieves going to Funk City? That's what it looked like on October 31 when Madison's jazz band performed at the Homecoming bar- beque. The costumed band played five jazz pieces including the theme from the Pink Panther. The hard-working group did more than play at barbeques this year. Besides annual jazz concerts, the band performed in the city, county, and the dis- trict jazz festivals. In January the band played in the auditor- ium during the ASB card sales week to encourage students to buy ASB cards, expressed Mr. Artimez, the band director. All of the students worked hard to improve their music skills, continued Mr. A., which was evident by the solo per- formances given throughout the year. The jazz band is a group Madison can be proud of. Members can be seen all over campus with their matching shirts and fancy jazz caps. What spirit! Jazz Ensemble 155
