THE BAND MARCIIES ON XVith the tramping of feet and the beating of drums, the THS Band marched off with many honors for another successful season. Mr. A. Ariel Cross, the conductor of this outstanding organization, had another very profitable year. Wfith the new drum major, james Owens, the band was really a snappy look- ing unit with a total of 418 members plus the color guard. The musicians successfullly demonstrated their abilities between the halves of every home football game. A special function of the band was its participation in the Centennial celebrations. During the sum- mer the band performed at Iowa City, Wziterloo, and Toledo, receiving a first division rating at all three places. They also went on two tours advertising Tama's Fall Festival. Climaxing these activities was their participation in the State Marching Band Contest at Waverly. They received a second division rating. Mr. Cross introduced a new art in band this year-that of flag twirling. Jeannette Tesar represented us in that division in contest and received a second division rating. Evelyn Kupka also entered the baton twirling division. Following these eventful performances, the season came to a close. For the seniors it was the last marching season, for the underclassmen the job goes on to make each season a little better than the last. Page Tu wztj-.tix -
