Ihr Ali mnuriam ON September 3, 1933, just prior to the opening of the fall term of school, one of the best loved members of the Albany High School Faculty, Professor W. T. Nicholls, was summoned to join that innumerable caravan ...... in the silent halls of death. The student body and many former pupils paid loving tribute to their beloved leader in a fitting manner at the final ceremonies, honoring one who had been such a faithful and able director. The High School Band attended the funeral in a body and rendered appropriate musical numbers. Captain Beard, leader of the O.S.C. Cadet Band, led the band on this occasion. During the ten-year p e rio d i n which Professor Nicholls directed the various musical organizations of the school, the High School Band achieved a place of prominence, not only in Albany but throughout the State. In 1931, in the State Band Contest held on the O.S.C. Campus at Corvallis, Albany High School won first place in the Class A division. The Winning of this high honor was largely attributed to the unceasing efforts of Mr. Nicholls in training the band to such a high degree of efficiency. Mr. Nicholls had studied with some of the world's greatest musicians and had played in some of America's largest bands. He possessed the rare ability of being able to play and teach any instrument in the band. Many young untrained students have become excellent musicians through the instruction and inspiration of Mr. Nicholl's efliciency and versatility in music. His memory will live on through the years in the lives of his students because of the influence he exerted in devel- oping an appreciation and understanding of music. J!-if
