The band, under the leadership of Mr. Winch, has made such a good record in the past year that it has been recognised by the Music War Council of America, on the basis of bands playing for patriotic events and for 'bond concerts The 'bond concerts' were the original idea of our able director, Mr. Samuel R. Winch. The presentation of the award to the band for it's 'music for victory' activities, during the Dec. 7th, 1944 'bond concert', marked the highpoint of our band year. The band also marched for the homecoming celebration and manuevered during the halves of the homecoming game. In the bag of tricks were included the formation of several letters, including a 'D' in honor of Durand, the opposing team, and an 'A' in honor of the home team. All through the football and basketball season the Pep Band made a practice of playing both at pep meetings and at all home games. It made a very good record throughout and seemed to be appreciated by the audience. The last formal concert of the band was held March 22, 1945. There was a good crowd and the program was enjoyed by all. A successful informal concert was given down town in the band stand a week before school was dismissed. This event ended the band concerts for this year. Among other activities, the band played for the Chicken Clinic on March lO, 1945. The final band event of the year will be the ceremonies on Memorial Day. Due to the war, only a small tournament will be held. Bands in the radius of 25 miles will be able to compete. is 9
