Con- We J t vention in Miami, Florida, in August. They were described as having marched with well drilled precision and were shown in two cuts in the leading morning newspaper. Returning from Miami, they paraded at Ccala, Florida. lt will be a long time before that trip is tor- gotten. There are sixty members and eight major- ettes directed by their popular leader, George Bootsie Noonan. With their snappy drum beat and greatly improved music, they pa- raded at all ten ot our lootball games. ln addition to these performances the band Georqe Bootsie Noonan-Director participgted in Several Trade Day parades' an Armistice Day parade, and Christmas pa- rades in Bay Minette and Foley.
