Goltz, Gladen The Stage Band , a non-profit organization, has played for many of the high school dances Mr. Hanson started this group last year having only nine mem- bers at that time. The Stage Band has grown to thirteen. David Palmer and Larry Gulseth play cornets; Janis Thorbrogger, Judy Baltes and Verna Goltz play clarinets; Jean Jensen and Janis Lindquist play soprano sax; Gary Lueck on the tenor sax; Barry Wistey and Jim Goltz play trombones; Dave Lausche on the bass horn; Helen Gladen is the accompanist; with Herbie Lien on the drums. They performed at the Squaw Lake PTA in January and were invited to play at a Jaycee sponsored dance at Walker, Minnesota on February 14, 1964« There are various types of music that they play, but most of it is fast- moving. Playing in the group is indeed an honor and it enables the players to associ- ate with students in other schools.
