ll Band director gets dedication How do you measure spirit, concern, or dedication? Maybe it can't be done, but there are some people whose involvement in ideas and activities mark them as special. Arlen R. Saylor is one of those persons. Mr. Saylor's work with our band is well known. Under his supervision, we have won local and national recognition. He has taken Boyertown bands to Texas, Washington, Florida, and Romania. Yet he still has room in his schedule for outside activities. He formed his own band ifn l96O, recognized by the American Federation of Musicians as one of the top twelve bands in the nation. He was director of the Philadelphia Eagles' Sound of Brass and is now entertainment supervisor of the Eagles' games in Veteran's Stadium. In the past, he served as president of The Pennsylvania Band Masters and The Boyertown Area Education Association. No wonder the Boyertown community voted him Man of the Year in l973! What is more important to us, however, is his talent for making us realize that we can be good, too. For that energy, for that push he gave us, we dedicate the l976 BEAR to Arlen R. Saylor.
