Our Buml on the March! Sedan! Zend The concert band, dignified as it was during the Christmas program, certainly wasn't so at practice, but under Mr. Shiplett's direction, it always gave outstanding performances. The band also took part in the County Music Festival in February and in March sent more stu- dents to the district music contest than it had ever sent before. Four entries brought home four Superior State Finals ratings. 51.1--I Bmul Director, Mr. Shiplett. 'l'I'0Illb0ll0S2 Boh Fifi-li. Don- na Swcncy, Bcrnard Sli'- Cancc, Lawrence lloylc.
