Concluding a most successful year numbers were sung for commencement and baccalaureate. The Chico State Band, under the direction of Paul Howard Young, has gained a great deal of experience and had a lot of fun in the many activities that have kept them busy in both fall and spring semesters. The first big job was to keep pep at all the home football games. So much interest was shown that they even followed the team to Ashland, where, in the frozen air, they put on a brilliant display of snappy marching and playing. At any request the band would play in parades or give pro- grams. Several swing programs during assembly periods were enjoyable. ji! . .la Above are pictured two of the college A Cappella Choir soloists, Carl Del- gado, tenor, and Helen Canevari, so- prano. l l Below is a group shot of the Chico l State A Cappella Choir.
