Upon this group depends the future of our banzl and orchestra. This organiza- tion is composed of regular members of the band as well as inexperienced members who are just learning. Under the spendid direction and leadership of Mr. Young this group has progressed rapidly and some of its members have been put into the band. This organization is undoubtedly very beneficial to the instrumental section of our musical department.

Barkley, Betty Jo Boulware, Mar- jorie Wood, Judith Burrows, Dorothy Emery, Mary Anna Graham, Mary Adaline Perry, Mildred Carroll, Howard Rosenthal, and Frances Riggle.

They are red and white capes with red military caps trimmed in white. The capes and caps were purchased for us by the P.-T. A. The band has given good support to the players at the basketball games this year and also paraded up town to advertise them. They always open and close assemblies: with a lively march or two. Some of the other places where the band played this year are: the Kiwanisr Jubilee, P.-T. A. meeting, and Mass Band at Culver-Stockton College. This year the band entered the Northeast Missouri Music Meet at Kirksville, and gave a public con- cert in Canton.
