During the football and basketball season. the band has greatly added to the enjoyment of the sport fans by its snappy appearance and peppy music.

The seniors leaving this year are Ivan Benderwald, Lois Coleman, Eunice DuRand, Ilene Fuller, Doris Gee, Kenneth Isaak, and Inga Martin. There are 59 members in the combined bands.

Johnson played trombone in the band and the high school orchestra. A very talented player, he took music seriously and would have been a success in the musical world. It is with regret that we have to continue our activities with- out him. As in the past several years the efforts of the band culminated in the annual band festival which was this year held at LaMoure. Mr. J. A. Holvik had again been invited as guest conductor. The follow- ing program was presented : Presentation of Colors LaMoure Scouts America Panella March of the Champions Huffer American Youth Overture Pettee Chapel Shrine — Reverie Leoni March of Youth Olivadoti Cheerio — March Goldman Intermission Officer of the Day Hall Do nkey Serenade Friml Trombones on Parade Taylor Skaters ' Waltz Chenette United We Stand Hayes Retirement of Colors Boy Scouts All band members regret that Mr. Ackert will not continue to direct the E. H. S. band next year. He does not plan to return as a teacher because he expects to be drafted or he will enter some type of defense work.

High School Band MUSIC CHORAL MUSIC The mixed chorus and glee clubs carried forward in both senior and junior high school with increased appreciation of this fine art. The boys and girls glee clubs were organized in the fall. The mixed chorus was organized at the beginning of the second semester. Under the capable direction of Miss Martha Buck, we were able to put on programs for various occa- sions. The boys and girls glee clubs combined and separate have given several programs throughout the year. At Christmas the glee clubs and mixed chorus together with the upper and intermediate grade choruses presented a program of Christmas music. Instead of the usual reading of the scrip- ture, a group of girls presented a choral reading of the Christmas Story. Following are the numbers: 0 Come All Ye Faithful Brass Choir and Chorus Silent Night All The Christmas Story .

Clarence Neumann, Boyd Blumer, Jack Aberle, Ivan Banderwald, Milton Haims, Alvin Marvick, Robert McMillan, Reuben Roehl, LaVerne Wedell, Benny Graham, Erwin Sand, and Victor Strand were the returning lettermen. Coach had to work with a light backfield, but a fairly heavy line all having some experience. The season ' s summary. Ellendale... 0 Enderlin 36 Ellendale 9 Aberdeen 7 Ellendale.. 8 Oakes 0 Ellendale 14 LaMoure 14 Ellendale 0 E gelev 0 Ellendale 12 Lisbon 0 The team had a successful year, although they did lose their opening game. The team then came back and did not lose a game for the remainder of the season. This just goes to show what E. H. S. really can do when there is real determination. The Ellendale-Oakes game was the thriller of the season, as Oakes had planned on an easy victory. Ellendale proceeded to outplay their opponents, hold- ing them scoreless and scoring eight points for themselves. The banquet given by the mothers was enjoyed by the whole squad. The senior lettermen were: Reuben Roehl, Clarence Neumann, Boyd Blumer, Milton Harms, Robert McMillan, Alvin Marvick, Luverne Wedell Ivan Benderwald, Jack Aberle, Ralph Grif- fin, Melvin Kuch, and Kenneth Isaak, student man- ager ; juniors: Benny Graham, Randall Graham, Vic- tor Strand, Erwin Sands, Raymond Aberle, and Eddie Kuch. Clarence Neumann was elected Honor Athlete for 1941, and received a gold football provided by Coach 0. K. Ehlers and E. C. Ingvalson. Milton Harms was elected Honorary Captain for the 1941 season. BASKETBALL Five lettermen reported for practice together with a large squad of boys with some experience. The lettermen : Clarence Neumann, Boyd Blumer, Jack Aberle, LaVern Boyle, and Benny Graham. These boys and Charles Fleming, Eddie Kuch, Mel- vin Kuch, and Ernest King received letters this year. The season on the whole was not very success- ful although the team was not as weak as it might appear. For example E. H. S. defeated both teams that won in our sub-district and the district tourna- ments. Our team learned how to lose and take it with a grin. Next year Coach Ehlers should have a more experienced squad, and the 1942 team will be looking forward to their success.
