Sound the Trumpets ,--t ng-J., 2 Representative Schwengel and Senator Martin present the Capitol flag to Mr. Lowell and the Fairfield High School Band. Mr. Dillon Lowell I 0 Sound the trumpets! ! ! This would definitely be an appropriate salute for the genial Mr. Dillon Lowell, Fairfield High School's band director extraordinary. Without fail, year after year, Mr. Lowell has turned out top flight marching bands -bands that have brought honor and rec- ognition to FHS through their consist- ently splendid performances at contests. Last summer the superiority of the March- ing Band was again proven, when at the International Lions Club Convention, it was judged as second best in competition with bands from all of the 48 states. What qualities must a band leader have to weld individuals into an organization with all the precision and finesse of a su- perb marching band? Whether it's friend- liness, a sense of humor, or just plain good-naturedness, Mr. Lowell has all of these along with the ability to inspire those with whom he works. So, sound the trumpets in salute to this jovial man with the baton who has brought honor and recognition to Fairfield High and smiles, laughter, and happiness to its students.

Directors of our Education SEATED: Tom Nollerg R. C. Normang Stewart Gaumer, president, Shan Camp- bellg Robert Austin. STANDING: William Davidson, secretary, Glenn Sherman, treasurer, W. G. Pence, superintendent. Supervising Fairiield's educational sys- tem is, in itself, no small task. Add to this the job of directing the construction of the new junior high and the result is plenty of hard work. The live men who are on the school board, after holding many extra meetings this year, know how true this statement is. Here is a group of men who think enough of their town to give valuable time to help in a highly important job-the edu- cation of Fairf1eld's youth. They are the men who have Worked so diligently With Mr. Pence to solve the problems, large . and small, that arise in the administra- tion of any educa- u ,V tional system. The beautiful new jun- ior high is concrete proof of their abil- ity. So, here is a salute to the men behind Fairf1eld's educational scene, the school board. Two years ago when it became evident that Fairf1eld's facilities for elementary education were becoming inadequate the citizens of Fairfield approved a S600,000 bond issue for the expansion of these fa- cilities. lt was decided that a combina- tion grade and junior high building would best solve the problem. By last Christmas this ultra-modern building was completed and ready for use by the grades. Beauti- ful both inside and out with pleasingly decorated, well-lighted rooms, the new junior high will be an asset to the com- munity for many years to come.
