It proved to be an exciting 40 hours when 60 band mem- bers started and ended the concert with the National Anthem in the Fairfield Gymnasium on June 5, 6, and 7. Swollen and split lips, numb thumbs and sore teeth were just some of the diasasters. Half of the flutes and all of the clarinets ended with their arms wrapped up. Grogginess was felt by the band on the last morning and the only way they stayed awake was by people wash- The victors reward. After 40 hours of play and the music was repeated 37 times.

Wondering when it would finally be over, Tim Kaufman, Dan McCoy and Annette Pfiester await the final whistle. 40 tooting hours. Each band member waits anxioiasly for their 5 minute break which comes every hour. 70-sick tombones--Lots of disasters happened during the concert.
