The two soloists for the band were Leo Schmidt and Dick Larsen. Doris Lang, Emil Roy, Bob Olsen, lackie Dunker, and Dick Larsen were chosen to represent the Fremont band in the elev- enth annual clinic, held in Lincoln, No- lt there was any music group of which MRRGRRET FHYE HEFLEY wasn't a participant, the reason did not lie in the lack of talent. In the Band K2, 3, 41 her instrument was drums. In Dance Band KZ, 3, 41 she was mater of the keys, in orchestra it was string bass, while both voice and piano were advantageous to her in R Cappella Choir K41. Margar-et Faye did not confine herself to music alone, for she joined Y-Teens KZ, 3, 41, Dramatics K41 and Pep Club KZ, 3, 41. Flfter a year at Midland College, she will finish in the Iulliard School of Music. IOYCE E. NELSON, a Midland prospect, was a typical high school student who showed enthusiasm and pride in a variety of organ- izations. Y-Teens KZ, 31, Student Librarian K41, Student Council K31, Band KZ, 3, 41, Rustler Typist K41, and Pep Club KZ, 31 records verify the stat-ement. Overcoming his shyness, ROBERT GEORGE OLSEN was elected vice-president KZ1, of Hi-Y K3, 41, president of Student Council K41, and captain of Band K41. H trumpet protege, Bob rated a superior in the National Music Contest when in the eighth grade.

With mathematics and science majors, hum- orous IHCK TOOLEY plans to attend Colorado Hefley Nelson Olsen Reed Page 20 vember 21-Z3. Hfter two and one-halt days of rehearsals, the clinic band was prepared to play in the final concert. Mr. Harold Bachman, of the Chicago band, was guest conductor. The six selections were March, Trombone King by King, Gulmant's Choral March and Fugue, Minerva Overture, composed by the guest conductor of the clinic orchestra, De Rubertis, Bacto's Prelude and Chorus from Mefistofelef' Long's Lincoln Lyric Overture, and Sousa's march, The Gla- diator. The thrill and experience of bee ing a member of such a band was not temporary for each participant took back new knowledge to be used by their own organizations. I Then of course there was the more serious aspect ot the band. Every mem- Blending their tones, the cornet sextet, Bob Olsen. Ted Schmidt, Syvia Krasne, Bob Shaw, Hlan Crandall, and Bob Petersen, blew circles around other high school competition. The com- bination appeared before several civic affairs. U. Having sports and music interests, lack participated in Track KZ1, Reserve Football K3, 41, Golf K3, 41, Intramural KZ, 31, and Band KZ, 3, 41.

How it was discovered that a member was celebrating his birth was always a mystery. The procedure in carrying out the greeting differed depending on whether it was to be in honor of a girl or boy. For a girl the playing and sing- ing of Happy Birthday sufficedg for a boy it was a much larger celebration. His buddies, after finding a cello paddle or any small loose two by four, congratu- lated the honored one with one gentle tap for each of his growing years, When the first semester ended and newcomers were to be admitted, it was decided that they should have an initiation, just a small initiation. The only requirement was becoming a personal slave for a week to all the officers. To carry a flute and tuba was found to be comparatively simple after a few attempts. With the enthusiasm and intense inter- est shown by junior high and grade school students it is quite apparent that the band will maintain their high stand- ards omong high school bands for years to come. Even if they weren't wearing the chevrons. one would have little difficulty in classifying this group. Pictured. leit to right. lirst row. they are: Shir Lee Boggs. Iackie Dunker. Claudine Hoppel.
