Close to a hundred people are standing rigid at attention. A command is sounded, Forward - march, forward - marchll' No, this wasn't the Bataan death march, but another summer band rehearsal. As the students marched across the practice field, drum majors Gary Osborn and Julie Brown screamed commands that caused for- mations to turn, flip, mark-time, and finally, the long awaited halt. But the band did not go unrewarded for their efforts. While marching proudly in their new corps style uniforms, the band earned a first division rating in UIL marching competition. The band also competed in the Cleburne Invita- tional Marching Contest receiving a first division rating. In individual com- petition, the flag corps, sponsored by Miss Miriam Duell and led by Captain Becky Smith and Lieutenant Tammy Malone, also received a first division rating. Band was not composed solely of marching. After football season, the band was divided into two groups - BAND symphonic and concert. After working on prepared UIL music, the sym- phonic band made a one, but a two in sightreading. Ask any band member what the highlight of the year was for them, and he or she would more than likely reply, The trip to Durangof, Band members traveled to Albu- querque by plane, and to Durango, Colorado, via busses. The band stayed at the Tamarron Inn, a luxury ski resort. Not only did the band manage to have a great deal of fun snowtubing and sightseeing, they also placed well in the Durango Fine Arts Festival. Symphonic band earned straight divi- sion one ratings and the best in class' award. Concert band, conducted by Mr. Greg Hull, also received straight divi- sion one ratings and came in second for the best in class award, beaten out only by Wichita Falls High School. The year has been super! said Director Dee Tucker, We did great in competition, and I had the most fun on the Durango trip that I've ever had on any other trip. n 9 ll- -- it gl ,ga A M

More than once the wet field kept the band on the sidelines or in the stands at half-time. ln corps style uniforms not received un- til just before the UIL marching contest, the band ends a contest performance. Winners of the Buff Friends scholarships, Bennett Howell and Scott Bills, hold the Durango trophy. BAND
