This year's Pep Band encountered a slight problem with the Title IX Program which stated that they had to play lor an equal number of boys and girls events. Normally, the band only played for 3 or 4 of the girls' basketball games because the members were busy with Marching Band. When boys' basketball started, Marching Band was over and they were free to play at most games. Title IX sited that this was discriminatory and Band Director John Combs had to sign a contract saying that he would play for 5 girls basketball games, 5 boys basketball games, 4 football games and 2 other events of his choice. Many fans were disappointed during the boy's basketball season when there was no Pep Band at home games. According to jazz director John Combs. Hellgate s jazz band was considerably younger this year than in past years. Although they were inexperienced, a couple of months of hard practice turned this around and things began to hap pen. This year they participated in the University of Mon- tana Jazz Festival and District Music Festival plus perform- ing in numerous concerts. One of Combs' goals for next year is to form a second jazz band whose purpose would be to give younger musi- cians some experience before going into the Jazz I program. Activities 21
