The drum major who struts at the head of the band wielding a baton posed for us. Marching along toegther down the Avenue of Flagsn up to the Court of States each member proved that he really could keep in step. Middle: They bade farewll to the Fair and waited for a homeward-bound bus. The bass section and the drummers were banded together. Two assistant drum majors were added to keep the attention of the band up in front. Bottom: The band an parade marched down the streets of St. Joseph, Michigan, where no flags were flying. Another wait-this time the group anticipated a four-hour boat ride. 22

Comlllcllfvlllvlll Here is Vernon, Pryor to a Hshing expedition. One push and this would be a beau- tiful picture, unmarred by anything but the rippling sea in the background. A dignified senior in dignihed garb. Doesn't he look as if he were suppress- ing an undignified chuckle? Gig Gingham Iidward looks extremely interested doesn't he? Is it the girl or the Gingham Ball program? Wrxnder whois holding Millie's hands. Bet she's blushing something awful! A charming couple, but donlt be misled, Mr. and Mrs. isn't the name.

fill tht? B631 illld 0 Hy Frunlf Laurie At 4:30 on june 22, the tired but happy band members returned home from a most inspiring and instructive trip to Chicago. The previous Sunday they were taken in school buses to Duluth to catch a night train for their destination. The University of Chicago proved to be a very comfortable and cozy place for them to stay. On the iirst day there, the band paraded down the Avenue of Flagsn to the Court of States where a concert was presented. The rest of the day was spent in seeing the fair. Next morning, the happy fifty-five members, along with Mr. and Mrs. H. O. Steffen, em- barked on the Roosevelt steamer enroute to St. joseph, Michigan. A delightful con- cert was presented on the boat going over and coming back. Wlaile in St. Joseph the band led the Standard Oil parade. The next day was Thursday, and as it was their last day in the city it was spent in shopping and in sight-seeing. That night the troupe from Hibbing left and was sorry to see the last twinkling lights of the great city disappear. On Parade! The band members made their first appearance in their smart new blue and white uniforms at the Hibbing- Chisholm basketball game. At the school they played for all the basketball games, football games, and pep meetings. During the year trips were made to Ironwood, Michigan, Eveleth, Luna Lake, Duluth, and many other points. Purely a voluntary or- ganization, the band has developed to such an extent that Director H. O. Steffen has received many invitations requesting it to play at festivals, camps, broadcasts, and de- dications of all sorts. Feature numbers of the year were played by many of the members themselves, and also by local artists. The Brooklyn and North Hibbing P. T. A. choruses were fea- tured on a program. Miss Mae David and Mrs. Alice Simson appeared with the chorus and were also on a program with the band. In reward for the bandls splendid coopera- tion during the year, a trip to Winimipeg is being planned. A Standing: Nl. ban, l.. XY'illi.uns, ll. Nelson, ll. bonus, Nl, XVelleins. l'.
