czybre flfed Each year as our summer vacation is iust about to come to an end, our major- ettes begin to shine their batons for another exciting football season. These am- bitious gals held evening practices with Mr. Dundor, an experienced baton twirler, a month before school began. They were taught a modulation of routines and aimed to perfect them. Finally our football season began and our strutting ma- iorettes led the Hurst High School marching band down the football field. Their entrance brings forth a tremendous applause from those seated in the grand- stands. A breath-taking feat during the season was a baton twirling act, with the use of blazing fire batons. At all football games, in all kinds of weather, our prancing maiorettes always show their extraordinary talent.

The spirited Hurst High School Band com- posed of approximately ninety-six members, marched in ranks and presented an excellent per- formance at each and every game. Dressed in brilliant scarlet and white uniforms, they were an organization Hurst could well be proud of. To all a finishing touch of perfection, were ten prancing maiorettes and a very capable drum maior. The inspiration of this organization showed spectators and students alike that they were truly behind the team, win or lose! ln No- vember of '52, the Hurst Band lost their good friend and director, Mr. Ronald Shurie. But in President .,..,.. ,...... . Vice President ...,,. Secretary .. December of the same year, the position was very ably filled by Mr. Avampato. This year, Hurst was represented in regional, state, and dis- trict band conventions. A banquet is held an- nually for the members of the band, at which time awards are presented to the senior girl and senior boy who contributed their all in the devel- opment of a better organization during their four years of membership in the band.
