Orchestra and Band We feel that considerable progress has been made in this field during the past year under the direction of Mr. R. S. Welty. The Band entered the County Band contest, and although it did not place in first division, it showed marked progress over the preceding year. It also entered three members in the soloist contest. These three recieved first div- ision honors in the county contest, and placed in second division at the district contest with competition from various schools, such as Goshen, Elkhart, Columbia City, South Bend, Fort Wayne, etc. The Band has an enrollment of 25, and the Orchestra 23. The Band is losing but three Seniors and the Orchestra four. We are hoping in future years jefferson will keep improving as they have in the past.
