Jefferson High School - J Yearbook (Jefferson, WI)

Page 33 text:

Band Joined By Freshman Class Band was on the move. Band gave this impression through a rigorous schedule that began in September and ended in June. For example, only a week and a half after school began, the band played at a varsity football game, Band Day at the University of Wisconsin in Madison football game, and the Gemuetlichkeit parade in Jefferson. For the freshmen, halftime and pregame shows were a new experience. This was the first year that freshmen marched the shows with the other classes. Directed by Mr. Hartwig, Mr. Fisher, and Mr. Fritsch, band members set aside fourth hour every day in order to practice in the vacated faculty parking lot. At times students suffered cold fingers and freezing feet in order to prepare for concerts. The band put on three concerts during the year: one at Christmas, one midwinter, and the last one during the spring. They also played at District Festival during May in Edgerton. This was the second year as a class for members of Jazz Ensemble. Twenty musicians comprised this troup, directed by Mr. Hartwig. Besides playing at concerts, Jazz Ensemble also entertained at the State School Board Convention held in January at the Pfister Hotel in Milwaukee. PEP BAND. (Top) ROW 1: S. Behnke. V. Fischer. J.
