' o sweat' Band competes in playing, sight reading For the 120 students in Symphonic I and Symphonic II bands, competition was no sweat g they were ranked ninth in the state. When they went to competitions at other schools, they got very high scores for their playing and also for their sight reading. Their directors, Wayne Tympanick and Ken Hurst, feel that this has been one of the best years for the band. The band went to Boswell High School on Match l where it received good ratings from the judges. The main reason our playing has improved so much is When Mr. Tympanick conducts, everybody plays! - Band director Tympanick conducts Sym- phonic I as they prepare for the Christmas Concert. Practice makes perfect! - Alex Cristie, Elizabeth Combs and Anne Vaughn practice for the Christmas Concert. .,,.'. 1 .
