The membership numbers fifty-two with the best balance in instrumentation since the band was organized. The band contest in Davis the latter part of last year was quite an inspiration for students that like to play in band competition. Our band Won first place in Class D and E averaging more points in playing ability than any band in competition in any class. Engagements for the present year were many and are thus listed: The basketball games, rallies, Holy Ghost Celebration, and Home Coming. One of the important factors that made many of these engagements successful was the fact that the band was uniformed. This was made possible by the band members themselves and the school. Caps were purchased with band funds by the school and the students bought the remainder of the ensemble. Now that the band has really established itself, it is hoped that in another year the band will be the best and largest band in the history of the school. l 9 3 7 TWENTY-ONE

Strings must have had experience in some other organization before being allowed to register for orchestra. Brass and woodwind players are selected from the band by the instructor. The enrolled orchestra for the year numbered forty. Many programs were furnished for school engagements. Selected players played numbers for community plays. Instrumental solos were an added feature of many programs. The students capable of doing this function were George Wallace, saxophone, Bob Coe, clarinet, Kenneth Bayless, tromlboneg and Jane Grey on the piano. Other work of these soloists was to play at the Woman's Club on two occasions. An added instrument of the orchestra this year was the cello played by Elsie Reed, who studied the instrument in grammar school and has displayed talent for the time she has studied it. The orchestra has a promising future with many string players coming up from the elementary schools, always a strong encouragement for any string section of any school orchestra. . - I 9 3 7 We-e TWENTY-TWO
