Band The Millington High School Band has progressed well during the season 1939-1940, although there has been a slight decrease in member- ship. Under the competent direction of Mr. Edmund Irwin, our instructor, the band has made several appearances which have received much favor- able comment. They appeared in uniform at every football game on the Alumni Field and were present at all the basketball meets. During the basketball season, the band was divided into an A group and a B group, each taking its turn to play at the games. At various occasions certain members were selected to play at community functions.
