THE BREEZE 31 BAND The Milo Youth Band has enjoyed a very successful year. They now have very attractive uniforms which they wore at the Eastern Maine Music Festival last spring. Six of the band members had the privilege of getting in the two hundred piece Composite Band led by Paul Lavalle at the Brewer Festival. , The members were all sorry when their leader, Mr. Gricius, left them last spring. Mr. MacNamara took over the band through the summer and he was also well liked. The band went to his home town, Millinocket, for an outing and concert when he finished his job as band leader. Now the new music supervisor, Mr. Snow, is leading the band with much suc- cess. The membership has increased to nearly twenty-five and badly needed in- strumentation will soon improve the band since there are several young musicians now studying. BAND First Row: R. Ford, W. Folsum, C. Larrabee, Mr. Snow, J. Curran, J. Curran, N. Sturtevant. Second Row: M. Tibbetts, L. Tibbetts, B. Heath, D. Treworgy, K. Dority, J. Sherborne, J. Sherborne. Third Row: D. Hussey, G. Wibberlv, C. Lewis, J. Ricker, VV. Gross, D. Huff. ORCHESTRA The high school orchestra has made a great deal of improvements this year, and has learned several new pieces which were introduced to them by their director, Mr. Snow. Again this year the orchestra lacked stringed instruments, but hope that there will be enough interest in the orches- tra and band next year to buy the needed instruments. The orchestra has been greatly appreciated at various programs during the school year. ORCHESTRA First Row: R. Ford, L. Tibbetts, B. Carver, Mr. Snow, B. Heath. M, Tibbetts, W. Folsom. Second Row: D.
