Mitchell High was very proud of its high school band for the entertainment which it furnished at games. The band played for seven of the eight home basketball games and two of three home football games. Sioux Falls and Madison were the extent of the band's performance at out-of-town games. To achieve a more experienced band in future years, individual instruction was given in the grade schools and Junior High by the director, Mr. Harold Hamaker. A grade school band was organized in the latter part of the year. Members of the Junior High band who had the proper qualifications were also in the Senior High band. The band officers were: Herbert Wright, president, Pam Weller, vice-president, Daune Gall, secretary-treasurer, and Carola Koehn, librarian. In April the band entered the regional music contest, which was held in Mitchell at the Corn Palace. Early in May they participated in the annual Living Day Spring Festi- val, which is sponsored by the Mitchell City Band.
