We The music department, under the direction of Mr. Bayne and Mr. Talbot, assisted by Mrs. Young, had another year of spectacular growth in numbers. The performing groups included over 260 students. Formal concerts in- cluded the Christmas Concert, Winter 'Popsi Concert and Spring Concert, but there were also many performances outside of school. Mt. Rainier was represented at all contests and festivals open for their participation, includ- ing the newly organized Puget Sound League Music Competitions. They also gave concerts at several Jr. High schools. With the proceeds of the 3rd annual candy sale more uniforms and equipment were purchased to dress up' the performing groups. The Concert Band, with Mr. Bayne at the baton, had another successful and performance-Hlled year. During the football season they marched Cweather permittingj and provided musical entertainment at all home games. For the Christmas concert they presented the complete Peer Gynt Suite and again sang in the massed chorus. The new year saw preparations in full swing for the February pops concert in which popular music held full sway. Springtime brought the Puget Sound League Band Contest, District Band Festival and Spring Concert. Commencement music brought the musical school year to an exciting close, but band members will practice once a week all summer and partic- ipate in several local parades. Individual honors for band members went to g Kathy Putnam - All-state Band and Ann Putnam - All-state Orchestra. Officers were Jim Hunt, president, Mickey Simpson, vice-president, Diane Martin, secretary, and Linda McClellan, treasurer. 70 Concert Band QalumOwuMwSi0 S 5 SY - vi ts 'Y'
