NACMS Rand Re-out fitted Each band member was measured for size. Farewell to our old uniforms. This year, 1964, will be remembered by all NACHS band members as the year in which they acquired long-awaited new uniforms. They replaced the old uniforms which were bought in 1938, 26 years ago. A representative from De Moulin Brothers of Greenville, Illinois, measured each band member early in the school year. Later they turned in their old uniforms. At a banquet given by the Commercial Club, the general public eagerly waited. A trumpet fanfare announced the unveiling of the new uniforms and of the concert Which followed. This event marked one of the stepping stones in the history of the NACHS band. Aren't our new uniforms just great?
