The New Oxford High School Band was organized in 1932 with a personnel of twenty-four members with Paul A. Hamer as director The band was increased in membership and the present band has fifty-six members. The band is an extra-curri- cular activity and all the members belong by their own choice The instrumentation of our band has improved, too, so that now we can satisfy every part of the musical compositions. Some of the rarer instruments of the band are the two oboes, the bass and alto clarinets and the bassoon. Since 1933 the band has been participating in the Pennsylvania Forensic and Music League Contests, this being the 10th consecutive year. In these 10 years it has won the County Contest every year or else there was no competition which auto- matically made the band the representative of the county. Out of ten District Con- tests, the New Oxford High School Band was declared the winner seven tire3, having won in 34, '36, '37, '39, f40, '41, and 42. The band par- ticipated in the State Contests the years mentioned a- bove and won a state contest four times out of six en- tries. The State record above does not include this year1s record because this article was written before the results were known. In 1936 the band participated in the National Contest held in Cleveland, Ohio where they spent three days. The band was placed in Division III which represents a good performance. Again, in May 1941, the band participated in the National School Music Competition-Festival held at At- lantic City. The Judges placed the band in Division I , which represents the best conceivable performance for the event and the class of participants being Judged were worthy of being recognized as a first place winner. -28- Dr George Howard, Guest Conductor Mr Paul Earner
