M JORETTES Connie Dymoke Loraine Griffin Jeanette Nelson Evelyn Parton l The Senior Band of New Plymouth High School started the year off with a bang by playing at the Football Jamboree held the first part of September in Parma. Then followed a very successful season with the band marching and playing during the half- times of several of the home games. The maiorettes also performed for these games accompanied by the band. With football season out of the way, the pep band, comprised of the senior band members, were with the basketball boys during every home game and also played for the majorettes when they had the floor during the half-times. When the District Tournament came around, the band jour- neyed to Fruitland where they played two nights. After the District Championship was won and our boys went to the State Tournament at Lewiston, the pep band was determined to follow. After raising sufficient funds, they left in cars for Lewiston, and played for two night games. May ll the S.R.V. Music Clinic was held in Emmett. This was attended by the band where they learned much during sectional rehearsals. Along came the Music Festival held in Caldwell on April l2-l3-l4. The ratings received were 3 in concert playing and 3 in sight-reading. A spring Concert combined with the Mixed Chorus and Speech Play was held on May TO. To climax a very successful year the band played and marched at the Annual Fruitland Spring Fair on May ll.
