Dance Band One of the most popular organizations in the school is the Northwest Rangers Dance Band com- posed of seventeen boys from grades nine to twelve. In our school the band provided music for the Harvest Ball, for the class plays, and various assemblies. Its out-of-school activities include an alumni party at Benton High School, a prom at Nescopeck High School, a banquet at Hotel Ster- ling, and various dances in Berwick and surround- ing areas. The activity which provided the greatest thrill for the members of the dance band was its ap- pearance on the televised Ted Mack Amateur Show. This necessitated two trips to New York City-one for an audition and the other for the show. With its clever arrangement of '4Little Brown Jug, the dance band received top honors for scoring with the studio audience and also a prize of 53100. gf . , . Q . ,i K gg i K lnll i 1?
