The band featured a lot of good old Dix- ieland numbers at football and basketball games through the year. The late fall concert was snowed out and finally performed in January. We had an exchange concert with Norwood-Young America playing our late fall program. The cornet section will never forget Procession of the Nobles by Rimsky Korsakoff.

Shortly after our spring concert, the band played the some program at Chaska, and then went on a picnic at Shakopee, where awards were given. The band was improved this year from several stand- points, according to Mr. Snow. The smaller size has helped the band sound cleaner and more articulate. The band has a smoother and more fluid sound as well. Of course the ditticulty ot the literature we played this year is at its highest point since the bands inception.
