Mrs. Bradbury was the choir instructor. Choir had done many things including anything from going to music contests to goof- ing off. There were two music con- tests held at Southwestern college where the choir got a two rating at both. Oxfordians had a good year also. They started it out by going to Coffey- ville to learn new songs and dance steps. At the contests the Oxfordians received a one at league, and a two at state. Later in the year both choir and Ox- fordians sang at the ice cream social. All in all, it was a good year.

Musicians And Singers At Work by Sandy Farha Contests, programs, and halftime entertainment describe a few of the activities that the band participated in .... from working with Udall to put on a 2 school halftime show to standing on a corner in the cold of December to play Christmas carols for Santa. The band was not only very active but also talented. It’s hard when you lose good Seniors but we also gained fresh talent with the new freshmen. Mr. Banks is a very good band director and the stu- dents enjoy band so much more thanks to him and his original, fun ideas. Band received 3 I ratings at state contest this year. The band keeps the school moving in harmony so to speak. Keep up the great work gang! i. . 24 This page sponsored by Bodkin’s Motors Winfield, KS
