Agricultural Iudging Contest at North Platte A group of seventeen boys and Mr. Vose made their annual pilgrimage to North Platte to participate in the state high school judging contest April 9 and 10. Although our teams did not bring home as many ribbons as usual, the boys did very well considering that the competition was the keenest it has ever been. The following boys brought home honors. Dan Gengenbach and Drexel Kuskie, first place in grain grading: Elmer Cooper, brst in the babcock test: jerry Sejkora, second in woodworking: Robert Peterson, fourth individual in dairy products: and a team composed of Paul Kemling, Glenn Stevens, and Robert Peterson placed fourth in dairy products. Mr. Vose has maintained one of the outstanding agriculture departments of the state and considering that there were twenty-three towns competing, we feel that the winning of two first places in the ten events is something to be proud of.

S +P. C. H. BAND These pictures represent the P. C. H. S. Band and Orchestra. There are ap- proximately ninety-five members in these two organizations with Mr. Ptacek as the instructor. These organizations participated in the District Music Contest and each received a rating of good. Many members of the band will think back with a twinkle in their eyes at the razzing racket that old P. C. H. S. made on the football field when they got pepped up. Rah! Rah! These organizations with the Boys and Girls Glee Clubs gave two musicals during the year for financing the music department. One of these was given at the Grant Theater and free to the public. The organization also sponsored a show for the purpose of buying music racks for the band and orchestra. ORCHESTRA l 9 3 of eeeeeeeee eeee e be
