With football comes the band, which was credited with fine performances and exhibitions during the season and throughout the year. Early in the season the or- ganization was fortunate in securing uniforms which was possible in part by a dona- tion of the Parent-Teacher Association. Little Harvey Fahrenthold, the band mascot, strutting at the head of the band, was a pleasing sight and often the “show” of the group. Much of the credit goes to Mr. Tampke whose able directorship marked the noted improvement.
