The Marching Band consisted at the combined Symphonic and Concert Bands. Under the direction of Mr. Blackley and Drum Maior Scott Nyquist, the Marching Band performed at all ot the home football games. These half-time shows were executed coniointly with the Rhythmettes.

Wrong footl These and many others commands were heard every fifth hour while Miss Hallett's Rhythmettes practiced their routines for the numerous performances throughout the i964-i965 school year. Football half-times were highlighted by the precision twirling and marching of twelve twirlers and twenty-four pom-pom girls in each show.
