BAND AND ORCHESTRA Mr. George Morris The Band and Orchestra have been very active in Student Body and social affairs a this semester. Our band has been a dominant factor in all city parades. It has participated in the Honor Society awards programs, played for basketball games, and at the rallies. Louie Ruffatto was head drum-major this semester, and there were 31 members in the band. Although smaller than the band, the orchestra was a very well-organized group. The two main activities of the orchestra this semester consisted of participating in the annual Spring Concert and the graduation exercises. The Band and Orchestra were under the able leadership of George Morris, well- known Richmond musician who is completing his eighteenth year of teaching at R.U. ELS.
