Mrs. Palleria has guided the group in learning new routines both for marching and twirling. The girls have had lots of fun working together and twirling at the band concerts and other band activities. We hope to show in the future a group of girls who can add a great deal to the popularity of the Rockport High School Band.

We soon found him to be a humorous but hard working man. He is very well liked by all. First, a glimpse of his musical life. Antonio J. Palleria graduated from the New England Conservatory of Music, Boston, Mass., in 1950. He was a member of the Army Air Force Band at Kessler Field, Biloxi, Mississippi. During his four years at Sanborn Seminary Prep school, New Hampshire, he was active in various sports such as baseball, football and track. To help our new director, a president and council of the band were elected. President of the band and council is Ted Sullivan. Representative for the senior class is Dotty Staplesg representative for the junior class, Harold Crockettg representative for the sophomore class, Joan Norwood, representative for the freshman class, Helen Leland. Midway through our school year, we found thirty-nine members in our progressing band. We will attend the Eastern Maine Music Festival, to be held in Farmington, hoping for a high rating.

In November, Rowena Tvvitchell joined our class but we lost Harold Emery in December. So our membership has remained rather stationary. The members of our class have been very busy. We have seven band members. Five boys participated in basketball, and they were kept on the right track by three ine cheerleaders. Our carnival program was based on train travel in the United States. It was called Going Places. Nine students did outstanding work in the achievement tests. One student, Virginia Ulmer, has received all A's for the year. We are looking forward to the summer vacation and another year together in the eighth grade.
