About thirty-tive pupils, high school and grade, enrolled at the beginning of the year and continued their Work thru- out. Most of these pupils' did not know how to play the instrument 5 they had chosen, but by private lessons and many long hours of prac- tice, in about two months the band made its first public appearance at one of the basket ball games. Several other times during the year the band encouraged school spirit and honor for our high school. Wg? During the summer, instructions were continued and public appear- W' ances were make Decoration Day, Fourth of July and at the Little T T York picnic.
