Home. Tech’s Band Throughout the fall football season and the spring Fiesta season, with typical music, and Tech colors flying high, Earle Zucht and Pollyanna Earnest, dressed in flashing red and white uniforms, and acting as drum majors, pranced on to victory with Tech's Band. This organization, directed by Mr Jean Sarli, is a tireless group which has done many things to help put over the school spirit. First, by cooperating with the Red Jackets, the band made possible the presentation of some of the most spectacular for mations ever attempted by a high school drill team. Tech is very proud of the splendid showing which was dis played by the band at the various civic and school parades which they marched in and played for on various occasions. Every student of the school has, at some time or another during the year, caught the spirit of this group and stepped a little livelier, having been pepped up by the music of the band, either at a pep rally, at a football game, or at some other significant appearance of this organization. —

Ais Uck Elizabeth Head Vice-Pres. Second Building Scjuad Junior Student Council Flash- Junior Student Council is organized at Tech! The Junior Student Council, organized for the first time during the term 1935-36, was really a flash. Before this was formed alternate Student Council members had been elected to attend meetings only in the absence of their advisory dele-gates, and therefore did not take pari in many of the ac' tivities. In order that the members might actually participate in an active Student Council, the Junior organization was begun under the sponsorship of Miss Georgie Black and Mr. Wilbur Tyte. Camille Berault and Elizabeth Head were elected president and vice president respectively. Visitors who come to Tech find these students on the job, maintaining perfect discipline in the halls during the coun-selling and advisory periods Just before an assembly, students may be found at different positions, giving out programs, help mg with the seating, and enforcing traffic regulations through' out the first building. »• 9 Third Bui Min Firef Building
