Marching Band Halftime Shows Entertain Matadors VVhat would a football game he without watching a marching hand during halftime? Or going to a pep rally and having no music there to raise your spirits? Wlell, the Sandia High Marching Band, under the direction of 'llom Martin, did a good joh of fulfilling our expectations of always being there. Besides performing at games the band marched in the annual Christmas parade and was awarded third place. A lot of hard work went into their performances. The hand practiced Monday through Friday starting at seyen in the morning. They also had extra practices when needed to prepare them for the performances. The marching hand raised money for the band program by sponsoring a ham dinner, and also sold grapefruit and oranges. The drum major for this year is Mark Wittt-ri, who also played in the lVlcDonald's All-American Band at the Macyds Thanksgiving Parade and the Rose Bowl Parade. 3 af 'Q ,K A Y , - W 9.24, Z M QW., J' ABOVE: Giving an afternoon performance tor an assernhlx crowd on the outside haskethall courts. the hand prefers to not march.

Talent, Hard Work Play Major Role In Band's Success The two stage bands in '76 consisted of students interested in expanding their musical experience, selected by individual audition. The first band had several concerts in the media center and other places around school. After first semester they were unable to perform in front of an audience because of the loss of key members. lnstead they practiced daily to achieve the ability of playing various styles of music. Mark VVitten, who played trumpet for this group, was one of two people from New Nfexico selected to play in the Macy's Thanksgiving parade and the Rose Bowl parade. While playing at the West Mesa Stage Band Festival, the second stage band received the highest possible rating, judged on several different areas. The student body was enriched and entertained by these groups. Mr. Ted Rush and Mr. Tom Martin brought these bands to a higher level of musical ability.
