This organization has played for football games, teacher's convention, the Armistice Day program, the Christmas program at the City Auditorium, and for many other civic and school activities. The band is now composed of thirty members. During the year it has shown much progress and improvement. Greater skill in sight reading and producing better tone quality have been two of the goals for the year. Six members of the band fBob Duis, Andy Davis, Kenneth Agnew, John Osborn, Wendell Belieu, Roger Danielsj organized a German band. These boys have played for basketball games, pep rallies, the junior class play, and many other occasions. The climax of the year was the instrumental clinic with Hugh McMillan, director of bands at Colorado University. He conducted the combined bands of Sterling and Sidney. There are thirty-five junior band members who should be grad- uated into the regular band some time this summer. Next year's band promises to be a more perfectly balanced group of musicians. 1Twenty-eightl e U ' field 89' 'BX' YNBOYJ

Senate Miss Throckmorton, Mr. Winn, Mr. Burnham, Mr. Mathews, Miss Anderson. The Congress is composed of the Senate and House of Represent- atives. The Senators are members of our faculty, and are- elected in the same manner as our Federal Senators. Their presiding officer is the Vice President. The House of Representatives is composed entirely of students. Each class is a state that is divided into four districts. Each district elects one member to represent it in the House of Representatives. This form of School Government has proved very satisfactory as it gives the students a say-so in the government and also an opportun- ity to learn how our National Government is managed. May the School Government always continue for the benefit of future students.

Urclhiestira The Sidney High School orchestra has been handicapped this year by its lack of members. In spite of this the orchestra has played some very fine music at the Christmas program and at other times when re- quested to play. Two members of this organization, Bob Duis, fClarinetJ and Pamela Kinne Cviolinj, were selected for the State Clinic held at North Platte, Nebraska, December 7, 1944. Each was outstanding in his partic- ular field of music. These two students have also played solos for many of our civic clubs. Several members played solos at the District Music contest which was held at Scottsbluff. With many new activities to serve as incentives, it is believed that the orchestra will once again function as successfully as it has in pre- vious years. Those students who are now members will form a splendid group with sufficient experience to be a foundation for a larger orches- tra next year.
