BAND NE of the pioneer organizations of South Side is the band. Starting out in 1922 with but six members, it appeared a forlorn hope, but with the preserverence of its mem' bers and its leader, Mr. Schafer, it has progressed to be one of the best high school bands in the state. XVithout uniforms, the little group played at all the football games the first year and was the base of much mirth, but the players endured it the best they could, little dreaming what a great success it would develop into. The second year its membership was increased to twelve and it was supplied with green and white sweatshirts by the athletic department. These, worn with white trousers, composed the uniforms the second year. At this time the student body started to realize that a band was in existence and the organization was inf creased to thirtyffive members. The school board allotted live hundred dollars for the purchase of instruments for the band. This aroused more interest and many new members were seen this year. The band plays at many of the pep meetings and at nearly all of the athletic events, including the tournaments. Aside from this, however, the band has proved its worth in outside activities. The ParentfTeacher Club included its selecf tions in numerous meetings during the year. During the latter part of May the Kiwanis Club I g asked the band to furnish the music at one of their noon-day luncheons. The success of the Pageant, given May 27, 23 and 29, was due partly to the good band music. F WS The band is regulated very well.

Liipp joseph N Beck Patterson Buirley THE TOTEM UBLISHING an annual in three months is no mean job! To most staffs, a full year is allotted in which the year book is to be put out, but, because of so many changes on the staff, the work was not begun in real earnest until February. Not until then did the annual really have a head. At that time Hubert Beck was actually given the position of editor, although he had held it nominally for some months. After almost innumerable changes, the remainder of the staff was chosen as follows: Lucille Lapp, assistant editorg Maynard Patterson, junior asf sistant: Rose joseph, senior editorg Dorothy Somers, junior editorg Ruth Egan, sophomore editor: Marguerite Luecke, freshman editorg George Wyss, sports editorg Thelma Buirlcy, art editorg Thelma Gasser, organizations editorg Bertryl Merrill and Ruth Mae Dawkins, literary editorsg Richard Moores, cartoonistg Tom Ward and Marcella Reitz, snapshot editorsg Harold Bridge, business managerg Richard Porter' Front row+Po1terfield, Beck, Biurley, Bridge Second row -Ptirtcrsovi, Somers, Gmsvenm, Hriferr, Merrill Back row -McAfee, Egan.
