QVW lr '9lE la . . H V Professor Ignatius A. f:ll0lllilCkl and the lxanty Band A musician is made and not born. This statement proves correct in all types of mu- sic. Kanty's band emphasized this point even more. Only a small percentage of the students had been tutored in the field of music before entering Kanty, However, Kanty has made and produced many fine musicians during her past years. This is due mainly through the efforts of Professor Ignatius Chojnacki. Professor Chojnacki, the director of music at Kanty, took a personal consideration in any boy who thought he would en- joy playing a musical instrument, Every Tuesday and Thursday evening, Professor Chojnacki devoted his time to transmit his vast musical knowledge to the students. In the end, his efforts paid for themselves. Even though Kanty is a small school, Professor Chojnacki developed a thirty-piece band c o m p a r a b l e to many area high school bands which were double and even triple that size. Whenever the band played, its members always performed successfully. Their mu- sic ranged from waltzes and overtures to speedy marches and hit tunes. All the members believed that Practice Makes Perfect , and they did their utmost to become accomplished musicians. We can praise and compliment Professor Chojnacki and the band for representing Kanty proudly and meritoriously in many parades and gatherings, band KANTY KREEK NL'1'llK'l'Y lNl'lllI'i'N Ill ll is vi-airlmok am' from lli I Ill mil I r lk U '- 'm' fi '.
