Mu if Music - The music section at SWHS cannot be traced back 25 years, but in its 5 years of existence great strides have been made. Halt a decade ago there were ba rely enough students for a small band. Today, St. Wendelin boasts of a senior band and a junior band. To add to this accomplishment, the senior band rated a good in its first statewide competition last spring. Much of the band's success is due to Mr. Ralph Lupidi, music director of SWHS. As the Foslin goes to press, word has been confirmed that Mr. Lupidi will not be back at St. Wendelin's next year. For the great work he has done in getting the music program here organized, St. Wendelinites join in saying Thanks, Mr. Lupidi, and good Iuckg God bless your future work. Mr. Ralph Lupidi Music Director The 1956 Edition of the St. Wendelin Concert Band
