The school activities would not have been cornplr-to without the hand The band followed the football team to the games and cheered the team on with stirring marches during the games and snappy routines at the half times. The school has also been entertained by the band or members of the band at several chapel programs during the year. The band took a large part in the Harnecomina Parade by leading it and entering a float. ' The band has participated in several outside activities this year. ll paraded in the Dairy Festival, attended the Winter Carnival at Greenwood, took part :n the I C. Railroad dedication, and attended the State Band Contest in Iackson. The band made the best showing at the band contest in Iackson that has been made since 1944. It made superior, the highest rating that can be made, in concert, sight reading, and field maneuvers, and each mem- ber returned with a three-striped medal. There were also eleven members who received superior in solo. The band could not have achieved such a rating without the capable leadership of the director, Mr. D. W. Barton. Under his leadership, the band has never failed to show high qualities. This year the enrollment of the band has topped the record for several years. It boasts 120 members, 63 of whom are in the first band, 26 in second band, and 33 in the grammar school. The school is proud of the work of the band and hopes for its success in the years to come.
