Band Room's New Cold Carpet Enlivens Practice Sessions Marching band season began with a week of camp at Wofford College. New officers, sophomore initiation, early morning drills, long hours spent mem- orizing music, learning new faces and training in anticipation of the state contest built unity. Autumn afternoon practices helped achieve perfection in pre-game and half-time shows. Pep music added to the atmosphere of foot- ball and basketball games. Band Boos- ter candy sales enriched the anticipa- tion of the triennial trip to Florida. The state contest at Airport High School brought tense feelings, high spirits, last minute tune-ups, medita- tion, concentration and performance. Marching in the Christmas parade, providing music for the NHS Installa- tion and the Christmas Assembly re- flected Sumter High's talent, integrity, and pride. . ., . . 4 t --r..,fs:g.1 : ,Af P ' s 5 W Rfk. fy, V445 .Hi X Us ,s M., 'Z 295' .of f ' ,.'5B:.1 :sf ii. is We gg.

l New Realm of Music and Marching Gpens for Sophomores Sophomore musicians arriving at summer band camp were cordially wel- comed by veteran band members and a shower of eggs, peanut butter, and grease. The initiation exercises soon subsided, however, and the newcomers spent most of their time learning the fundamentals of marching. Although tense, nervous, and excited prior to their first performance at the Sumter-Manning football game, soph- omores had little difficulty keeping time with the more experienced senior band. Providing a spirited atmosphere for Council Street pep rallies and assem- blies, and joining with the senior band in preparation for the state marching competition were other activities that improved and refined the skills of the sophomore players. 110 Organizations wiv twain ' f Ui SOPHOMORE BAND - Front Row: Mr. Robert Sanders, Director, Leigh Mazursky, Susan Motter, Anne Wand, Dody Meadows, joyce Sweat, Daryll johnson, Marce Peeples, Kathy Brewer: Second Row: Cherie Yarborough, Silinda Canty, Major Scott, Douglas Burgess, john Smiley, Mike Sautter, Tommy Dabbs, David Stone, Walter Gerald, Third Row: joey Ayers, Kevin Williams, Mike Lane, Tyrone Chastain, Willie Lucas, Marion Baker, Fourth Row: Ronald Hudson, Chevon jackson, Robert Brown, Lorenzo McDonald, Ternice Baylor, Walter Pringle, Matt Yates, Fifth Row: Alex james.
