JUNIOR TOOTERS AND GRACE NOTES The B Band is the organization which, under the direction of Mr. Robert Burford, trains less experienced pupils for the A Band. Helping to till in the ranks ot the marching A Band is a duty they always perform willingly. They also play for Open House and help with the Band's Evening of Music. lt is the ambition of every one of these musicians to be able to say someday, My uniform is number --. You should see how it fits, but l like it anyway. Those sweet-voiced ensembles that you heard in the Pleasant Run Revue were the Howe Octets. ' The girls sang l Dream of You With Julia Moore as soloist. I've Been Working on the Railroad was sung by the boys. Both groups also sang in the May Music Festival and the Evening of Music.
