The annual Band tournament was held in Mer- rill, May second and third. The band was entered in Class C. They were awarded a second in con- cert, zi first in marching and in sight reading. As a warm-up number, the band played, The March of the Steel Men by Belsterling. The required number was, The Crusaders by Buchtel. As a selective number the band gave The Scarlet Drag- on by Hanneman. The instrumental soloists did right well for them- selves, likewise. Evvie McCor'mick for the third successive year won a first in saxaphone solo. Norma fljaderewskij Krueger was chosen top pianist over sixty-four other contestants to play at an all-star concert Friday night at Merrill, the first day of the tournament. Needless to say, she got a first . Her selection was Impromtu by Rienhold. Lilas Whipple, for the second successive year, won a first for a flute solo. Norma Krueger, by virtue of her excellent show- ing in Merrill, played her solo in St. Paul. After much delay we found she was awarded a 2nd di- vision. Right here and now I think we should stop and give a nice big bouquet to that band of ours, a really worth while crowd. Their volunteer playing and summer concerts, in fact, every thing they do is a credit for us to be proud of. 51 2 s.-va. M, A, ,........ an ,G ei' i +- 'ifiy L.. r .' ., ...

The gals sang at the tour- nament May 2 and 3 at Merrill. They rendered June Rhapsody and The River , the required number. While drifting on the river, they drifted too far and received a second , but that's pretty good too. It is not perfect, but who wants perfec- tion anyway? If everyone was perfect there would be nothing to criticize. Think how many people would be thrown out of a job, and of how many more would be very unhappy, because they would not have anything to moan about. Oh now, l'm off the track again. Let's see, where was I? Oh yes, the tournament. Well, the soloists were really cooking with gas. Two firsts and two thirds : Jean Orcutt and Marge Hebert, Darlene Morren and Phyllis Kropla, respectively. The one quartette, Orcutt, L. Bronsted, E. Martin, V. Ball received a first and the triog C. Stoke, L. Kuehling, G. Lambert likewise. The other triosg M. Feind, L. Thomp- son, V. Coey and M. Wurl, D. Neumeyer, D. Morren were awarded a second and a third respec- tively. The Glee Clubs this year have a new directoress -Miss Margaret Cox. Glee cluhbers-V. Ball, E. Martin, L. Bronsted, j. Orcutt. Solo winners-J. Orcutt, L. Whipple, G. Bartelt, N. Krueger, M. Hebert. ar? DY. Boys quartettc?H. Kaphaem, G. Bartelt, D. Redmond, G. Mitchell. Soloist and accompanist-E. McCormick, C. Stoke, G. Lambert, N. Krueger. BOYS GLEE CLUB Oh Boy, Oh Boy, Oh Boy! Are the Boys Glee Club some fishermen. They went in the swim at the Tournament Waters on May 2nd and 3rd, at lvlerrill, Wisconsin, a well known resort. How they did it I'l1 never know, but while they were casting in The Sea they caught a 2nd . The boys quartette, seeing the Glee Club go, were not satisfied with the streams around here and began singing fgood, tool I lVIust Go Down to the Sea Again . They sang so loud that they caught a first fand that's no minnowj. Nice catch- in', eh what? The soloists weren't the fishing type, although George Bartelt did go travelin and received a first. Gordon Mitchell went to find Where His Caravan Had Rested and found a second. Leland Helgeson stayed home with his Vilia and received a second also. Speaking of George Bartelt, and I was a few minutes ago--he not only Traveled around Mer- rill, but the vagabond spirit really got him. He traveled clear to St. Paul to the National Music Tournament, where he received a 2nd which means practically perfect! The Boys Glee Club has never been very large at any one time, but they have always turned out a grand performance. If I had a hat on, I'd take it off to them! 6129?
