The Music Department had an active and highly successful year during 1956-57. While the Chorus was preparing for the annual Christmas Concert on December 12, the Unity Marching Band played and marched for home football games. This band also marched in several parades including Western College Homecoming parade at Macomb, the Culver-Stockton College Home- coming parade at Canton, the Red Feather parade in Quincy, and the marching show performed at halftime at Blandinsville for the Northwestern High School Homecoming. They also marched and played at our Homecoming and performed during the half-time festivities. Janet Tieken was drum majorette; Judith Evans, Sandra Baker, and Judy Warning were the twirlers. For the first time, the band marched and performed with a color guard, trained by Larry Cornwell. Members of the color guard were Eddie Powell, Clara Corrigan, Ronald Cramm, Gerhard Jung, Maureen Caley, and Larry Harris. The band included fifty-five musicians. The Adams County Music Panorama was held December 5 with Unity students participating in the festival in band, ochestra, and chorus. The chorus was composed of 250 boys and girls of the county--forty-five of them Unity students. The joint Christmas Concert was performed by the mixed chorus of 93 voices and the band. The basketball season was a busy time for the band for they played at all the home games and for the Pep meetings. They also played for Parrack’s Pancake Day and for the Ursa Elevator Co-op meeting. The District Contest for the solo and ensemble entries for both chorus and band was held March 9. Unity musicians made considerable preparation for this event and earned 9 Superior, 17 Excellent, 12 Good and 2 Fair ratings. The Mixed Chorus and the Girls Chorus each won ratings of Excellent at the District Contest on April 5 and the Band won a Superior rating. 24

BOTTOM; Clara Corrigan, Larry Harris, Ronald Cramm, Eddie Powell, Maureen Caley, Larry CornwelL The 10 Superior ratings earned the right to go to Peoria on May 3 and 4 to compete in the State Finals. The solo and ensemble entries competed on May 3 and therefore, stayed overnight in Peoria at the New National Hotel where it seemed that a good time was had by all! The band arrived in Peoria the following day for their competition among the 26 other Class B bands in the state. The ratings of the State Contest are shown on the Competitive Awards page. The annual Spring Concert was given April 28 by the band and choruses--mixed, contest mixed, and girls’. Featured at the concert was the Madrigal Singers, “Prof” K. Johnson, and “Concerto for a one-armed Paperhanger,” Mary Ellen Carolan on the clarinet, Judy Simon on the cornet, and one number each by the two brass quintets. The afternoon was also high- lighted by the presenation of a school band flag by the Music Boosters. The music students and parents enjoyed a delicious Potluck Supper on the evening of May 6 with a sizeable attendance. The band performed a Jazz Concert for the high school student body and teachers on May 15. This was the first time this type of concert had been given. Since it was so well received, it may become an annual event. The music for the Baccalaureate exercises was provided by the Girls’ Chorus and a Mixed Ensemble, the Contest Mixed Chorus and the Unity Band, without the senior members, furnished music for Commencement. The Band officers during the year were: President, Janeen Baker; Veep, Ronald Warning; Secretary-Treasurer, Sandra Schafer; SS Representative, Carol Ash; Reporter, Panchetta Grotz.
