College Band Presents Convocation, Tuesday, February 23, was chosen as the date for The Fifty-fifth Anniversary Concert of the NSC Concert Band. Rehearsals began immediately after marching session ended for the concert that was to feature Mr. Don Jacoby, noted brass clinician and concert trumpet soloist. But Nebraska weather often plays nasty tricks, and Mr. Jacoby became stranded in a snowstorm and could not reach Kear- ney. Because of Mr. Jacoby's tight schedule, the concert could not be rescheduled during the re- mainder of the semester, so the band presented a special convocation two weeks later. May was tour month for the band. Concerts were presented at Broken Bow, Burwell, Loup City, Arapahoe, Lexington, Chappell, and Ogallala, Nebraska, and in Julesburg, Colorado. After returning from the exhausting tour, the band presented its final home concert of the year on May 5. Conduc- tor of the Concert Band is Mr. Gaylord F. Thomas- Mr. Carl Easterbook is assistant conductor. A list of the Concert Band personnel appears on the opposite page.
