Band lt's a mad rush and no holds barred! First come, first served!-lt's ninth hour and the race for stands is on in Boom 9. ln the midst of a deafening cacophony of tuning-up, Prof l-larrod arrives on the scene, and rehearsal for the high school band gets under way. On the more serious side, the red-and-white clad musicians have had a most successful year. They were a Welcome addition to all home basketball games with their bright uni- forms and snappy music. They were on hand for parades, concerts, teachers' institute, and other events during the year. Several members of the band attended the music clinic at Cen! tralia in December and played in the clinic band, and also the solo and ensemble con- tests in the spring. The entire band entered also. A highlight in the bands activities for the year was a party given in October by the Band Patrons Association. At Wayne Deals home in the country, a delicious feed was served around a roaring fire to the members of the band and their guests. This was fol- lowed by a hayride around the country roads, complete with a full moon, singing, and a good time for everyone, Officers of the band for the past year are as follows: Wayne Deal ,... ...,....,..,......
