Pane' Jfvfnlv-six wilhrat of -1927 I ' Banca Brchestra jantes Swinging, rythmic, syncopated tunes,-an orchestra holds forth be- tween the reels of the Saturday night movies. Enticing, entrancing, shim- mering tones of beauty pour forth at occasional dances. Why? The Medley Ramblers Orchestra of Vermont Academy is the cause. We organized as soon as school started. The lineup was as follows: The dainty Miss Chapman at the piano, Red Hot Simonds bewailing the fate of a nation on a trumpet, the banjo wielded by Speck Wheeler, the plaintive tones of aviolin were issued forth by the bow of Mr. Currier, a saxophone squealed under the breath of Cyc Hindes, the jolly and ruddy Tom Rood hammered at his drums, and last, but not least, our leader through many a pieceQMiss Tibbetts. Well, after running smoothly for a while the conglomeration decided that more lubrication was needed, and Gunboat Lawrence with his rippling clarinet joined our happy group. A few Weeks before Christmas the visions of Santy and other wild desires behooved us to move foolishly in trying to amuse our friends at Proctor Home by holding a rehearsal there. Not so good-we were stopped until we should present ourselves before the principal, explain, reconsider, and begin to function again. This took place soon after Christ- mas vacation and again we began to sally forth. Our line up, however, was a bit altered. These were the alterations. Stew Carr, ready and willing to do, took Miss Chapman's place, and as no one filled Currier's position, it remained open. History repeats itself, so, we took joe Gomez, the boy from Cuba, in as a sax player, for more oil. It was a wise move and things glided along until about the middle of March. At this time Gordon Damon, the fellow with a banjo, joined our tribe as a sub for Speck. Upon his entrance the bonds of fellowship stretched and we have fairly flown along ever since. We are whole, complete, 'rarin' to go' for the rest of this year and hop- ing to give enough of a push to start the ball rolling for nineteen twenty- eight.
