That same year the high school band was merged with the city band, discontinuing instrumental music in the high school until 1933. The band is now under the direction of Mr. A. I. tPatl Atkins. The Wayne High Band is composed of 62 members. lt meets Monday. Wednesday, and Friday mornings. During the summer months of June, Iuly and August the band presents a concert every Friday evening. The various public performances this year have been: State Fair, College Homecoming, County Fair, the I-lallowesta at Norfolk, Window unveiling of the business store Windows twice a year, convocation at the college, and marching the afternoon the Hollywood Movie Stars arrived in Wayne. One of the highlights of the year is the District Music Contest which is held at Wayne. The band plays a very importantlpart in this event. A number of small instrumental groups and soloists also participate in the contest. This year another added feature was the Band Clinic which was held here. Many of the surrounding towns took part in this event. The high school students practiced under Mr. Rice, the guest conducter, while grade students were instructed by attending band leaders. ln the evening a concert was given by both groups at the City Auditorium. -30-
