l xg 1,5 .i . The smaller marching band is made up of those band members who do not play football. The band shows, which were ar- ranged by Mr. Green, were usually practiced between 8 and 9 a.m. Monday through Fri- day. The marching band put on five band shows at football games. The senior high band consists of 62 members of which 14 are seniors, 17 juniors, ll sophomores, 11 freshmen, 6 eighth grad- ers, ani 3 seventh graders. Cold weather and the end of football season brought the band inside to work on concert music which makes up the majority of the work in the instrumental department. The band enjoyed playing the different lighter numbers featuring the sections of the band, such as Hliassus Trombone, Basses Berserk, and Drastic Drummin', but they also enjoyed the challenge of Orpheus, Under the Double Eagle,', and The Uni- versal Judgementf' The last two were the contest numbers that were played at Dis- trict contest.

.1i ,y,',,d, Mr. Green raises his baton and another season of sum- mer band concerts in Bressler Park begins. PE TH , . lu, 'fp..Tl- 1 tiff-2-IEEE P For the instrumental music students, coming back to high school in the fall of '55 meant getting out their marching shoes, hats, and lyres. Although much of the marching was done by the 4-5-piece marching band, the entire senior band turned out to participate at the Harvest of Harmony, Fall Opening, Homecoming, and State Fair. The band did not enter the contest at the Harvest of Harmony in Grand Island he- cause rules state that the first year a band attends, it may not compete. The band is looking forward to when it may enter the contest. Many Second Street and Sherman Street residents ware awakened to the tunes of Bombasto, Chief of Staff, and Steppin Hi g for at eight o'clock, the marching band stepped off in time to the nine-piece drum section as they practiced their marching routines. The marching band is lead by drum majorette Maydelle Echtenkamp and the five majorettes, Judy Kollmorgen, Patty Strong, Patty Olson, Roberta Haas, and Mary Pawelski. High stepping, short skirts, excellent twirl- ing, along with the flash of instruments and blue and gold uniforms, give the band a very flashy effect.

DIRECTOR: Vlr. Green. High, and the community. Many former Wayne High students enjoy playing for these summer concerts. Wayne is one of the few Class B schools in the state of Nebraska which has an orchestra. The orchestra plays for class plays and graduation exercises. The or- chestra was frequently visited by Dr. Bern- stein of W.S.T.C. and members of his col- lege orchestra. There are many small instrumental groups which play for different civic and church functions. Included in this group are the clarinet quartet, woodwind quintet, horn quartet, brass sextet, German band, dance band, and pep band. Mr. Green who has directed instrumental music at Wayne for three years has worked diligently in making the band: soloists, small groups, and orchestra among the best in Northeast Nebraska. Ile has proved to us that music is a big job and one which gives rich rewards.
