High School Band The school band, which was organized in 1931, had accomplished very little until this year. However, as a result of the hard work of Mr. A. J. Nornberg, the director, and Mr. Thomas Harding, assistant director, the band was reorganized last fall and developed into a fine organization. Special practices were held whenever the director deemed it necessary and every Monday evening. Individual lessons wre given to beginners and to students interested in joining the band. These lessons were given during study periods convenient to the director and student. The band appeared at all the pep fests and at almost all the home football and basketball games. On March sixteenth this group performed at the Twin City Milk Producers' Association Conference. On April tenth the band presented a well-received co-concert with the chorus. The band was represented at the Saint Louis Park Music Festival on April fifth. The representatives were Nellie Boomhower, saxophone; Philip Luttio, clarinet; and Hibbert Sidnam. trumpet. These members took part in the mass band formed by the various lake district schools. The present band consists mostly of junior high school people. They all have proved capable of good work. They are being developed to the point where Wayzata will have a band that it can justly be proud of in the future. Page 20
