Band Although West has had a band ever since the school was first opened, it was not until the fall of 1923, when Mr. Irwin and Mr. Kelley took charge that the band began to attract notice. From a membership of sixteen the organization had a steady growth and in the spring entered the State Band Contest at Fostoria with thirty-three pieces. The band took third place in the contest. Inspired by this unexpected success, the following year the band worked hard and the membership was again increased, this time to fiftyfsix. The band played for many organizations, and by their excellent work gained a reputation which reflected much credit on the school, The State Band Contest was held in Akron that year, and Vw'est came out second only to Fostoria. ln the spring of 1926, the band was divided into junior and senior sections. The junior band was made up of freshmen, who thus were given a better opportunity to obtain help. Une Hilwidred and Tlf'c'l t'
