academy band.
A junior band of 15 pieces
meets each Monday and Wednes
day at 8 am.
Band Director Charles B.
Houser said prospects for a large
class of beginners are good this
year. Tollowing programs and
demonstrations of instruments
at the schools last week, over 70
children in the fourth grade
through the eighth grade said
they want to learn to play in
struments.
These children will be enrolled
for a trial period of one month.
During this time they will be
given opportunities to try differ
ent instruments to discover for
themselves which one suits them
best. The teacher will be able to
advise the parents on this basis
before they purchase or rent an
instrument.
A trial period of this type will
help to assure an even start for
all beginners, Mr. Houser ex
plained.
