The picture, taken in 1917, CS Citizens Proud Of School Band College Station citizens are proud of their high school band. This is evidenced by the numerous volunteers for the annual band car nival at A&M Consolidated, which is a fund raiser for needed band equipment and uniforms. “Many people have offei’ed the'ir services in the carnival,” reports Mrs, Frank Brown III, general chairman of this event. “In several cases, all members of one family have a specific job in connection with the carnival activities.” Actually, there are three bands at A&M Consolidated School. A high school band plays and march es at football games and performs many times throughout the year; a junior high band and a sixth grade band work hard on funda mentals and furnish entertainment also throughout the school year. All are under the direction of Wil lard Johnson, graduate of Oklaho ma State University and a veteran of band leadership in several schools. “We have a slight increase in the high school band this year, and we are better balanced than in the past,” says Johnson. “Next year we may hit the 50 mark.” Band members at A&M Consoli dated School have a busy year ahead of them. Johnson plans for the high school band to gave an assembly program with the choir at Hearne soon and this group pos sibly will make two or three addi tional out of town trips. All-re gion band tryouts will be held at Marlin early in January. An all region concert is scheduled tenta tively for Waco and the solo con test at Baylor University in late March or early April. Junior high band members will compete in an all-region band con test during the year. Some stu dents will compete for places in the all-region band. The junior high band will take part in May festival celebrations in Brenhaui, and the sixth grade band will tra vel to Bellville for a performance. A 14-member stage band is being organized in the high school and Johnson plans to begin a junior high stage band soon. These bands will play the “Lawrence Welk type” music.
