Show A. S. U. U. BAND Six years ago the Associated Students' Pej) Hand was organized with sixteen members. Since then it has grown steadily and within the past year has increased from thirty-six regulars and six reserves to a band of fifty members. Since its organization the band has made at least thirty appearances each 3rear, playing at all regular A. S. U. U. activities, including football games, basketball games, pep assemblies, and other functions. A selected group of players accompanied the student excursion to the Utah-Colorado football game at Boulder. Aside from its regular activities, the band appeared on Homecoming Dav, "U" Day, Founder's Da}' and High School Day, paid visits to the other two major institutions of the state, the B. Y. U. and the U. A. C, and conducted a short concert tour in the spring. The membership of this group was selected out of the entire band registration, and therefore was composed of the most efficient, experienced band players of the University. Clarence J. Hawkins again acted as director. The officers of the organization were: Ralph Cloward, drum major and student leader; Alden Hatch, manager; Eric Smith, publicity manager; Richard Darnell, librarian, with Grant Workman and Paul Baer assisting. Although handicapped by minimum practice time, the band has served the Associated Students with efficiency. Clarence J. Hawkins Director Ralph Cloward Drum Major 143 |
