A SCRAPE
A true Story wn , tl•n ti, Tom Darr
-o--
(Ed .. ·otc: Thi is th e most appro.
pru.te title the author could think of.
Ye s, it w:.s a crape, and l don·~
mean pe h,,ps. Well hn • it is.
I couldn't find out what kind of a
d ay it was, but if the w •ather wa,
good that was the only thing abou t
it that wa~. An yway 1t wa · th e day
in the spring of '34 wh<.; n E llS wa ·
sending its band to 'onallis fo1· the
annual band contest.
Th e bus took off bright and eatly
filled to th e brim with about twen ty.
five b<1nd members. All went well un.
til they rolled into Salem whe11 w ith
horror they discove ·ed tha.t Dave
"Panny" Petrasso had left hi s trum•
p •t in Estacada.
Immed iately the
I 111(! instructor,. Mr. Weber, ran t(I
a tl'kphone to phone Mr. Eliassen
w ho w •. s coming later to bring some
).(iris. Ile was also to bring the chap.
crone.
l n the meantime much had hap-
pe11 cd back in Estacnda. Dave's sis-
ter lu,d found his horn in the band
room at school. So, knowing that Ml\
Eliasse n was going she just gave the
horn to him but he had already left
when Mr. Weber phoned from ' alem.
However Mr. Web.er who talked so
fust in i,1 ivate life urged on by h is
3-minute limit tai'ked so confound ed
fast that th e person on the Estacad a
end of the w ire couldn't shove ,
word in cdg<? ways until he finally
had to gasp for breath to keep from
com1>letely pus ·ing out. It was then
expla ined t :iat M 1·. Eliassen had left
w ith th e horn. Th en just a s Mr. Web.
r stcpp d from th e phone booth h e
s:.:.w M1. Eliassrn flying low ov •r
Salem 1 <-ally leaving- the pavement be.
h i1.J him Lard on hiH way to Corval•
)i s. ( In the co11fu ,io n he had for).(Ot·
ten th r C'hap!'ron!' , :\1 i. R \Vhitl·omb,
who is now Mrs. Eliassen.)
Th <.' n th<! bus l.J1uk .., all speed re
so
he told
Weber
what
had hap•
µencd.
Mr. Mr.
Weber
then
donned
the
ba~s drum and staged a one man
parade thruout
orvallis poundin
on the drum ro u nding up the band.
When he managed to get a few of
then1 together he sent them out for
a few more and it v asn•t long until
the band was a ssembJed.
Th e moral of t h is little tale of woe
is, never attempt anything on Friday,
the 13th. However, all is well that
ends well. They entered the contes
and came home with third place for
the state. Dave won the state chum.
pionship for his t rumpet solo.
