Two fine bands, a girls’ Glee
d ub , a close-harmonizing girls’
trio , two majorettes and threei
aolo instrumentalists, all were on

and junior high school annual
music festival an outstanding
event when more than three hun­
dred guests entered the Coquille

Tuesday
treat.
The junior high school band,
comprising some seventy pieces
led by Bandmaster Carroll Nick­
els, opened the evening’s festivi­
ties. The youngsters played sev­
eral band arrangements and pop­
ular numbrs and did an outstand­
ing job.
The band was followed by the
Girts Glee club of the Coquille
high school. This group of vocal­
ists won a superior rating at the
Southwestern Oregon Music fes­
tival and w ill compete for state
honors at Klamath Falls later this
month.
Three members of the club,
Maxine Parrish, Norma Jean Cole
Nancy Marney, a trio that has
been heard widely throughout
Coos county in recent weeks, sang
two popular numbers at the con­
clusion of the Glee club’s part of
the program.
They, in turn, were followed by
die Coquille high school band
which produced, as well as several
fine band selections, two soloists
tram its ranks. Jack Purkey, a
freshman who earned a superior
rajing in the junior division of the
recent Music Festival, played a
trumpet solo, and Donna Mast,
winner of a superior rating in the
senior division, played two num­
bers on the baritone saxophone.
Both of these young musicians
w ill compete in the State Festival.
Majorettes Joan Peart and Carol
Anne Creager gave a masterful
exhibition of the art of baton-
tw irling during an intermission of
the band music.
Both of these
young ladies w ill also appear at

Reporting for the safety com­
mittee of the Coquille Chamber
of Commerce, Chairman George
Burr told the group last Monday
that a partial study of the com­
mittee’s
recommendations
has
been made by the City Council
and that one of the provisions has
been accepted while another was
discarded.
The council has painted yellow
lines at the intersections of Sixth
and Taylor and Tenth and Taylor,
but w ill not remove the parking
meter at the northwest corner of
First and Taylor. It was con­
tended by the safety committee
that clear vision was denied mo­
torists driving east on First street
and that possible collisions could
be averted by the removal of the
parking zone.

Very good. One of the best and most informative of the recent
March of Time issues. In the United States today, 10,000,000
people, or 7 per cent of the total population, are over 60 years
of age, in contrast to 100 years ago, when the average life ex­
pectancy was 60 years. With medical science steadily in­
creasing the life span, most old folks are happy and contented
but only a few of them are prosperous. The Townsend Plan
and the Federation Employment Service are doing their part
to place old people in suitable jobs.
