Humphreys (From The Bulldog) T he band is happy in the comple tion of the football season, tu rn in g w ith pleasure from foot-sore tru d g ing and w ind-burned faces to the more comfortable conditions indoors at basketball games. T h at speeding up th a t occurs at the end of one of the m arches is a little joke on the trom bone section, who are compelled to sw ing wicked slides to get over the notes. The name of the march is “ E P luribus Unum ," which Cecil Madden tra n s lates as “A Pulverized Onion” ! Have you noticed those deep, booming tones coming from Dale Elwood’s tuba? It is surprising w hat a little enthusiasm and practise will do! Since Kay Keener completed pre lim inary training, the saxophone section is a full q u artet. Donna Say lor, Bill Nation and Bob Jackson are the other altos, and w ith Audrey Null, soprano, Neil Borthw ick, melo dy, and Cecil Madden, baritone, the saxophone section is well rounded out, and effective. The band contains two fam ily tr i os. B arbara F ollett, on trom bone; Doris Follett, on horn, have followed big sister Frances, who is solo clari net; Allan Clarke, who recently shifted to baritone, is aided by sis ter Maribelle, on clarinet, and E thel, on horn. At th e Christm as c a n ta ta F riday n ig h t the band appeared in several styles of uniform s, choir robes and formals vying w ith the reg u lar blue uniform , because a num ber of band members also appeared as singers. One of the busiest was Phyllis Sires, who played accom panim ents for the can tata, attired in a lovely rose colored formal. The cymbal doesn’t need to be heard often, but is very effective in the “ punches”. Eugene M iller is band cym balist and does he bang those things— when he catches th e cue! To our customers and good friends we say “Merry Christmas.” And may our friendships continue to grow even stronger as the years go by. S A Y L O R ’S Merry Christm as to you— our friends, neighbors and patrons. We gladly join w ith others whose privilege it has been to serve you, in sending our h eartiest holiday greetings! DR. F.
