These young people, under the guid ance of Mrs. Shirley Oxley, have revived a nearly defunct band and made It one of the busiest and most active programs at the high school. It all began a year ago when tlie word was out that the band was all through. There just wasn't a music teacher avail able. "No, sir, the band Is too important to the students and the school to be put away like an old shoe," Mrs. Oxley slated ' emphatically. Suddenly it was learned that Mrs. Oxley was a band leader at heart, with a background of college and high school band study. She recruited about 35 students and started band prac tice at 8 a.m. before classes. The students received no grade credit for band, and all volun teered their early morning pre school time to be a part of tlie band. Before long, people in town began to perk up as snappy band music was being heard at the ball games, and in every city parade the "kids" and Mrs. Oxley would march proudly down the street blaring out Sou sa's best. The band that had struggled along for the past 10 years with a grand total of possibly 15 stu dents, when it was part of the school curriculum and consid ered a "cinch course," now Grange Slates Booster Night Midland Grange will hold Its annual Booster Night on Satur day, Oct. 26, at tlie Grange Hall to introduce the grange to non members. A 6:30 p.m. no host pollock will be followed by a program and the recognition of 50-year, 25-yenr, and charier members. Guest speaker will be Wayne Johnson of Portland, stale as sistant steward. &$XSTAR -By CLAY" R. Your Dolly Attordmg ATS.

There is still no school credit for tlie course, and band prac tice is still at 6 o'clock in the morning. One drawback has arisen. The band has no uniforms and tire school musical instruments are practically archaic. "In fact the drum and tubas would gladden the heart of any antique collec tor," said Mrs. Oxley. The students and Mrs. Oxley have been working for tlio past year to solve this dilemma. With tlie aid of cake sales; sell ing candy, wooden figurines, and magazines; sponsoring dances; and even raking leaves for the city residents, tliey have stashed away nearly $2,000 to ward their uniforms and new instruments. This year their aim is In march in splendor at tlie East West game in San Francisco on Dec. 28. Tlie uniforms have been ordered on a loan from the Modoc Student Council and the $2,000 in tire bank. Still ahead of the students is over $1,000 to meet the rest of the cost, as well as earning the $1,000 to pay back tlie student council. "We'll make It though." Mrs. Oxley says. "With the kindness of donations from parents and friends of the band, along with the work these kids arc putting out, we'll meet our goal and keep on working to improve and belter our band." This past week more than $100 has come into the band fund from local citizens w h 0 have suddenly realized what this young, eager group is doing on its own without bogging help from anyone. Mrs. Oxley explained that Hie bund receives Invitations In pa rados and festivities in other communities but have felt un able to accept when tliey arc not properly uniformed. Call it what you like, pioneer spirit. Ihc enthusiasm of vouth. old-fashioned school spirit, or Just a group of eager students with tho leadership of an ex ceptional teacher proving that tecn-aors are belter than ever. Die Modoc Union High School band can't help hut thrive. GAZEV POIXAN Activity Cutd to f(S Sion, 21 fW P3-37.4A !M h0-7?fl0 894 KOfWO MOV !!

Red Trade Delegation Off To U.S. MOSCOW (UPD-The Soviet government newspaper Izvestia today announced the departure of a trade delegation for tlie United States "in accordance with the wishes expressed by the American government.' Although Izvestia did not say so, the mission is going to nego tiate the purchase of up to $20 million worth of wheat to help alleviate shortages in the U.S.S.R. caused by bad grain harvests. The Soviet Union already has contracted for $600 million worth of Canadian and Austra lian wheat. "In accordance with the wishes expressed by the Ameri can government, a Soviet gov ernment trade delegation headed by First Deputy Foreign Trade Minister Sergei Borisov left Moscow for the United States to conduct trade talks," Izvestia said. Borisov was the Soviet offi cial who negotiated the pur chase of B.8 million tons of wheat from Canada. While he was in Ottawa, he was con tacted by American grain deal ers who then requested U.S. government permission to sell to the Soviet Union. President Kennedy approved the sale of wheat to Russia and certain Eastern European coun tries on Oct. 9. That fact was communicated to the Soviet people in a two sentence story distributed to all newspapers by tlie official news agency Tass. Premier Nikita Khrushchev last month frankly told the Rus sian people the extent of the poor grain harvest, but assured them there would no bread shortages if they did not waste it. lie disclosed then for tho first time internally that Moscow had purchased millions of tons of wheat from Canada and Aus tralia.

PAGE-U Army Boosts Atomic Punch WASHINGTON (UPD - The Defense Department announced today that the Army is increas ing its nuclear punch in Europe and the Pacific by a broad scale deployment of more mod ern weapons. This entails w ith drawal of older types. Weapons being withdrawn in clude the 280-milimeter cannon, said to be the first gun capable of firing an atomic shell. Also being pulled back are the liquid - fueled Corporal missile and the winged 'Lacrosse mis sile. Solid-fueled sergeant missile units, a new 17-milimeter self propelled gun and an improved Honest John rocket are being substituted for the older weap ons. "In addition, the Army is de ploying larger numbers of nu clear warheads for the eight inch howitzer," the Pentagon said. "This program, which the U.S. lias discussed with its Al lies, will produce an overall in crease in the quality and quan tity of artillery fire-power," the announcement said. Most of the reference was to Europe, but officials said Ser geant missiles and the new 175 mm gun also would be deployed in the Pacific. The Sergeant has a range of about 75 miles, same as the Corporal, but can be fired much more quickly and with smaller crews. It is known that the Army also plans to replace its liquid-fueled Redstone missiles in Europe with the solid-fueled Pershing. Today's announcement did not mention the Pershings which have a range of up to 300 miles. Though the numbers of nu clear weapons in Europe are secret, Defense Secretary Rob ert S. McNamara has said re peatedly that the battlefield types in Europe have been In creased by 50 per cent since he took office.
