The next couple | of months will probably be the most ! exciting and strenuous during the} band. Probably the most import- ant is the Band Clinic in Tampa, to which three of the members of the band and Mr. Casterton went Yast Thursday and Friday, the State Fair in Tampa, and the trip to Cuba for the carnival. The band clinic is held every year. Its purpose is to select music which is suited for high school bands. There ate two hundred fifty or-more carefully selected band Students sent from bands all over =Florida to the clinic. Since this ‘number is too large for one band The group is divided into two bands, #-eoncert band and a clinic band. | ‘Ihese two bands play all types of music and plenty of it. The concert band plays a concert on Friday night for an audience of five or more. From our group Tom Cor- | nell and Mary Harris went as participants and Roberta Van Al- len as an observer. Tom played in the concert band and Mary in the clinic band. This year the twa con- ductors were Mr. William D. Re- velli of the University of Michigan, and Mr. Paul Lavalle of the Band of America. “The Florida State Fair is Ameri- ca’s greatest mid-winter exposition. It lasts for atmost two weeks, dur- ing which time there are parades, exhibits, auto races and other spe- cial events. This year will be the third year in which our band has taken part in the parade in Tampa. We will leave on Sunday, February 10, parade and visit the fair grounds Monday and come home late Tuesday night. The trip is very interesting and educational with much to see and not enough time to see it in. We don’t know too much about the carnival held in Cuba in Feb- fbary. The members of the band is wait- ing in anticipation for this trip. We wil leave Friday, February 22 on » # gunboat for Cuba. Saturday is the - many bands and colorful floats. Sunday night our band will play @ concert for the people of Cuba and Monday morning we will de- “part for home. Our only hope is that most of us will not get too sea-sick. ~~ “SMILE FOR THE BIRDIE” By Betty Rowan {Everyone was waiting expected-j Vy for the photographer to come. “They were all dressed in their best and practicing their best smiles (they were especially happy be- we were informed that the photo- make it there the students headed back in the | direction of their classrooms.

The schedule is as follows January 17 ninth vs. eleventh January 23 eighth vs. tenth January 24 ninth vs, eighth January 30 tenth vs. eleventh. OUR SCHOOL AT NIGHT Shirley Truceau & Phebe Cooper During the holidays, our school had an off-season spring clean- ing. The tiled floors were washed and waxed until they shone; ali | desks and shelves were dusted and put in order. The floor of the girls’ gym was cleaned consid- erably. All this prepared our school for its busy night life which includes adult classes, P.T.A., plays, chorus rehearsals, and variety shows The aduit classes are being held Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and ‘Thursday nights. Classes in plumb- ing, shorthand, and typing are held. The P.T. holds its regular meetings, as well as executive board and homeroom parents meet ‘ings. The regular meetings are |held on the third Tuesday of each month, while the executive board meeting meets on the second Mon- iday and the homeroom parents’ organization usually meets on | Thursdays. The Senior Class has given its first pl and will soon be planning the second play to be given in the spring.

So if you see lights on at our building every night of the week you will know that somebody is busy at work even though school was dismissed at three o'clock. THE OFFICE STAFF | By Jeanne Canova | The most important part of Key West High, besides the hers already | finds her new job very interesting after her years of teaching stu dents.
