Show I THIS THAT and the OTHER by Mack Meek Turner The man without a country was In his day quite a famous lamous character Now h here re In Moab Most there Is a rival for his honors but along slightly different lines Instead of the man without a country the populace here Is plagued by the park without a name Of course It may be etting the cart before beCore the horse for lor right now we dot doit have the park that needs a name To add somewhat to the confusion we wo need a name for lor the park we are going to have Just for lor the sake of still more confusion on the matter we cant can't call the park In the city City Park for or we already have a City Park that hat Is not In the city chy By the same token we cant can't call this one County Park for Its It's not In the county but Is in the city One of 01 the leading elements behInd behind be be- hind the new park movement has hast been t een the Grand county commis commis- Since the city went out Into into nto the county to build its ita City Park what could be more fitting than for tor the county to come into the city and build Its County Park We might settle the question by making it a National Monument We dont don't know who started the Idea so we cant can't give credit to that person as an individual or oro orto orto to o any organization as a whole There have been a lot of people working on the plans so many that we wont won't attempt to hand out all the credit that is due But one fellow who has put in ina a lot of hours working on the project has been Winford Bunce Dunce the county commissioner When we have needed to know something something something some some- thing about what Is going on to promote the funds for lor the park without a name the best source of Information has been Win Winford ort Dunce Bunce So since we cant can't find a better name to call it we will officially name it the Winford Bunce Memorial Me Me- morial monal Park Not many fellows can get a memorial park named after them until they have cashed all their checks and passed into the great beyond But this is a case case of the fellow being able to enjoy the cake and keep it too by being to have a lot of fun in his own memorial park So until otherwise officially changed the various benefits from rom now on are to be for the Winford Bunce Dunce Park Take it from a shutter-bug shutter there la W nothing more pleasing to photograph than a high stepping crew of band majorettes and twirlers in action We have got quite a collection of such art in our accumulation of more than black and white prints We spent two very pleasant weekends at band festivals armed with our trusty Speed Graphic The first sojourn was to Cortez Cortex for Day band festival and the other to Grand Junction for the Western Slope festival At both places and especially at Grand rand Junction there were more cameras in evidence than musicIans musicians musicians music music- ians and plenty of shutters snapped mapped during the sessions We have lave often wondered just how many pictures color slides and how many reels of movie are being being being be be- ing shown or ort ori those two band ses ses- So impressive was the outlay of cameras in action it brought forth fortha a new idea of band projects Our good friend Bill LeFevre director of the Montezuma County High school band called out the horn hom lorn tooters looters drum major twirlers twirl twirl- ers erg and nd at least in this case the flag wavers for or a day devoted to camera fans ans The band turned out at 2 p p. p m. m Sunday at the football stadium in Cortez Artez and for tor a home of the colorful performance staged at Grand Junction and cameras were Invited Both the hl high h school and junior high bands took part This guy LeFevre certainly knows the value of color to a bands band performance His idea of adding the flags and the girls his his its junior high horn ham tooters looters have identified as the this tn In m the bathing bath bath- big ing suits to the high school band certainly added that little something something some some- thing called color to the show We haven't figured out the reason reason reason rea rea- son for the solid black flags nags and why the orange hue bue of the school colors of orange and black was left out but there must be a good reason Now he scores another first with his Camera Day for the band So hats off oft to Cortez and its colorful band and a director who has made It one of the best in our neighboring state of Colorado That is one of the things that we have found sadly neglected in Utah schools Perhaps they have good bands In the big cities but we have noticed band festivals I over the state have sadly lacked I bands Athletic events and school functions fun I be become pretty drab without something to Liven them up with some pep instilling music Parades without a band are a flop nop before they start l A 1 high s school hool band Is one of the best
