The junior high band students will strut their stuff, and its surprising what they can do. We speak with experience, having enjoyed the one that was presented at Ferron this week. Its amazing to us to see these young people performing as well as they do, althouvh some of them have only been playing since school started this fall. Aout 96 kids performed Monday evening, and according to IMr. Jensen, they had one of the biggest audiences ever assembled for a band concert at South Emery. And they werent all parents either. With this type of training at our junior high schools, we should soon have one of the biggest and best high school bands in the state.
