Former members of the Sea-
forth District High School Girls'
Trumpet Band 'from across
Ontario attended a reunion dance
Saturday night, ,from as far away
as Sudbury, Collingwood and
Toronto.
Organized by present members
of the band, the dance attracted
over 500 people.
Lawrence Plutnsteel, Principal
of Seaforth District High School
for the past 26 years said the band
started out as a one-drum accom-
paniment for the cadet corps in
1948 and some trumpets were
added in the following years.
'I don't know how the girls got
in--I guess some could play
trumpets,' he said.
The band became a girls' band
in 1957 with George Hildebrand
as director. Mr. Hildebrand has
been with the band steadily, with
the exception of two years when
Nancy Berger, now Mrs. R.
Jackman of Montreal, took over.
The S.D.H.S. principal said the
Seaforth band was the first band
to play at the International
Plowing Match on the invitation
of Gordon McGavin of Walton, a
director of the • International
Plowman's Association and a
member of the Seaforth High
School Board in 1957. For a time
it was the only band, now it is
only one of many, but the
Seaforth girls have never missed
a Match in the past-16 years, he
said.
Sunday afternoon: a reception
was held at the school when old
pictures of the band were shown
and the present 50-member band
played and performed their
routines.
Calf club

The first meeting of the
Brussels 4-H Calf Club was held
at the home of Mr. and Mrs.
Carvahlo.
There were five new members
which made twenty present.
At this meeting the members
judged mature Ayshires cows. A
few of the members gave reasons
why they placed the cows the way
they did. This was to learn for the
judging competition in Seaforth.
The leaders also explained what
to look for and how to'place them.
