Auditions for Concert Band membership, which were held the week before final exams in the fall, resulted in a select group of forty musicians. Working intently under the baton of Assistant Professor Warren Casey, band members could be found rehearsing daily for their spring tour. The five·day tour took the concert band through parts of Arkansas and Missouri. Youth Forum weekend brought the group yet another opportunity to perform for both the HardinQ community and visitors . Later in the spring semester, the band presented it's annual outdoor concert on the steps of the Administration Building and featured several selections directed by student conductors. i'!.~ Tweet! 4:00! It's time for Marching Band practice! Fun! Excitement! The thrill of serving your school and backing the mighty Bisons! The Harding University marching band, "The Thundering Herd," played a vi tal part in the fall semester of the school year. It performed at every home football game, and supported the Bisons whole·heartedly. Under the direction of Warren Casey, the band began working on the show prior to the beginning of classes. The season ac· tually began at Camp Tahkodah music camp where old and new members gathered to review the fundamental s of marching, to have fun and to fellowship. During the week of registration the band met daily for rehearsal and various try· outs. This marching season, the band was under the field direction of Richard Kalnins, a sophomore English major from Gulfport, Miss. Richard gained experience as a drum major throughout high school and ex· hibited his ability this year as well. Although the Bison's season was plagued by inclement weather, the faithful few showed up to root the Bison's on to victory. Daphne Richardson c:ommented that the game she had the most fun was the one where she had to stand in pouring rain. Along with football games, "The Thundering Herd" participated annually in the White County Fair Parade. They en· joyed doing this because it was a service to the school and the community. 4""
