Marching Band starts earning by Andrew Duerkop The Maine South Marching Band kicked off its fund raising effort for their trip to the Cotton Bowl by playing a benifit concert at Hodges Park on Septrember ninth. Though the coiKen was free, the band mask ova 13 hundred dollars by passing buckets around and asking for donations. Among other fund raising events, thwe will be a 'tag' day, a'shop in day' at local grocery stores, a band-a-thon, and an all out effort to sell pizzas.
The cost of the trip without fund raising is about 60 thousand dollars. Mr. Gordon Mclean, band director, said, "We'd like to lower the cost from one-half to almost twothirds of the original cost." He also added, "In the Cherry Blossom Festival we lowered the cost to just, about the same." ' Last week the band had a carnival sponserw by the South Parak Merchants to help in the effort. "Enthusiasm is great among band people," Said Mr. Mclean, "and community support is very good."
