SLHS Band, 1946


The first picture shows the SLHS Marching band in late 1946. (My mother is the twirler on the left.) The photo was taken at what became Kempner Field facing the east stands. Notice how small they are. I think the larger wooden stands were built for the 1947 football season. The second photo shows Jean McCord Babineaux and Jean Watson (both Class of '48) posing in front of the band bus in their uniforms.

(Update) I received a note from Marjorie Hauerland Polasek ('49) who said if you look real hard you'll see her holding the Texas flag in the picture!
