Honors Go to Three VHS Band Members

Three VHS band members received honors at the annual Pops Concert on Friday night. Bill Tyler won the National Urion Award for outstanding musical achievement, while Dan Warrick and Raymond Horton shared the Outstanding Band Student Award. Tyler, son of My and Mrs. Hurshel Tyler, plays baritone and was named to the all-state band earlier this spring. Warrick and Horton are sophomores, playing trombone and cornet respectively. Awards were presented by band director Tubal Cain. Additional performances featured Jan Glenn, Patty Overton, Earl Lynn Bartlett, Sam Thompson as host, and Carol Blain presenting Cain a gift certificate. A near-capacity crowd enjoyed the 1920s-style intermission entertainment and sustenance in the community building.
