Who was the band director before Jack Chard took over?
Yes, the caning teacher was Rosnowski, or something like that.

Jesse taught percussion but not band. I don't recall him teaching chair
caning; he was piano tuning instructor.
I think you're thinking of Mr. R Rosnowski, something like that spelling.

Hi Steve,
I didn't know that Jessie Manley taught band. I remember him teaching
chair caning but that was all I knew he taught at the time.

I started playing piano, I thought it was a mandatory thing, and I
couldn't
wait to get out after a year. I had Agnes Horton as my teacher. When I
switched to snare, Jesse Manley taught me the rudimentals--drum rolls,
paradiddles, etc. I can still hear his voice in my mind "Beat, Beat,
Bounce-it".
In my first year in band, they had Park Herron and Milton Jackson as
snare
drummers, so I played the bass drum. Kathy Barkley was on timpany and
glock
and spiel; Nancy Denny was on cymbals. I learned all the percussion
antics
from Park Herron, and we certainly carried it all forward in the
following
years. Park used to make runs to Fabs during rehearsals, just like Mark
Tonkins did a couple years later.
Because I was small-framed then, I did not play bass drum when we
marched.
I had to pretend to play the cornet and that was pretty embarrassing.
Chard
didn't want me to miss marching in various events including the Holland
Tulip Festival. I don't remember who else from my class was in the band
that year, other than I think Terry Posont and I think his brother Larry
was
there then as well. I know there were over thirty and I think at least
three trombonists.
I think during 1967 I may have played snare drum at one of the band
performances, unbeknownst to Jack Chard. Park switched with me and he
played bass drum. God, I laugh at the stuff we used to mostly get away
with
then.
I remember a couple years later when Chard was holding us over to get
some
extra practice before the festivals. Terry Posont put his trombone away
and
left. I figured I would do. I quietly put the snare drum in its case,
put
my coat on and just as I was ready to walk out the backstage door, old
Jack
caught my by my coat collar. I did get in some trouble at home for that
stunt.
