With a "great" gathering of musicians, a specially recruited SHS Alumni band captured first place in the Adult Band division of Salem Jubilee parade on July 21 . Delighted organizers promised the band will return to perform and march in the 1991 Jubilee.

Approximately 80 alumni band members took part, along with former directors Chester Brautigam, Howard "Doc" Pardee and Richard Howenstine. Present director Jeff Jeckavitch lent his assistance, too. Band members came from Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, Florida, Illinois, Michigan, Virginia, Georgia and Washington, D.C.

The band met in the morning for registration, held a rehearsal and enjoyed a luncheon before the 6 p.m. parade.

The committee conducted a nationwide mailing to recruit alumni band members.

I New gym seats I

are 'for sale' The first phase of Salem High

School's gym renovation was completed in 1989 with the removal of the east side wooden bleachers. They were replaced by vinyl-on-steel bleachers that open and close mechanically.

The second phase, completed this past summer, included the installation of telescopic platform chairs, made of hard plastic installed on aluminum and steel decks.

Athletic Director Ray Steffen says Salem is the first high school in the country to have these state-of-the­art chairs . In order to defray the cost of the program, the chairs are purchased in a donor's name for $100. An engraved plate with the donor's name, class or "in memory of" is mounted on each chair.

Any alumnus interested in purchasing any of the remaining 250 chairs should contact Ray Steffen, Salem High, 1200 E. 6th St., Salem, OH 44460 . Phone : 216-332-8911.
