"ib know, music is to know life.V
J. Maynard Wettlaufer, recognized
as a top man in his field, and
author of ^'Building a show Band"
and other text-type books, knows
mualc because it has been an in-tegral
part of his whole life. ,
J. MAYNARD
I? K#a love and taleAt for
weren't go paramount, Mr. Wett-laufer
might havt enjoyed a career
as a chemical engineer which would
parallel his position In the musical
world. While at Colgate University
ho was accepted as a full junior at
M.K.T., but his musical talents were
too salient not to be recognized.
He won the coveted Music Composi-tion
Award and the Fresser Founda-tion
Music Scholarship.
* * * *
We -are fortunate to have so
capable a man to be the Music
Director:of Freeport Schools. Born
in WilMamspbrt, Pa., he studied
with the best at an early 'age, play-
Ing the piano, violin, viola, and
French Horn. He has an A3. de-gree
(Colgate), Bachelor of rMusio
(Shemwood Music School) and an
MJ3. degree in Educational Admin-istratldn
(HofstraJ. Prior-.to com-ing
to Freeport (1935), Mr; Wett-laufer
was associated with band and
orchestra programs ,in Harridburg,
111., University of North,Dakota, and
WilllBansport, Pa. He Instigated
and successfully .launched music
and band programs with * these In-stitutions
which - won 'him national
recogn&tdion. It was on the strength
of ths wealthy background that he
was chosen to fill the vacahacy
caused by Pet*er H.* Fre*y'a death*
Today Freeport High School has
gained an enviable reputation with
Ma mnslo program and has become
a model for ethers to follow. %hls
honor Is due to Mr. Wettlaufer's
efforts supported by the full co-operation
of Dr. Johq W. Dodd,
