1933 :
The regular round of Summer concerts continued with performances everywhere from the local cricket field to Roundhay Two Day Flower Show; from local parks to Manchester, West Ham and three days at Skegness in September.
Harry Nuttall had succeeded Nathan Sidebottom and gained himself a conductor's medal and second prize for the band, plying "Coriolanus" at Skegness contest.
However, for the Crystal Palace Championship (Prometheus Unbound) the most prominent professional conductor of the day, W. Halliwell was engaged for 12 guineas but the Band did not score in the result.
At the Whit Friday March contests "Simplicity" won them a first prize and a second.
In addition to paying the Band conductor and the principal cornet/Bandmaster outside players were often hired and the Bandsmen were running various efforts to maintain funds, but at the end of the year the books had to be balanced by "a loan from the treasurer" of £4 12s 5 1/2d.
