Information taken from contest programme, BBW 38, and British Bandsman 4797

In a report that otherwise lists the placing and points of every band that played in BBW 38, Bollington is not listed. A short article appears directly above (p.25) reporting the tragic death of their former conductor Brian Taylor while watching them at the contest. Are these two things related?
