C A M P U S Q BAND I HE University of Toledo band was reorganized this year after a few years of mediocre ex- istence. Walter Willihnganz was named director. They opened the year by playing at two convocations and at the bonfire and parade held the night before the opening game. A completely uniformed organization was planned but because of financial difficulties, uni- forms were not procured. St. John's high school graciously let the band use their uniforms, the color scheme of blue and gold conforming with the University's colors. The band played at all football games played here. During the basketball season the band played at many of the home games in addition to journeying to Bowling Green for the game there. Difficulty in securing a suitable time for rehearsals prevented the band from having a large enrollment. Early in the spring the Student Activities Trust Fund committee appointed a sub-committee to investigate ways and means of aiding the band to get uniforms. The school year ended by the band playing at several of the night baseball games. 'lg-+1934-- - -I29-
