THE DRUM MAJORS PRESTON NEWTON JOHN BURROUGHS EDWARD TAGGART McKz'n'ley Eastern Central THE CADET BANDS By KARL E. KRUMKE, JR., H. S. C. HE CADET BAND is an integral unit in each of the four Cadet Regiments. The Cadet Band performs the duties of a musical unit in the Army by rendering musical and military services to all occasions where its aid is needed. The Band is an im- portant unit at the Battalion, Regimental and Company Competitive drills. These formations would be practically impossible without the ser- vices of a band. Many do not realize the value of a good Band to the Regiment to which it is attached. The Band furnishes the cadence to which the Companies march. If the cadence is lagging or imperfect, the Companies' step is hindered greatly. On the other hand a snappy cadence will inspire almost everyone to work and do his best. The history of the Cadet Bands is a very short one, for they have risen to their present standard since Captain L. E. Manoly, U. S. A., was given command of them in 1927. In the earliest years of the Cadet Corps a Band was an unknown unit. A little later, by drafting from all the High Schools, a Band was usually formed for Cadet parades, but this was not very successful. Sergeant Frederick Hess, U. S. A., was the first real organizer of The Cadet Bands. Captain Manoly increased the Bands' favor with the students so that after a few years an assistant Band instructor was needed. At pres- ent Captain Manoly has charge of McKinley and Eastern. Captain McAdoo supervises Cen- tral and Western. This year the Band of Mc- Kinley High School is the largest Band ever in the Cadet Corps, being composed of fifty members. The Band Competitive drill is held in con- nection with the annual Battalion drill, the Bands being judged on their conduct and pro- ficiency in executing their part of the Battalion parade. The Band is commanded by a full ranked Cadet Captain who is assisted by one or two Lieutenants, the number being decided upon by the size of the Band. The Drum Major is the highest ranking non-commissioned officer and is assisted by a staff of sergeants and corporals, the number of which is also judged by the size of the Band. This year McKinley took first honors in the Band Competition and Eastern, second. In the future we hope the Cadet Bands will continue to flourish and grow as they have in the past, CAPTAIN LUDWIG E. MANOLY CContinued quickly and easily developed and is a most attractive medium for musical expression. The band is capable of a development similar to the symphony orchestra and in certain ways the music of the band is superior to that possible from Page 885 from an orchestra of any kind. Sustained organ- like effects of great power and loveliness are possible as from no other musical means, to state but one of the unique effects of which this type of organization is capable.
