AND Lack of Money Hampers Future Plans Clemson University ' s Marching Tiger Band managed to pull thirough anothier successful year due to some hard work on the part of a handful of students. Prob- lems have been rising for the organiza- tion in past years, ranging from mem- bership to money. Although no major solutions were reached during the course of the year, several of them were amplified to the proportions that some- thing might be done in the very near future. Probably the major problem that has always plagued band members is the lack of a bona fide school of music at the Clemson campus. The lack of a major or minor has certainly not helped in recruiting more music minded stu- dents who could possibly join the or- ganization. Dr. John Butler, the head of 22 student Lite the music department, does not seem very optimistic that one will appear in the future, due to a general concentra- tion in more scientific and technical fields. Students who spend many hours each week in the fall practicing, only receive one hour for their efforts, which they may repeat several times. Another problem which stems from the lack of a department is that of de- cent facilities. The band practice room which is located across from the bookstore, is barely large enough to hold the members. Conditions in the room have also received some criticism since there has been no reparations to the facilities since its construction. The rugby field, which is used by the Tiger Band for their fall practice, is also a topic for some criticism. Several have claimed that some better accommodations could be provided. Money, which has proven to be a problem for most student organizations, is no less of a stumbling block for the Tiger Band. The group receives no money from university fees which sup- port most student activities on campus. All costs are taken directly by the music department that is by no means over- ridden with money. The department could only pay to send the band to two away games during football season. Most schools throughout the nation have their bands at every game. Contribu- tions helped to send a representative group to a third game during the sea- son, but the familiar sound of Tiger Rag was missing from three others.
