Noted for its snappy maneuvering and musical precision, the University of Rochester Marching Band again made several appear ' ances during the football season at both the home games and the frequent pep rallies. Composed of 50 men , picked for drilling abilities from both the Eastman School of Music and the Men’s College, the band has fur ' nished a bit of collegiate spirit during the halves to raise the hopes of loyal coeds in the stands. Freddie Fennell should well be proud of his hard ' working boys’ for the following bit of praise gleaned from the pages of the Tower Times, publication of the Women’s Campus, in the following lines: “The crowd jumped to its feet and yelled; Excitement went sky ' high. Banners waved and coeds cheered. The din rose to the sky. --H. ; i-. The boys marched down the field in line; There wasn’t a battle scar.

PICTURES . Opera ' Amateur and Pro Highlighting the social calendar of the spring season was the Dormitory Formal in May. Music was furnished by Rolfe Newton’s newly popular orchestra. As a Thank-You expres¬ sion the fellows got together and serenaded the girls with a Sunday “Pop” concert in the dormitory quadrangle; John LaMontaine was the featured soloist. Sid Mear, third year student, represented the East¬ man School on the Musical Americana program under the direction of Raymond Paige. His selection was so artistically performed, that Carlos Chavez, who was listening in, signed him to play 1st trumpet in the sum¬ mer season with the Mexico City Symphony Orchestra. Climaxing the year’s concert activities was the an¬ nual Festival of American Music with Dr. Hansen conducting. At this late date, with the usual query of “When’s the Score Coming Out” ringing incessantly in our ears, the staff of the yearbook wishes to take the time and space to thank all of you for the cooperation you have given us and the patience with which you received our mute appreciation during the course of editing and publishing. We hope we have “re¬ viewed the year” as most of you remember it; may your future hold as many potential blessings. Composer’s Confab It ' s A Llyle
