Belgian Band Coming Here Next Month Musicians Connected With Roydl Palace At Brussels Concert May 1 to Present Much Symphonic Music Advance bookings in more than bO cities in the United States and Canada indicate that the first Ainer / ioan tour of the symphonic band of the Royal Belgian Guards will prove a triumphal course from coast to coast. The baiid Will play in Eu gene under t-hc auspices of the as sociated students at McArthur court on May 2. Unique in its history and in the estimation in which it is held by contemporary European composers and musicians, this organization came across the Atlantic in March by permission of the Belgian gov ernment and under the patronage of King Albert and Prince Albert de Eigne, Belgian ambassador to the United States. The symphonic band is one of the oldest musical groups in Europe, having been established in 18111 ns the musical unit of the famous Regi ment. des Chides, which played' so important a part in the struggle for Belgian independence. With the ex ception of the period of the World War, during which the Regiment des Guides was in active service, it has been continuously stationed at Brus sels* as a .guard of honor for the king. "While the hand of the Koval be I gian Guardi) lias always been noted for its excellent musicianship, it was not until comparatively recent years that it been rite known as the symphonic band because of its ex traordinary repertoire of transcrip tions of symphonic music. Today its reputation throughout Europe is ■of the highest, and it has received the commendation of such distin guished composers as Ravel, Stravin sky, Milhaud,' Prokofieff, Honegger and Casella. Captain Arthur Provost, who has conducted the symphonic baud for the last 1-1 years, is a graduate of tiie Brussels conservatory. Recog nized as a fine violinist, he gave up a possible career as a concert artist in order to serve as the director of the royal band. He at once set to worfc to develop the organization in orchestral technique. He has trans scribed more than 100 orchestral ' scores, ranging from the classics to the works of the radical moderns. It is, thanks to his "admirable mu sicianship and to the skill of the musicians under his command, that 1 he repertoire of the symphonic band includes such difficult com positions as Stravinsky’s “Pe trushka.” On the programs of the symphonic band are found the 1) minor sym phony of Franck, the “Eroiea” symphony of Beethoven, Mendels sohn’s “Reformation” symphony, the prelude to “Hie Meistersinger,” Beethoven's overture to “Eginont” and other masterpieces heretofore confined to orchestral concerts. Nebraska Professor Designs Map Device LINCOLN, Xebr.— (II’ and Daily Nebraskan)—Professor K. E. Lack ey, of the University of Nebraska department of geography, has tie signed and constructed a map pro jection apparatus with which the meridians and parallels on the curved surface of a globe may be projected onto a flat surface. Into the various nets of meridians and parallels may then be drawn the outlines of continents, countries or states as desired. Orthographic, stereographic and globular* networks may be shown on both equatorial and polar projec tions. The apparatus works equally well in demonstrating the conical and cylindrical projections. Since maps occupy such an im portant place in modern education, it is felt that a knowledge of the advantages of the maps made on the various projections is essential. Students at Franklin Study Baptist History FRANKLIN, Ind.—(IP)—The In diana Baptist convention recently asked the history department of Franklin college to prepare a his tory of the Baptist church in In diana, for use at the centennial of the organization of the convention, to be hold in 1933.
