Band oh Band
AI! Ye Brasses
A University band is being
formed to toot the mighty men of
Oregon to victory, but more
lusty-lunged students are needed^
in the brass section.
Although the band is of. suffi
cient size for concert work, John
H. Stehn, acting dean of the
school of music, stated yesterday
that there is a critical need for
trombones, snare drums, and
other brass instruments, if our
enthusiastic rooting sections are
to receive the proper support.
“ Any fellows or girls wrho are
able to help relieve this short
age are urged to dust off their
loyalty and sign up for the one
hour band course.
Appointments are not neces
sary to see Mr. Stehn who will
be in his office at the music
building during school hours,
except at four o’clock on Tues
day and Thursday when he may
be found in the ROTC building
band room.
Eugene native: How do you lik^

Eugene visitor: It’s the first
cemetery I’ve seen with lights in
it.
