FOR INFORMATION AND Star Spangled Banner The original title of the Star Spangled Banner was ‘"The Defense of Fort McHenry.” It was written in 1814 by Francis Scott Key, a lawyer of Frederick, Md., who as a visitor on board a British vessel in Baltimore had witnessed the British bombardment of Fort Mc Henry. The words, sung to the air of ‘‘Anacreon in Heaven,” at once gained popularity as a national lyric. It was not officially made the national anthem until more than 100 years after it was written. On March 3, 1931, approval was given an act designated “the composition consisting of the words and music known as "The Star Spangled Ban ner’ as the national anthem of the United States of America." When the national anthem is played, all those present should stand and face toward the music; civilian men should stand at attention, removing their hats. Men in uniform should salute at the first note of the an them, retaining this position until the last note is sounded.
