This year will mark Re- velli's 27th year as director of University bands. Drum Major William McCann, '64M, will begin his fourth year as Michigan's "man up front." The 185-piece band performs for all home football games and pep rallies. Also, it usually ac- companes the team on two out-of- town trips each year as guests of a major auto company. In recent years the marching band has per- formed for high school football games during their travels with the varsty. The band organization exists only during football season, or "marching band season" as the musicans call it. Just as the foot- ball team reports early to school in the fall, so does the band. Dur- ing the week before classes begin, an intensive practice session on both marching and music is held, and it is for a balance between these two facets that the band strives to maintain throughout the season. After the semester begin, re- hearsals and drills are held daily Monday through Friday from 4:15 to 5:45 p.m. at Wines Field. A final dress rehearsal, which attracts many high school bands, is held at 9 a.m. before each home game. Bilik Arrangement The shows feature the original and imagnative music of Jerry H. Bilik of the music school. His ar- rangements of the opposition's fight songs especially highlight out-of-town performances. Another interesting feature of the band is their uniforms, new last year. The widely-used cross- belts were stripped in favor of a vestee embodying a "M." The blue and gold capes were continued and represent the school colors (maize and royal blue) on the otherwise black and white uniforms. The vestee, cadet-type caps, and spats are all made pf white plastic. By removing all white accessories, the uniforms may then double for concert use. The uniforms cost about $120 apiece and were paid for by. a spe- cial band fund. New also last year were 12 white, fiberglass tubas. Much lighter than the conventional metal horns, they make'it possible for the tuba play- ers to more easily perform their dance to the fight song after each Michigan. score. Honor Students At Convocation Students who have been chosen' for their excellence in overall ac- tivities and in academic achieve- ment will be honored at the an- nual honors convocation in early May at Hill Auditorium. THE BELL-The Michigan Marching Band entertains football crowds at the Stadium and away with its lively marching, intricate formations and sparkling music. The band, considered one of the finest of its kind in the United States, practices during orientation week and six days a week during the football season. BROsssDERsVIEW American education was sud- denly shocked into an all-out movement for improvement when the Soviet Union successfully launched its first Sputnik in 1957. Doing their part, educators and administrators at the University became concerned that "mass edu- cation" would result in mass med- iocrity, and initiated plans for the establishment of an honors pro- gram at the University.. Prof. Robert C. Angell of the sociology department, head of the honors program until September, 1960, viewed it as an opporunity which would "give students who are capable of absorbing a broad- er and deeper education." He was followed by Prof, Otto Graf of the German department. Invite 304) The program works this way: Approximately 10 per cent (300) of each freshman class is invited into the honors program after carefulhexaminationrand screen- ing. It is interesting to note that high school.grades receive the honors school or who express the desire to be in honors are some- times admitted. Currently, about eight per cent. of each class receives the four year honors program, Honor Courses . Working roughly the same as an excellerated coursein high school, honors classes are theo- retically more difficult than the courses given to students in "reg- ular" classes. Such honor classes' are offered by almost every de- partment in the literary college. Counseling received by honor students is considered somewhat superior to that. received in the regular literary college 'becautse each counselor andstudent be- come better acquainted and be- cause there is generally a greater enthusiasm among honors coun- selors than in regular offices. When the honor student reach- es his junior year, his work until graduation is done under the sup- ervision of the department in which he is concentrating. To re- ceive a honors degree in a major usually requires an over-all 3 average and 3.2 average in the field of concentration. All depart- ments in the literary college offer honor,.degrees. Honors Council To aid in guiding the program by planning social events and seminars, communicating com- plaints to the council, and helping advise on new programs for su- perior students, a student steer- ing committee is elected by the honors students each spring. The University alsohas estab- lished honors ..programs in tihe musio .and medical .schools. Re- cently, there has been the desire to extend the program to other schools and colleges, especially the education school, but no definite plans have been made. Call NO 2-3241 Drama Season To Announce New Series of Productions least amount of, consideration in the screening process because the grading systems and quality of education vary so much from school to school. - By the beginning of the second semester there is a shift in the population of the honor students. Freshman who are then well below the "standard of excellence" (a 3 average based on the 4 system) are asked to withdraw. Mean- U C"s"r s. nwhile, students who have earned a 3.5 and who are not in the The University of Michigan Newman Club a The Drama Season will an-J nounce the drama season late in the spring semester.
