"As played by any other than the
. Michigan Varsity band, 'The Victors'
is an ordinary. march. The finest of
the military and other bands cannot
play it like the boys ,f the campus,
for the spirit transforms the whole
effect of the tune," said Director Wil-
fred Wilson, of the Varsity band re-
cently. "Other bands playing the
march do not get the thrill that the
true Michigan man feels and so do not.
throw themselves heartily into the
spirit of it."
Director Wilson is proud of the
Michigan band and is anxious to make
it the best University band of the
country. As he sees it, the band .nas
only one rival at present and if that
one rival selected its men by competi-
tion, it would probably be outclassed.
"I am anxious to have competitive
matches with other college and uni-
versity bands," said Director Wilson,
"and if there are anty bands better
than the Michigan Varsity band I
would not hesitate to send my men
against them to determine which is
the best, for I am sure the Michigan.
boys would make a creditable show-
ing."

LIBRARIAN EMERITUS FINNET
ADVOCATES USE OF TOWER
TO HOUSE CHIES
One suggestion for a memorial to the
Michigan men who fell in the World
war is that of a clock tower or cam-
panile, to be placed on the present site
-f the flag-pole and to contain the
clock and. peal of bells which, at pres=-
ent, is located in the tower on the
engineering shops.
Reference Librarian Emeritus Byron'
A. Finney, '71, is an advocate of this
plan. In the May, 1919, issue of the
Michigan Alumnus there appeared an
article by Mr. Finney giying the his-
tory of the peal of bells from the time
they were given to the University in
-883 by President Andrew Dickson
White of Cornell, a former professor
of history at Michigan, and two other
men.
. Formerly in Old Library
This set of bells, known as the West-
minster' peal, was first installed in ihe
west tower of the old library building.
Two years later a clock was placed in
he tower and so arranged that the
1 our would be strutck upon the 'bells,
zutomatically and, at certain times
luring the day,. the bar of music
:nown as "Cambridge Quarters" would
*re played.
When the old library was torn down
to make way for the new building, the
)eal was moved to its present location
on the engineering shops, a rather
poor place for it due to the fact that
the tower is rather low for the pur-
iose.
Bells Rung by Hammers
The bells are rung by means of iron
hammers striking against the outside
on the lower rim or lip 'of the bell,
these hammers being connected with
the works of the clock by cables.

A VICTROLA

SIN do the work

No more delightful way to entertain' can be found than
with the music of. the Victrola. There is a kind to suit the
taste of every member of the family, every guest, every mood,
whim, or fancy-from the mastrpieces of opera interpreted by
the world's greatest artists to stirring bands by famous leaders,
and the latest hits of vaudeville.
Make your home resound with music this holiday season.
Come in and select your Victrola-on. convenient pay-
ments, if desired.

"More than 100,000 teaching posi-'
tions in the public schools of the
United States -are either vacant or,
filled by teachers below standard, and
the attendance at normal schools and
teacher-training schools has decreased
20 per dent in the fast three years," ih
the statement of Hugh Magill, field
secretary of the National Education
association.
Letters were sent out by the asso-
ciation in September to every country
and district superintendent' in thq
United StAtes. Signed statements were
received from more than 1,700 super-
iitendents, representing 238,573 teach-'
ing positions. These reported 'an
actual shortage of 14,685 teachers, or
slightly more than six per cent of the
teaching positions represented, and
23,006 teachers below standard, who
have been accepted to fill vacancies,:
or slightly less than 10 per cent..
It is estimated that there are 65'0,000
teaching positions in the public schools,
of the United States,' and if these
figures hold gqod for the entire coun-
try there are 39,,000 vacancies and 65,-
000 teachers below standard.
As a result of the recent employmenlt
canvass made by the University Y. M.
C. A., a number of steady jobs, open
to University students, have been
placed on the list. Men interested
should report to the employment
bureau at Lane Hall.
