Solo Will ;Be Given
Michigan's 80-piece Varsity Con-
cert Band will present its annual;
Spring Concert at 8:15 p.m. Tuesday,
April 27, in Hill Auditorium under
the direction of Prof. William D. Re-
velli. There will be no charge for
admission.' -
The program will open with the
overture, "Oberon," by Carl M. von
Weber. Next will be a tone poem,
"Message of the Chimes," by Carle-
ton L. Colby. This piece describes
the memories that the distant chimes
bring back to the Weary Wanderer
of the quiet Sunday mornings of his
youth. The chimes remind him how
he has disregarded the teachings of
his youth. .
Will Present Concert Trio
Everett Kisinger, '37SM, Max Mit-
chell, Grad., and Louis Vanmannen,
'39, will present a cornet trio, "Flir-
tations," by Herbert L. Clarke and
"Caprice" by Forest Buchtel. Clarke'
was formerly solo cornetist in John
Philip Sousa's band.
Then, before the intermission, the
entire band will give a Spanish Suite,
"In Malaga," by Frederic Curzon.
This suite, the most ambitious work
to date of the young British com-
poser, is written in the truest Span-
ish idiom.
A nocturne from "Two American
Sketches" by Thomas Griselle will
also be presented. The nocturne's
richness of harmony is considered
both pleasing and effective.
Is Second Formal Concert
After the intermission, the band
will portray "Slavonic Rhapsody No.
1" by Friedman. Then Eldor Pflug-
hoeft, '40, will present a flute solo.
The band will close the program
with a descriptive piece, "Les Deux
Petits Japonais," by Charrosin and a
Manx tone poem, "Mannen Veen,"
by Haydn Wood. This latter work is
founded. on four Manx folk-songs
taken from the Isle of Man. y
This concert will be the second
formal concert the Concert Band
will give this year. The band's new
set of chimes will be featured in the
"Message of the Chimes."

2 Thuos Loot
Village Bank
Of_$10,000
DETROIT, April 20.-)--Two
robbers whose departure was speeded
by a flood of tear gas from an alarm'
system looted the Depositors' State
Bank of Northville of $10,000 at noon
today.
They changed automobiles at the
Ioutskirts of Detroit and continued
their flight. A third man waited in
an automobile outside the bank. A
fourth man was in the motorcar to
which the trio transferred at six-
mile road and police assumed he, too,
was an accomplice.
The gas attack was set off by W.
J. Schriemer, of Grand Rapids, a
state bank examiner, as he lay on
the floor behind the counter. He
seized the first opportunity to touch
the trigger as the robber who had
been scooping currency from the cash
drawers into a canvas sack turned
his back.
Gas spurted from eight jets about
the banking room and the robbers
fled, coughing and with streaming
eyes. The eight persons who were
in the bank when the robbers entered
also were forced to leave.
The two robbers entered the bank
quietly. Then they produced pistols.
One of them stepped to the teller's
window where A. Russell Clark was
receiving a 4eposit from Miss Frances
Cousins, a Michigan Bell Telephone
Co. employe.
"Take it easy," he said. "It's a stick
up."
Then he seized the money that Miss
Cousins was depositing.
The robbers ordered all persons in
the bank to lie on the floor. One of
them went behind the counter, trans-
ferred the currency from the cash
drawers to his money sack, then or-
dered Clark to open the vault. Clark
convinced him the vault was operated
by a time clock and could not be
opened.
and the other Scandinavian coun-
tries this Thursday evening at 8 p.m.
in the small ballroom on the second
floor at the Union. Professor Erick-
son will supplement his talk with
slides. Following the program coffee
will be served. ,
Red Cross Life Savers and Exam-
iners: The Red Cross field represen-
tative will be in Ann Arbor on May
10, 11 and 12 to give the course of
instruction for Red Cross Swimming
and Life Saving Examiners.
Until May 10, on each Monday and
Wednesday evening from 7:30 to 9
p.m., there will be a supervisor at;
the pool in the Michigan Union to
help any men interested in review-
ing the Senior Red Cross Life Saving
