Series today,
WJR Will Carry Program
Of Morris Hall Studio;
Revelli Will Conduct
Presenting the first in a series of
regular Thursday programs, the Uni-
versity Concert Band under the direc-
tion of Prof. William D. Revelli will
play a 25-minute broadcast at 5:10
p.m. today over station WJR, De-
troit, through the studios in Morris
Hall.
Opening this first weekly program
will be Saint-Saens' "March Hero-
ique," followed by a Chorale and
Fugue by Bach-Abert. The program
will be concluded with the playing
of Alford's Army March.
Although this is the concert band's
first radio appearance this year, it
has already played its inaugural con-
cert, having appeared at the annual
Varsity Night show held October 28
in Hill Auditorium.
Also scheduled for the concert band
before the Christmas holidays are a
concert in Jackson on Tuesday, Dec.
9, and the annual Christmas concert
in Hill Auditorium the following
week.
Although a great many good men
are not back this year, Professor
Revelli reports that he has every ex-
pectation of achieving the same de-
gree of perfection this year as last,
when conductor Edwin Franko Gold-
man judged the Michigan band the
"outstanding college band in the na-
tion."
Together with the regimental band,
the concert band replaces the March-
ing Band, which is active only during
the football season.

the perfection of their equipment,"

Dance lines like these are one-two-three kicking today in prepara-
tion for the 1942 Mimes Opera, "Full House."
Chest and Awakened Rameses, played
only to Ann Arbor audiences. The
sixth, Contrarie Mary, was invited by
some alumi to play in Chicago and
was so well feceived that Model
Daughter was demanded for the next
year's trip.
Beginning Of Trip
This was the beginning of the an-
nual trip. The 1915 All That Glitters
show, played in other Michigan cities
as well and in the war years the
shows went to Fort Camp Custer, at
Battle Creek.
In 1921 the Opera season was shift-
ed from spring to December and

Michigan, Ohio, Indiana and Illi-
nois during Christmas vacation.
1923 was the banner year in Union
Opera history. Cotton Stockings
played in Ann A'bor, Toledo, Bif-
falo, New York, Philadelphia, Wash-
ington, Pitts\trgh, Cincinnati, In-
dianapolis, Cicago, Grand Rapids,
Saginaw, Flint, Bay City and Detroit.
The show grossed almost $100,000
with a profit of $30,000 and played
before 40,000 persons. It was Cotton
Stockings which set the record of
income for an amateur production
at New York City's Metropolitan Op-
era House, grossing $6,000 for a one-
night stand.
Many of the Michigan songs which
U. of M. students sing today are prod-
ucts of past Operas. "College Days"
came from Koanzaland, "When Night
Falls Dear" from Michigenda. "The
Friars Song" from Contrarie Mary
and "Men of the Mdize and Blue"
from Tres Rouge of 1916, are but a
few of the many Opera songs written
by students.
