table-top football field and decides

tation is the best from the spectator's
viewpoint. The location of each man

soons, which are unadaptable to grid-
ron performances. In general, the
brasses are decreased and the reeds
are augmented. The Concert Band
is equipped with a comprehensive li-
brary of symphonic literature.
Anong the activities in which the
bands participate are the all-campus
varsity show, the annual Christmas
program, the annual Winter Concert
in Hill Auditorium, the reading clinic
of the Michigan School Band As-
sociaton, various out of town con-
oerts, broadcast series over Detroit

4itorium,spring tour, community sing

cises.

basses, French horns, baritones,
rums, tympani, and glockenspiels.
These are issued to selected students,
upon order from the conductor, by
the equipment manager. Uniforms
are issued to all members of the Con-
cert and Marching Bands upon pay-
ment of $5 deposit to the University
cashier.

Michigan Has
Own Carnival
Michigras Raises Money
For CampusProjects
Loop-o-planes, ferris wheels, Fol-
lies Berserk, an Esquire Roof for
dancig, peanuts, popcorn, the din
of barkers, milling crowds-all these
go to make up Michigras, Michigan's

mammoth carnival which dominates
the campus each spring.
Founded three years ago to raise
funds for a women's swimming pool
and the band's trip to the Yale game
last fall, Michigras promises to be-
come a campus tradition. Hilarity
banishes all traces of pre-exam blues
each May as fraternities, sororities,
honor societies and independents
transform Yost Field House into a
pandemonium of booths, rides, noise
and fun.
Huge crowds turned out last year
to see a half-mile parade that herald-
ed the opening of the fair. Led by
the Varsity Band, the parade includ-
ed 45 floats, most of which heralded
sideshow attractions at the Field
House.
More than 8,000 students turned
out for the show Friday and Sat-
urday nights. There were more than
50 booths, and prizes went to those
operated by Phi Sigma Kappa and
Kappa Alpha Theta. Proceeds last
year went to the Women's Athletic
Association (for the swimming pool),
tle Band, the Glee Club and the
Dean's discretionary fund.

be held on afternoons of the following
