Army band which k appearing here on the nineteenth of this month holds records that are very unusual for an organisa tion of it's kind, reports which have been received here indicate. Not only dees it’s duty demand that it officiate at diplomatic fun ctions at the White House, but it also has to be present at ail Army occasions at the Capital. In its history the U. S. Army Band has broadcast farther and to more millions than any other nAw col military organization. It was the first bnn^'io broadcast from the Atlantic to the Pacific, th oc casion being the radio hook-up broadcast i i c ceremonies attending the decoration of Colonel Charier, A. Lindbergh by President Cool- idge, at Washington, D. C.

The Aggies lost no time in re suming their work to develop a powerful running attack to com bine with an aerial offense second to none for use against the line ramming Hawkeyea, who adhere closely to the style of play ®aed extensively in the Big Ten confer ence And the Aggies, for the sec ond time in as many week-ends will face a foe which boasts of both a heavier line and bockfieM than their own. However, the ad vantage in weight of the Iowa team will not be as much as that of the Tulane Green Wave. Coach BeR's battlers succeeded in holding in check, and outplaying a line which outweighed them ap proximately 18 pounds to the man. Since the difference in weights of the lows forward wall as com par ed to that of the Aggies ia only about four pounds per man, the experienced Aggie veterans should find little trouble in o\erceraing the apparent Hawkeye advantage. The Aggie starting baekfield, which will probably be composed of Me-; adden, Aston, Hewitt, and Graves wlil also be a trifle lighter than that of the lowans by some four pounds difference also. Ia the list of startiag backs for the Hawkeyea are three proven line plungers in captain Oliver San- sen. Ran da hi Hickman, and Jerome Kris. Sansen plays at the fallback, position while Hickman and Kite are halfbacks. With Saasen and Krit running interference, for which they are apparently famous in the Big Ten conference, Hick man alone crashed through the mighty Nebraska forward wall f*r 162 yards last season. Of the Hove® positions in the line-up, only, five have been vir tually cinched on the entire Iowa team. Other than Saasen, Hickman and Krte the regulars are James Dee. tackle and Edward Dolly at f guar(|. Both.of thoaf men a^o vet erans of previous campaigns and proven ability; However, there in a poateMbty that Dolly may bo shifted to the pivot position, in which be played in part of the 19B0 campaign, to replace Marcus Mag- auiwen, capable veteran Iowa cen ter who will likely be out for sev eral weeks because of an injury received in a tooent scrimmage.
