Page 6 THE BATTALION WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 16, 1974 Band gets instruments The Army ROTC pi-ogram has furnished 43 new musical instru ments for the Texas Aggie Band. The instruments are authorized allowance from Army ROTC sup ply for the TAMU detachmment, noted Col. Thomas R. Parsons, commandant. S. Sgt. Everett J. King, Army detachment supply sergeant, handled requistions and turn-in of dated equipment. Almost all the instruments have been delivered and will be in use during the spring semester, an nounced Maj. Joe Haney. “Some of the equipment we had couldn't be played,” the Aggie Band director added. “It was 20 years old.” Part of the 300-member band volunteered to return early for the spring semester to play at the Tuesday A&M-SMU basketball game. The instrument issue includes three snare drums, two euphon iums, two piccolos, three French horns, four trombones, eight trumpets, one bell lyre, 11 clari nets, two tenor saxophones, two baritone saxophones, two also sax ophones, two Sousaphones and a flute. “We are indebted to Sgt. King for his work in helping us get the allotted instruments from the Army for the ROTC band,” Haney said. “As many of our instruments are in need of repair and many are at the stage of needinng to be replaced, the Army horns will go a long way toward improving the proficiency, intonation and sound of the band,” he added.

They can handle responsibility, but sometimes their spirits sink. Cares can overtake a man. That’s when he reverts into an unhappy, discouraged little boy. At times like these, his wife must strive to help, to understand. A wise wife knows that the Church offers an answer to their problems. At church hope and faith are common, and friends abound. There is something in regularly going to church that gives a person perspective, strength and faith.
