Premier Musical Group Result
of Seven-year Development;
Annual Tours Made
An event of unusual Interest for
music lovers of Lincoln was assured
Saturday when it was announced that
arrangements had been concluded for
the appearance here in concert of the
United States Navy Band. This fam
ous organization will be heard on
November 6 at the University Col
iseum, under the auspices of the Uni
versity of. Nebraska.
Development of the Navy Band
was begun some seven years ago and
the legislation establishing it as the
premier musical organization of the
nation's sea forces was approved by
Calvin Coolidge on the day he was
inaugurated President in his own
right, March 4, 1925. Prior to that
date it was officially attached to the
presidential yacht, Mayflower, and
had become a great favorite with the
Mate President Harding so great that
he took it with him on his memoraDie
trip to Alaska that was to have such
a sad ending in San Francisco.
Radio Concert Famous
It was on this tour that people as
far West as the Pacific Coast had
their first opportunity of hearing the
Navy Band, but since that time an

by the band that have earned it na

from Washington fully ten million
people having heard it on the air

as heard. There must be a personal
contact to make the band more than
a name, however inspiring or en
thralling its radio music may be.
Hence it is that the concerts on tour
have added so greatly to the popu-
