Receives Watch
For Band Service
While loyal Nebraska supporters
stood bareheaded during the sing

halves of the Iowa-Nebraska game
Saturday, the military department
expressed the gratitude of the
campus to William "P.illio" Quick,
retiring bank director. As a tribute
to "Billie's" 20 years of devoted
service to the building of a fine
military band. William Crittenden,
cadet colonel, presented him with
a gold pocket watch.
When the varsity band reached
the center of the field during then
regular game maneuvers, they
formed an N faring the student
cheering sections. On the grid
Iron in front of the band stood
ex-Director Quick, Quick's succes
sor, Band Director Lvle Welch, and
Colonel Crittenden who presented
the gift.
Quick, who has been affection
ately nicknamed "Billlc" by his
band members since his ansump

1918, was forced to relinquish his
work because of a prolonged illness
which he suffered last winter. He
still retains, however, one connec
