June Graduates, Guests Will Hear Concert by Band

The University Band will play at Commencement for the first time in the history this year.

Familiar red-coated figures on the fall gridiron, the bandsmen will provide music for the processional and ceremonies in Tercentenary Theater on June 5, and will take part in the parade to the Yale baseball game on June 4 as part of the Class Day festivities.

Tuneups for the Commencement debut are a performance for the veterans at Cushing General Hospital in Franmingham today and at Bedford Hospital last Thursday. Patients at Bedford are chiefly mental cases from world War I, and doctors, termed their response to the band's concert "exceptional." It is an audience that usually does not respond at all to entertainment, and staff representatives.

Album Again Available

Copies of the band's Ivy League Album are again available at the Music Building this week for late buyers and men who had records smashed in the Jubilee weekend melee. Production delays caused the albums to arrive to Cambridge too late for distribution in the Houses.

Members of the band will converge on Memorial Hall this afternoon at 1 o'clock in full uniform with red coats, gray trousers, and all the trappings to embark in a body for the Cushing concert.
