A Visitor in Seven Thousand Homes Each Week. The Most Widely Read Newspaper in Centre County. | ! SECOND SECTION @he Cenfre Democrat NEWS, FEATURES VOLUME 57 BELLEFONTE, PA., THURSDAY, APRIL 7, 1938. NUMEER 14. Frank L. Wetzler, who died at his home in Milesburg £:wnday morn- ing, was onc of Centre County's truly oustanding citizens, He wasnt known for his wealth, or for out. standing achievement In a business Op professional way. What endear- #d him to the hearts of hundreds was his work in his hobby-—music abd bands, But Jet him tell his story in his own words—words ex- pressed by the veteran bandmaster at the annual reunjons of his fam- ous Our Boys Band in 1932, 1633 and 1934, before band members’ wives were invited to the function and when Mr. Wetzler felt that he could speak to is “boys” as he did when they were youngsters fumbling over, the keys of thelr instruments “When I first began directing bands at the age of 1§ years, my fonglest ambition was to start out fa 4 tally-ho and tour towns and gities giving concerts in. each. com- minity free of charge. That dream neyer came true. but the loyalty and devotion of you boys for the past 20 years lias made that boy- hood ambition seem trifling. I have tried. to. lead wou right. T've had my reward, for hot one of you boys Lins, gone bad. Twenty years ago vou were al little fellows—and 1 &l- sayy wished you could stay that way. But in all these years not one of vou has ever given me a harsh word. and never have you been dis- obedient.” *1 can't preach a sermon, but there are times when I'd like to. 1 sant you always to remember that the things you do without pay are the ones that give you the most asuré and lasting satisfaction. Ken 1 am gone, remember what IVe triad to teach you. Don’t do anything you'd be ashamed to tell vour mother, and never forget that my greatest wish is that this band always. stays together without wrangling and ill-will” It is not difficult to understand why those who knew Frank Wetz- jer feel a sense of personal loss. He was known as “Dad” to band mem- bers, and never did a gn of boy have a more sincere. a more able and a more worthy foster-father Mr. Wetzler had several favorite band nwnbers, but the ore he most often expressed a fondness for was “Colonel Bogey.” At the 1032 re- union band members after the bane quet assembled in the practice hall and after a warm-up program, Mr Wetzler called for his favorite num- bet, admonishing the musicians 10 “Play It nice, boys.” We heard the band play “Colonel Bogey” that night, and always the mention of Frank Wetzler will call to mind the dimiy-lighted band : the chill of a March evening that even a large room stove could fot dispell; thé band + members. 4 heltersskelter In hastily chairs with coats and hats piled on benches along the walls: and most important, the smile on the director's fuce 8s he leaned "against a pedestal at the front of room Mstening fo “his boys” play it “nice.” We wish the Fish Commission eonld listén-in on some couversa- tions. we've heard during the past tio weeks, In a semi-public busi- ness place we heard one young man bragging about the two trout he took out of McCoy's dam the other evening: about tbe 18-inch brown trout he tried to hook In vain. . He went back the next morning to try to get the big one, but met a friend who hag already caoght it. This follow talked sbout trout fishing at this time of the. year as though whs legal. In fact. he bragged : t his prowess, while other ang- Jers who try to be at least half de- cent about obeying fish laws were foreed to stand by and bite thelr fingernails because they knew they couldnt get anywhere by turning in the self-confessed violator It would fiot be out of place for Belle. fonts sportsmen to DEMAND a full- time fish warden for jocal streams Under present conditions there is nothing to defer violations. and persons who fish Hlegally apparent. ly never even think a I the pos- gibility of a fish warden being around. .
