It was just 50 years when Old Main was a barracks dormi tory and male students took four years of military tactics, the Commandant of Cadets, Capt. T. H. Taliaferro, was making his Sunday morning inspection of the barracks when he noticed a bugle hanging on the wall of George Deike’s room. As a result of a demonstration of his bugling ability, Capt. Tali aferro had him appointed chief musician; consequently, he was authorized to organize a bugle corps if qualified members could be found. Thus, by October 1, 1899, the Cadet Bugle Corps was ready to operate with the following per sonnel: buglers, George H. Deik ’O3, E. E. Godard ’O3, Percy M. Snoeberger ’O3 and Edwin R. Norris ’O3; bass drum, John M. Craig ’01; and snare drujm, Fred P. Dodge ’O3.

Of course, the all-male, all-College group was somewhat altered; in that, coeds, high school students and even the faculty helped fill in the empty spaces. In honor of this 50 year suc cess story, the Blue Band is stag ing an historical review at .the Penn State-Nebraska game, But . one thing most spectators won’t 'think about is the careful plarining behind that streaks of blue dashing down the field.

A VIEW of Ihe new Lutheran Student Center located, at ,W. College avenue.

The new building, located on West College avenue next to the Grace Lutheran Church, is the re sult of four years of joint plan ning by the National Lutheran Council and Central Pensylvania Synod. In 1945 the Council and Synod purchased the property adjacent to Grace Lutheran Church. The house there was used as a tem porary student center for two years. The building is of red brick making charts and plans. Then, the band itself goes into' an in tensified training period, on ma neuvers which would do justice to Napoleon, in the six days pre vious to the game. Prof. Fishburn inaugurated the fast marching pace for which the Blue Band has become noted. .The rate of the 'band, as it marches down the field, is 148 to 152 steps per minute, which is quite fast "in comparison with the 120 steps per minute regular marching cadence. It has been rumored that the football team is composed of boys who aren’t fast enough to make the Blue Band.
