specifically men tioned hobart as one of the teams that buffalo should beat to this effect jim bond has been conducting some hard secret practico sessions that when the boys do go down to geneva they certainly should be prepared to give one rough battle university band to accompany grid men to geneva saturday though agreeably surprised by buf fajo's strong gridiron aggregation the alumni who turned out for the hamil ton contest on homecoming day were more impressed by the university band than by any other one thing that the university of buffalo which ranks with institutions of doubtful prestige in i'ootball should be able to produce a university band of the size and quality of the present organization excited much favorable comment from the old grada the university band has proved it self such a source of spirit at the home games that through the co-operation of the athletic association it will make the trip to geneva this saturday in a bus so as to be on hand for the | hobart game every student in whom there is latent the least bit of u b spirit should follow the team to geneva and help win the hobart game pew if any of the schools that ara rated in u b.'s class can boast of any band at all let alone such a splendid musical organization as the 1923-24 band in all tho band numbers nearly thirty pieces at all the home games it has been much in evidence lending t real college atmosphere to the var sity contests in arousing spirit and l>ep among the students at these games the band has been invaluable on other occasions has the band proved its value as a vital factor in university affairs on student's day the parade was headed by the u b liand if the student body had dis iiyed the spirit exhibited by the id ou that as well as on other ocea ns the students day parade would ra gone down in u b history as an nt of great proportions bigger and better than ever is ihrase that is often used about u.b ivities without due consideration to the facts in the cases but to describe present university band as bigger i better than ever would be to put it dly the band like the other musical or ganizations is under the capable direc tion of one of the hardest workers in the university for student activities dr a b lemon it is gratifying to know that his untiring efforts to get men out for the musical clubs is meet ing with success as the turn out for the

show their wares fighting all through all sessions of the fracas the bisons amply demonstrated their prowess against as redoubtable a foe as the strong hamil ton contingent in fact so eager were both teams for a victory and so hard did they fight that in some portions of the game playing developed into furious frcefor iill fighting in which rough playing and fistruffing took place it was only the rough play and the exceedingly faulty rulings of the re feree that spoiled the effect of the 7 to 6 u b victory attended by some of the poorest officiating ever witnessed on the bailey lot the
