— *. "We're trying to build a band the State of Maine 1 and university can be
proud of."
A New Kind Of Band Cuts Into The Sale Of Hot Dogs
To quote one of the soft-drink venders at Alumni Field a few weekends ago: “They don’t leave their seats at half-time like they used to.” One reason, of course, is the new corps of University Store Company food venders. Football spectators can purchase their hot dogs and popcorn from the prone posi tion without having to battle crowds at the concession stands underneath the bleachers. The other is the University of Maine “Marching One- Hundred Band.” It’s a vast improvement over anything that has performed during a half-time exercise here and, according to George Cavanagh, the man who directs it, is developing into one of the finest college marching bands in New England. “We are trying to build,” said Cavanagh, “a band the state of Maine and university will be proud of.” In 1965, when Cavanagh joined the university faculty as director of bands and assistant professor of music, ad ministration officials were on the verge of dropping Maine’s marching band. “Let’s just say it was at a low ebb,” remarked Cavanagh. The new band director didn’t let things stay that way, though. In 1966 he doubled the band’s membership from 43 musicians to a little over 80. And last year Cavanagh started laying plans to purchase new uniforms, designed especially for the university, and put some real enthusiasm into the half-time performances. This fall, a full four days before classes were scheduled to begin, almost 140 musicians, majorettes and baton twirlers reported for a special practice. The band is called “The Marching One-Hundred” be cause it suits up roughly 100 (actually 105 to make things come out even) musicians. Counting the baton twirlers, ma jorettes and drum major, there are 114 persons on the field. 5 rx. • \ \ * b *1 \ r 3V

In the span of 102 years 43,221 persons have passed through the University of Maine to obtain college degrees. Today the university’s active alumni community numbers 37,679, one half of whom have graduated after 1950. The growth of the Maine State College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts from 12 students and two faculty members to its present size and enrollment has been spectacular. It has been a unique partnership between the State of Maine and the university’s private supporters that has fostered this growth and the General Alumni Associa tion, since its founding in 1872, has played a vital and dynamic role in it. After voting to establish a state college in 1865, the Maine Legislature split badly over where to locate such a school and it was not until 1868 that the university actually opened its doors to freshmen. Students attended classes in converted farm houses and the school’s first president, Dr. Merritt Caldwell Fernaid, declared the col lege might have to get by solely upon donations and tuition for operational expenses. The first permanent campus building, Fernaid Hall, was not erected until 1870. State funds from the univer sity were scarce over the first half-century of the college’s history. Less than 4,000 students enrolled at the univer sity during its first 50 years. In the second half-century, better than 40,000 more enrolled and stayed. The General Alumni Association provided some of the energy that has spurred this second 50-year expansion. 7 I Alumni Hall, one of the earliest campus mainder of the school’s operating i buildings, was built in 1901 partly with budget. private subscriptions, but since the .University of Maine alumni are 1920’s alumni donations were respon scattered all over the world.

The Cop on Main Street... Frost-covered Elms along the Stillwater ... a Farm in Autumn ... The Fourth of July. Free-lance Photographer Evelyn A. Miles, wife of Dr. E. Kenneth Miles, professor of German at the University, captured these glimpses of Orono in a photo exhibit en titled “One Year In A Maine Town.” The 60-frame exhibit is on display in the Fogler Library. In January it will be shown in the Bangor Public Library and, next April, is scheduled to be displayed at the Farns worth Museum in Rockland. “Each of the photographs is representative of some facet of life in almost any Maine or New England Town. I have tried to create a total effect that is the Orono I know... where I have lived since 1933, when I came to the university as a freshman,” said Mrs. Miles. While the university has undergone tremendous expan sion in the past half-century, the sights and scenes of Orono, its home community, remain almost constant, un changed by the years.
