8 BELL ARCHAEOLOGY BELLS OF THE BRITISH ISLES BY COUNTY (following, in general, the conventions of 'Dove's Guide for Church Bell Ringers' 10th edition, 2012 and its online version) Bells in England are followed by those in Ireland, Scotland and Wales, and finally those outside the United Kingdom, alphabetically by country. The Isles of Scilly, Isle of Man and Isle of Wight follow Hertfordshire, and the Channel Islands follow Cambridgeshire. Books dealing with a whole county or group or churches are listed first, followed by individual churches in alphabetical order of church rather than author 8.1 ENGLAND Bedfordshire Acc.

    THE YORKSHIRE ASSOCIATION OF CHANGE RINGERS Established 1875 NEWSLETTER – AUTUMN 2006 Editorial Welcome to this first edition of the YACR Newsletter, which we hope will appear in every tower of the Association via Branch Secretaries. The Production Team – Bob Cater and Anne Deebank – hope you find something of interest in this first, bumper Edition. As this is the first edition we would also be interested in your views – have we got the content right? Have you any suggestions for articles? Are you reading this in a tower which isn’t your own and you haven’t got one at your home tower? Let us know! The next edition will come out in the Spring, immediately after the AGM on 5 May. Please let either of us have copy by 15 April 2007. Bob Cater [email protected] Anne Deebank [email protected] President’s Message I am writing this newsletter introduction after spending an enjoyable day listening to two excellent peals rung at two of West Yorkshire’s best light sixes. (Clue 1 – both towers begin with an S. Clue 2 – I could have walked from one tower to the other along the Leeds-Liverpool canal.) Whilst listening to the ringing I got to thinking about why people ring bells and why they might attend Association events at both branch and full association level. When I was younger I attended Association meetings to have the opportunity to ring on new and different bells (and to get a tick in Dove!) and also to ring new and different methods that I did not have the chance to ring on a normal practice night.

A carillon is a musical instrument consisting of at least two octaves of carillon bells arranged in chromatic series and played from a keyboard permitting control of expression through variation of touch. A carillon bell is a cast bronze cup-shaped bell whose partial tones are in such harmonious relationship to each other as to permit many such bells to be sounded together in varied chords with harmonious and concordant effect.

    Joanne Droppers Collection Biography Joanne Was Born In

    Joanne Droppers Collection Biography Joanne was born in Ithaca, NY, on March, 29, 1932, the youngest child of Walter C. and Minnie W. Muenscher. She graduated from Cornell University in 1953 with a bachelor’s degree in music. It was at Cornell that she met and dated Garrett Droppers, who sang in the choir she directed. They were married in August 1953. She originally came to Alfred in 1961, when Garrett was appointed a professor of history at Alfred University. The couple had lived in Madison, WI, and Orono, ME, before settling in Alfred. In addition to being a housewife and mother to their three children, Joanne was employed periodically as an administrative assistant. Joanne loved playing piano and singing with her family. She was organist for several Episcopal congregations, a hand bell ringer, and played violin in local community orchestras. In 1976, she became a member of the American Guild of Carillonneurs and in 1977 she was appointed carillonneur for Alfred University, a position she held for 17 years. As Alfred University carillonneur, Joanne toured the United States and Canada, performing on many North American carillons. She also composed and arranged a number of songs for carillon, including Bach’s Suite #11 for Lute and Tubular Bells. One of her favorite tunes was the Oscar Meyer Weiner jingle, which she arranged for carillon and played at Alfred’s annual Hot Dog Day celebration. Garrett Droppers predeceased Joanne in 1986, and after her retirement in 1994, she moved to Arlington, VA, to be near her grandsons. While in Virginia, she continued her musical pursuits by playing carillons in the area.

    LOUGHBOROUGH ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND Registered Charity HISTORICAL SOCIETY No. 513032 Founded in 1955 AUTUMN NEWSLETTER 2012 Old Rectory Wins Heritage Award Three of the independent museums in Loughborough - The Old Rectory Museum, The Great Central Railway Museum and the Carillion War Memorial Museum - all expressed similar needs for support around managing their collections. A new partnership (Loughborough Museums Together Project) was formed with the help of Amanda Hanton, the Volunteer Development Officer for Leicestershire CC, to support them with this. The aim of the project was to recruit a new pool of volunteers to support Loughborough Museums and provide a comprehensive training programme to enable those new volunteers to fulfill all necessary roles; Modes, accessioning of collections, care of collections, labeling, documentation, photography etc A very successful event was held at Loughborough Library when 30 new volunteers of all ages and background were recruited. After visiting each museum the new volunteers indicated which one they would like to be involved with and those that chose the Old Rectory have been meeting there every Wednesday morning since January. Grants financed training, the purchase of a laptop and the MODES software, to enable the museum’s objects to be digitally catalogued, and the recruitment of a paid volunteer support worker who attended each session at each museum for six months giving advice on collections care and management. “Great introduction into museums work and what was going to be expected.” “Lots of team work, everyone works well and efficiently. Lots of interesting artifacts. Shows reality of ‘behind the scenes’ work in a small museum.” Objects have been cleaned (if needed), described, accessioned, index cards updated and information passed to the Modes imputers.
