Ohio University Band Transformation Through 1929 Transfusions
Athens readers learn how the Ohio University Band revived in 1929 after two pivotal injections of support. Raymond Connett and Homer Baird helped found the early group, Curtis Janssen became bandmaster, and President E. B. Bryan supplied instruments. Convocation concerts began that year and the band grew to about 110 in marching, 60 in concert, and 70 in the B band.
