ARCHIE M. dON&SAt the head of the Music Department of the University of Idaho isArchie M. Jones, who came here from Minnesota in 1935. Mr. Joneshas charge of the Vandaleers and an a cappella choir, which is hisbrain-child. Ably assisting Mr. Jones is George Stump, who also isfrom Minnesota. But singing can't go on without accompaniment,so we have Carl Claus, who has been the director of the IdahoSymphony Orchestra for fourteen years, and has one of the finestof student orchestras in the Northwest. Nor would the MilitaryBand be such a fine aggregation were it not for the flashing batonof Robert M. Lyon, who changed the tooters from "monkey suits"into gay blue-and-gold band uniforms. Our pipe organ gaveHall Macklin a vent for a talent which he possesses, besides hisfine piano playing and instruction in piano at the University. TheMisses Miriam Little, Velma Gildemeister, and Bernice Barnard,all of whom have studied abroad, instruct the instrumental aspirantsat the University of Idaho.PAGE 156
