SIDNEY WOODS
TOCALL SIGNALS
AT UNIVERSITY

TUCSON, Sept. 4-Sidney Woods,
10, Yuma, junior, probably will call
the signals for the 1886 University
of Arizona football squad, Coach Tex
Oliver indicated today.
Oliver said he was basing his
judgement on the 155-pound youths
performance at the close of the
spring training season.
Last year, Woods proved himself
a capable quarterback, but this
season, Oliver has decided to switch
him to the left halfback job.
The University announced that
the Wildcats uniforms this year will
be made of blue 'lastex'' instead OF
the moleskin previously used. Their
helmets will be white with narrow
blue stripes across the top. Numbers
will be printed on front and back
of jerseys.

FARM ACCOUNTING
REVEALS LESSONS
Principles of Sound Business
Management That Apply
to All Farms

An analysis made OF detailed rec
ords kept by group of Wisconsin
farms revealed several important
lessons and the principles of sound
business management derived from
them apply equally we'll to other
farms, says an article in the 3ulle-
tin of the Agricultural Commission
Of the American Bankers Associa-
tion. The article says:
Investment costs, including in
terest, depreciation. repairs, taxes
and insurance, are approximately
two-thirds of all farm costs. Fur
thermore, these costs are largely
Independent of the production pro-
gram of the farm.
"This means that if farmer cuts
his production of crops or livestock,
he increases his investment costs
per unit of product produced. as a
smaller number of units must then
carry as large an expense load as
before. This illustrates the impor-
tance, from the standpoint of costs,
of operating farm at or near Ca
pacity.
Investment mistakes are more
costly than many others because
they cannot easily be corrected. If
farmer pays too much for his
farm, his investment costs will be
abnormally high as long as he owns
it. If he constructs a $4,000 barn,
when a $4,000 barn would have
served his purpose. he will have ex-
cessive barn costs, year after year,
during the entire service life OF the
structure.
"This emphasizes the Importance
of knowledge of investment values
and the specific investment require
ments of individual farms.
Determining Real or False Economies
"In working for greater economy,
it is essential that the farm mana
ger be able to distinguish between
real and false saving. This can
be done only through careful esti-
mate of the contribution to income,
over period of time. of each item
Of expenditure. Only if more is
saved in expense than will be lost in
income, can contemplated cut in
expense be designated as a real
saving.
"For example, dropping dairy
herd Improvement work may result
in a yearly expense reduction The
question to decide is what effect the
dropping of this work will have on
the present and future income from
the dairy herd. If the estimated loss
in livestock receipts due to a low
cred efficiency in feeding and breed
ing is greater than the original saw
ing, then it would obviously be a
false economy"

from eight to sixteen, played

agreed on a 1909 score, the only
perfect one ever made. have
never heard the selection per-

unlike symphony orchestras,
which usually rely on subsidies
from wealthy patrons. bands have
to make their own way. Thus
they exist only because the public
wants them to, and they play the
music that the public demands,
rather than the music a financial
backer thinks they should play.

lar interest In band music there

tivity. Just as folk music of the
Middle Ages brought men and
women together for great singing
meets, so does the organization of
town and county bands, like the
movement now taking place, open
a truly national avenue of musical
expression"
An authority in the field Of band
music, Arthur Pryor was profess
sional musician as a mem ber Of
his fathers band in st. Joseph,
Mo-, at the age of six. He was
for eleven years assistant conduc-
tor and trombone soloist with
Sousa and has led his own inter.
nationally famous band for more
than 30 years. He is well known
as composer. probably the great.
est trombOnist of all time and as
the successor to the mantle Of
Sousa, since the latter's death.
He and Sousa, more than any
others, were responsible for the
development Of the band from
military or brass band instrument
tation to the fine concert organi-
zation it is today.
AS one evidence of the revived
interest in band music, Mr.. Pryor
is currently featured in a radio
series, "Cavalcade of America, in
Music" tracing the origin and de-
velopment of band music in Amer
lea. The surest sign of America
great new interest in band music,
he says, is the fact that there are
today more than $4,000 bands in
American schools and colleges
alone, each fully organized with 35
or more members and a library.
and thousands of community,
industrial and organization bands.
"There is much outstanding tai
ent being developed among these
young musicians" Mr.. Pryor COM
ments. "An annual contest is held
for them. the winner playing be-
