Continued from rage IL
in 1909 to head the army's Ninth
Cavalry Band stationed at Doug
las.
He graduated as valedictorian OF
his class at Alabama AIM College,
Normal, Ala, and began tWo-year
liberal arts course at Kittrell Col
lege, NC, before volunteering for
army service.
Hammond served in the Span
ish-American War, and in World
Wars I and II, heading bands in
the Ninth and Tenth Cavalry, and
the 25th Infantry Regiment before
retiring in 1912 to reside in Phoe-
nix.
In 1912, officers and men of the
Ninth Cavalry contributed funds to
pay his way through the Royal
Military School of Music in Lon
don, where he observed British
army band organization and COM
mandS. :.
On the eve of the Ninth's de-
parture for the Philippines in 1914,
grateful citizens of Douglas, who
had enjoyed the bands appearances
there, gave Hammond diamond
studded gold medal.
TIE taught music at Alabama
AIM and was a guest instructor
in 1926. at Tuskegee Institute, Ala.
Hammond has been identified
with many civic functions and or
ganizations, among them the Me-
gro Elks Lodge, and fund raisiny
with the late DR.. Fred C. Homes
to organize the Phoenix Urban
League.
For 10 years, he was a member
of the Phoenix Housing Authority,
and one of it's representatives at
national housing meetings in Bos-
ton, New York, Milwaukee, and
Washington. He also served on
the citizens committee which re-
vised the city charter, and the citi-
zens tax study committee, whose
report resulted in ending certain
service taxes paid by some business
places here.
His daughter, Mrs. B. H. Greven-
berg, is a teacher in the Phoenix
Union High School system.
Hammond said he was accepting
the board candidacy because of re-
quests by friends and civic leaders
that he offer his services particu-
larly in view of his experience in
race relations.
