The Band made its most frequent appearances at the College athletic contests. During the Fall the unit appeared at the football games and gave
a performance between the halves of every contest. During the basketball
season a special seating section was reserved for the Band. Its repertoire was
composed of spirited marches of the best American composers. The band of
thirty-five men under the direction of the Rev. Edward M. Catich presented
a trim military appearance when on parade, particularly at the head of the
Homecoming formation.
The Marycrest-St. Ambrose concert orchestra presented several concerts
during the year and supplied incidental music for numerous other programs
