Who Needed 76 Trombones?
"Celebrating the completion of their new band stand, the Corning Military Band of the first decade of the Twentieth Century posed on the Court Square lawn while the afternoon gathering of local fans took over the stand and filled it capacity.  Sunday afternoon practice sessions and concerts helped pass away the dull Sunday afternoon hours.  Identification, seated, left to right, Ed Hall, Curtis Black, Frank Grayson, Sam Hall, Ferd Phipps and Director W. W. Henry.  Standing, Sol Steinberg, Andy Bollenbacher, Dr. B. D. Tate, Charles Black, Charley Gage, unidentifed, Ed Stephens, Roy Boyd, George Boyd, Jim Bryant, Paul Oliver, and unidentified."
