COLUMBIA COLLEGE BAND
COLUMBIA COLLEGE BAND. In September 1934, Samuel C. DOVI was named the director of the band. At the first student assembly of the year, a call for musicians was made. Dovi was not new to the position. He had served as the director from 1922-1925. Beginning in 1928 he had been the director of the Columbia Academy Band which would continue to be a separate organization, although Dovi announced he planned to combine them for special occasions.
