\nJohn Philip Sousa's metamorphosis from civilian theater musician,composer and conductor to the Bandmastership of the U.S.MarineBand had also included a seven-year period begun in his youth whenhe was first an apprentice and then a musician in that organization.The field trumpet/bugle having replaced the fife as partner to thedrum for tactical commands in the field during the recent Civil War,Sousa siezed upon recent revisions of the calls-now expanded to67 in Upton's Infantry Tactics-to provide,at his own expense,abook that could raise the teaching of field music from the depthsof rote learning.His comprehensive little book contained all thebasics except dynamics,seemingly of no purpose here.  \nIn addition to the details of learning,Sousa's Book includedmarching tunes which he had composed as reward for the pedegogy.Just how successful the instruction manual may have been is notknown,but the success of one of its marching tunes,WITHSTEADY STEP,incorporated by Sousa in his great march for TheMarine Corps,SEMPER FIDELIS,as the first strain of the TRIO,guaranteed it immortality in military music.  \nMany years were to pass before the drum and bugle corps wouldbegin its phenomenal rise as an amateur pursuit after World WarI;meanwhile \"The Ancients\"in New England had preserved thecolonial fife and drum corps tradition presently enjoying rebirththroughout the country.  \nWilliam F.Ludwig's life-long(94 years)dedication to the art of therudimental drummer led him to the reprinting of Sousa's book in1954.All of us \"Rudimentals\"will be glad to see THE

suggested to the author the publication ofthis work.At the present time there is a lack of precision in the per-formance of the trumpet-signals of the Service,both as to intonationand division of time.The author has written a drum-part to thosesignals which are essentially\"garrison-calls,\"believing thatin branchesof the Service where the trumpet and drum comprise the field-music,there are obvious advantages in the combination of the two,in preferenceto the employment of the trumpet alone.  \nThe author's acknowledgements are due Mr.F.W.Lusby,DrumInstructor,U.S.M.C.,for contributions to
