* Band at Irvine - The University band under the command of Captain Grover Creech, inaugurated the Victory Liberty Loan drive for Estill County at Irvine, Kentucky, last Saturday. The band left Lexington at 6:30 a.m. and after stopping to play at Winchester, proceeded to Irvine, where it was met by Virgil Chapman with about fifteen automobiles in which the band was taken over the county. The band was treated royally by the people of Irvine, who served not only breakfast and dinner to the band, but also furnished "dopes," smokes and the like. About $60,000 in bonds were bought by the people of Estill County after hearing the band play." - "The Kentucky Kernel." Vol IX, No. 20. Lexington, KY., April 24, 1919.
