Two uniformed police officers stand in front of microphones, one holding a guitar and one holding an accordion. One officer's shoulder has a badge that says "Police, City of Milwaukee." Caption reads: MUSICAL MEN IN BLUE - The Milwaukee police department band held a concert and dance Wednesday in the Auditorium. Included in the 90 minute concert were numbers by Sgt. Arthur Rinderle on guitar and Patrolman Ronald Kleczka, accordion. Proceeds will be used to support the band, which receives no money from the police budget.
