Formed by a few visionary high school band directors from across Florida, the FBA sought to promote interest in high school bands and band contests during an era where few schools had bands but interest was growing, and to strengthen the professional standing of the state's band directors. The FBA sponsored a\nsingle State Festival for several years. In the late 1940's, the Festival became large enough that the state was divided into six geographical Districts, and District Contests were devised to serve as qualifiers for bands attending the State Contest. Since then, additional growth resulted in 10\nDistricts, then to 14, then to 15 in 1982, to 17 in 1987, and to 19 in 1995. There is still 19 districts.\nThroughout the years, the FBA has managed state- and district-level band festivals, clinics, and other events, ensuring that music remained in the public school curriculum and maintaining high musical standards for students. In 1966, the FBA completed an amicable merger with the Florida Association of Bandmasters, the equivalent organization for African-American schools\nprior to integration. The FABD had formed in 1941with Leander Kirksey as the first president. He was followed by George H. Hill (1955-1960) and James W. Wilson (1960-1966). Wilson later served as president of the FBA from 1974-1975. Early organizers and leaders of the FBA include some giants in the school band field, including first president Major Ed Chenette, P.J. Gustat, Browne Greaton Cole, and John J. Heney. For a complete list of presidents visit https://fba.flmusiced.org/about/history. FBA eventually became a component organization of the Florida Music Education Association.\nIn addition, the FBA had a relationship with the Florida High School Activities Association, from whom the FBA, and their associated events, received funding. John Joseph Heney, Sr. (1903-1978) was a percussionist, music educator, and historian. He played with numerous bands throughout his career, most notably the John Phillip Sousa Band during its final six years.

Formed by a few visionary high school band directors from across Florida, the FBA sought to promote interest in high school bands and band contests during an era where few schools had bands but interest was growing, and to strengthen the professional standing of the state's band directors. The FBA sponsored a\nsingle State Festival for several years. In the late 1940's, the Festival became large enough that the state was divided into six geographical Districts, and District Contests were devised to serve as qualifiers for bands attending the State Contest. Since then, additional growth resulted in 10\nDistricts, then to 14, then to 15 in 1982, to 17 in 1987, and to 19 in 1995. There is still 19 districts.\nThroughout the years, the FBA has managed state- and district-level band festivals, clinics, and other events, ensuring that music remained in the public school curriculum and maintaining high musical standards for students. In 1966, the FBA completed an amicable merger with the Florida Association of Bandmasters, the equivalent organization for African-American schools\nprior to integration. The FABD had formed in 1941with Leander Kirksey as the first president. He was followed by George H. Hill (1955-1960) and James W. Wilson (1960-1966). Wilson later served as president of the FBA from 1974-1975. Early organizers and leaders of the FBA include some giants in the school band field, including first president Major Ed Chenette, P.J. Gustat, Browne Greaton Cole, and John J. Heney. For a complete list of presidents visit https://fba.flmusiced.org/about/history. FBA eventually became a component organization of the Florida Music Education Association.\nIn addition, the FBA had a relationship with the Florida High School Activities Association, from whom the FBA, and their associated events, received funding. John Joseph Heney, Sr. (1903-1978) was a percussionist, music educator, and historian. He played with numerous bands throughout his career, most notably the John Phillip Sousa Band during its final six years.

The \"J\" in Fonelli's name stands for \"Jacobus\" in Roman, and \"James\" in English. He was the oldest of three brothers and two sisters. From boyhood, Fonelli had a great desire for art, and while in the Italian grade schools made his best grades in designing various objects. When he was about six years of age he told his father that he wanted to be a great artist. A little while later his father took him to Rome where he had some preliminary training in sculpture from a Roman Sculptor.","In June 1913, Fonelli had successfully convinced his aunt and uncle to take him to America, where he entered school, attending both day and evening classes to learn English. At sixteen, Fonelli obtained his first full-time job in a mechanical shop, while continuing school. He graduated from Bryant High School in Queens, New York and then entered Long Island City Technical School in Long Island, New York, becoming a first-class tool maker. At nineteen, Fonelli was admitted to Cooper Union Institute in New York to study intensively in Motor Vehicle Engineering, and passed his final examination with honors.","At twenty-three, Fonelli received his first United States mechanical patent in auto toys. Later he obtained a Canadian patent. Fonelli studied preliminary Aeronautical Engineering subjects at Daniel Guggenheim School of Aeronautics, at New York University. In 1927, Fonelli opened a small private school of Aeronautics in New York, known as Aviation Engineering School. He received a Government Instructor’s License for Airplane Ground Work and a Civil Aviation Act (CAA) license as Ground Instructor of Aircraft.","In 1947, Fonelli attended the University of California in Oakland, California and in 1951 entered Columbia University in New York to study architecture, art, and sculpture. He furthered his artistic education in Washington, D.C. at the American University and the Corcoran School of Art. He later became Captain for a Navy project and received patents for inventing the heart-shaped bed.","Fonelli married Cleo H. Neher, his second wife in December 1959. Over the course of his lifetime, he was an architect, artist, sculptor, educator, and creative inventor. Later on in life, Fonelli suffered from a severe heart attack from which he never fully recovered. On November 29, 1972, he passed away in Florence, Italy, but was buried in the United States at Mount Saint Mary Cemetery, in Flushing, New York.","Collection processed by Suphi Burak Ogreten; finding aid prepared by Suphi Burak Ogreten.

She was raised in Venice, Italy and emigrated to the U.S.A. in 1920 at age nine with her mother Elizabeth and sister Josephine. Her aunt Maria Mazzoni, Martin's sister, also accompanied them on the ship. They arrived at the Port of New York and immigrated through Ellis Island. They joined Leona's father Martin in Hazleton, PA where Martin had immigrated in 1910. ","She graduated from Hazleton High School in 1929 and from St. Joseph's Hospital School of Nursing in Reading, PA in 1932. She then worked as registered nurse at Pennsylvania State Hospital, Corrigan Maternity Hospital, and Public Health Clinic in Hazleton, PA. ","After her parents' deaths, she lived with her sister, Josephine and brother-in-law, Carmen, in 1938. Her two brothers, Vincent and Louis, also lived in the household. Carmen provided the house, Josephine was the homemaker, and Leona provided financial support to raise the two orphaned brothers. ","In 1942, Leona joined the U.S. Army as a lieutenant in the Army Nurse Corps and was assigned to the Army Air Force base at Key Field in Meridian, Mississippi where she met Francis Curie Skilling (1900-1968), a medical officer who had volunteered for the Army Air Corps in 1942. He had been a practicing ophthalmologist since 1935 in Miami, FL until his death in 1968. ","She was later assigned to MacCluskey General Hospital in 1944 and served in Texas and Bushnell, Utah for overseas training. She was attached to the 172nd Hospital Unit and later the 142nd Hospital Unit of the University of Maryland. She served in the CBI (China – Burma – India) theater in 1945. Her main station was in Calcutta, India in a colonial hospital leased from the British government and staffed by Americans. She served as an RN with the nursing unit.","While in India she flew to Karachi and Darjeeling on USAAF transport aircraft. She flew \"over the Hump\" (the Himalayas) and into Kunming, China. She was usually the only female on the aircraft (C-47s) when wounded soldiers were being carried.","During her tour of duty overseas, she corresponded with Major Francis Skilling. She also corresponded with her sister Josephine and her nephews Robert and John Gaudio, known as \"Bobby\" and \"Jackie\". She corresponded with her brother Vincent, who served as\tan enlisted man in the US Army Chemical Corps. \n    Vincent was sent to Hollandia, New Guinea where he developed a mysterious blood disorder in 1945. He was returned to the U.S. mainland in 1945 and entered Walter Reed Army General Hospital in Washington, D.C. for treatment. Some of his surviving letters to his sister Josephine make up part of the collection.","In 1945, Leona was reassigned to Walter Reed Hospital as a nurse and was allowed to help take care of her brother Vincent, who was dying. After his death on September 20, 1945, his funeral was held in Hazleton, PA at the local parish church.","Leona had been in touch with Francis C. Skilling, who was still assigned to the deactivated hospital at Key Field, MS. After he obtained leave, they reunited at his family's home in Chevy Chase, MD where she met his parents. They had been separated for nearly two and a half years. They then traveled by train to Pennsylvania where they were married on Monday, December 3, 1945.","He was assigned to Ft. Sill, OK as a medical officer where they lived until he was discharged from active duty in 1946. They returned to his previous place of residence in Miami, FL where he re-opened his private ophthalmology practice . They had three children who were born in Miami Beach, FL: Francis, Jr., Vincent, and Mary Emma.","Francis C. Skilling was born on August 26, 1900 in Chicago, IL and passed away on August 8, 1968 in Miami, FL. Leona passed away on May 6, 1997 in Tallahassee, FL. They are buried at Our Lady of Mercy Catholic cemetery in Miami, FL. Their children currently reside in Tallahassee (Francis), Clayton, GA (Vincent), and Washington, D.C. (Mary Emma Hotze). They are the donors of the Mazzoni/Skilling Collection to the Florida State University Institute on WWII and the Human Experience.  \nPrepared by Francis C. Skilling, Jr. on May 8, 2019. ","Transferred from the Institute on World War II and the Human Experience to FSU Libraries Special Collections \u0026 Archives in July 2022.","This collection contains letters, artifacts, photographs, and ephemera from Vincent and Leona Mazzoni's time served during World War II. Leona and Vince wrote letters to their sister, Josephine Gaudio, who saved all of these items. Both Vincent and Leona served in the Pacific Theater. Leona served in the U.S. Army Nurse Corps in the China Burma Indian Theater with the 172nd General Hospital and Vincent in the U.S. Army on New Guinea.","All requests for permission to quote, publish, broadcast or otherwise reproduce from manuscripts must be submitted in writing to the Associate Dean for Special Collections \u0026 Archives.

McClellan, also known as \"Smitty,\" was born in Grant, Florida October 18, 1918, she died October 25, 2013.  She was the last of 8 children. Her father homesteaded 160 acres on Mullet Creek.  Her brother, Charles Elmer Smith, was captured by the Japanese in 1941 on Wake Island. Viola wanted to do something to help bring him home so she enlisted in the Woman's Army Corp in 1942. \n \nViola attended basic training and Officers Candidate School in Des Moines, Iowa. She was commissioned a 2nd Lt in February 1943. She was sent to Spokane, Washington as Company Commander of 300 enlisted women and four other officers. This was the first company of WAC's in Spokane. From there Viola went to overseas training at Fort Oglethorpe in Georgia. Without knowing where they were going, 18,000 men and 500 women crammed onboard the refitted troopship RMS Queen Elizabeth sailing out of New York and headed for Europe. As they were debarking in Scotland, they announced the invasion of France (D-Day, June 6, 1944).\n \nThirty of the women including Viola were assigned to the 5th Army Airways Communication System based in London. They were the first WAC's to be assigned to the AACS in London and arrived just as the buzzbombs were bombarding. Viola's primary job was to establish living quarters for 30 enlisted WACs. The women were organized into a company that preformed teletype operations, worked as drivers and administrative specialists, censored outgoing mail among other duties. They worked long hours six days a week while dodging the V1s and V2s.\n \nViola met her future husband, Captain Dewey S. McClellan, at a dinner in Hyde Park for 60 AACS people. Both were Captains and both part of the AACS. Dewey was from California and Viola from Florida. They were married on July 1, 1945 at St Peters Church on Vere St. in London. Viola was able to get a wedding dress from the Red Cross. All AACS personnel in the London area, officer and enlisted, were invited to attend the wedding and reception held at the WAC's billets. They honeymooned in Torquay in the south of England.\n \nAfter the victory in Japan, the AACS headquarters was moved to Wiesbaden, Germany. In Wiesbaden Viola set up housing for her WACs. She and Dewey were unable to get quarters together and eventually decided to go home. They were able to fly back to the US in a B-17, Dewey being one of the pilots. Unfortunately, her homecoming was bittersweet as she found out that her brother was one of 97 civilian prisoners on Wake Island gunned down by the Japanese in October 1943.\n \nCharles Elmer Smith or Elmer as everyone called him, was born in Grant Florida on January 15, 1916 and he died October 1943. He was the 7th child and my Mother, Viola B Smith, was the 8th.  They were close and being the youngest two, grew up together. My Mother has written a paper entitled \"What I remember about Charles Elmer Smith.\"  This paper describes their relationship.\n \nSmith was a civilian construction worker, welder, on Wake Island in 1941 helping to construct an air base.  He was one of 1150 civilian contractors captured by the Japanese in December of that year. Soon after this happened Viola enlisted in the Woman's Army Corp to help bring him home faster. According to my mother, Grandma traveled to Cassadaga, FL in hopes of gaining spiritual information on her son.\n \nMy Mother found out after the war ended that he never made it off Wake Island. Elmer and 97 other civilian prisoners were gunned down by the Japanese in October 1943. In 1946 a newspaper article told of several survivors of Japanese prison camps getting in touch with Uncle Elmer's parents relating what a wonderful job he did helping man the guns during the battle.  He was also given command of the men remaining on the island.  The letter from the Navy included the following: \"The knowledge that your son was doing his part for the defense of this nation should console you in your bereavement.\"\n \nDewey S McClellan was born in Oceanside, California on July 25,1920 and he died July 9,1998. He received his associate degree in June 1940 from Taft Junior College. In October of that year he attended a Private Flying School in Santa Maria, California for 8 weeks. He graduated November 30, 1940.  As Dewey was eager to fly and the US was not in WW II yet, he and a friend looked into flying for the Royal Canadian Air Force. Instead Dewey became an Aviation Cadet in the US Army. He graduated from the Air Corps Training Center at Luke Field in Arizona on January 9, 1942. He went into active service January 9, 1942 as a second lieutenant and was stationed at Morrison Field, Florida. He was assigned to the Air Corp Ferring Command.  Dewey flew four-engine aircraft from the US to England and the US to India. He was a crew commander and was assigned to the 3rs ferrying group of the Air Transport Command.\nLater Captain Dewey McClellan became a pilot and Communications Officer for the 5th Army Airways Communication System based in London. He installed and flight checked communications equipment and navigational aids for all aircraft, US and allied, in the European Theater of operations. \n \nLondon was where he met his future wife, my mother, Captain Viola Smith. They were both part of the 5th AACS and met at a wiener roast in Hyde Park. They were married July 1, 1945 in the Church of England on Vere Street in London. All AACS personal in the London area, officer and enlisted, were invited to attend the wedding and reception. They honeymooned in Torquay in the south of England.\nAfter victory in Japan, the AACS headquarters was moved to Wiesbaden, Germany. Unable to get quarters together, they eventually were able to fly back to the US in a B-17, Dewey being one of the pilots. Dewey's date of separation was December 29, 1946.\n \nThese biographies were written by Susan Smith, the donor of this collection,  in November 2020. Susan Smith is the daughter of Viola B. McClellan and Dewey S. McClellan.","Transferred from the Institute on World War II and the Human Experience to FSU Libraries Special Collections \u0026 Archives in July 2022.","This collection relates to Viola B.

They were able to fly back to the US in a B-17, Dewey being one of the pilots. Unfortunately, her homecoming was bittersweet as she found out that her brother was one of 97 civilian prisoners on Wake Island gunned down by the Japanese in October 1943.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nCharles Elmer Smith or Elmer as everyone called him, was born in Grant Florida on January 15, 1916 and he died October 1943. He was the 7th child and my Mother, Viola B Smith, was the 8th.  They were close and being the youngest two, grew up together. My Mother has written a paper entitled \"What I remember about Charles Elmer Smith.\"  This paper describes their relationship.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nSmith was a civilian construction worker, welder, on Wake Island in 1941 helping to construct an air base.  He was one of 1150 civilian contractors captured by the Japanese in December of that year. Soon after this happened Viola enlisted in the Woman's Army Corp to help bring him home faster. According to my mother, Grandma traveled to Cassadaga, FL in hopes of gaining spiritual information on her son.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nMy Mother found out after the war ended that he never made it off Wake Island. Elmer and 97 other civilian prisoners were gunned down by the Japanese in October 1943. In 1946 a newspaper article told of several survivors of Japanese prison camps getting in touch with Uncle Elmer's parents relating what a wonderful job he did helping man the guns during the battle.  He was also given command of the men remaining on the island.  The letter from the Navy included the following: \"The knowledge that your son was doing his part for the defense of this nation should console you in your bereavement.\"\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nDewey S McClellan was born in Oceanside, California on July 25,1920 and he died July 9,1998. He received his associate degree in June 1940 from Taft Junior College. In October of that year he attended a Private Flying School in Santa Maria, California for 8 weeks. He graduated November 30, 1940.  As Dewey was eager to fly and the US was not in WW II yet, he and a friend looked into flying for the Royal Canadian Air Force. Instead Dewey became an Aviation Cadet in the US Army. He graduated from the Air Corps Training Center at Luke Field in Arizona on January 9, 1942. He went into active service January 9, 1942 as a second lieutenant and was stationed at Morrison Field, Florida. He was assigned to the Air Corp Ferring Command.  Dewey flew four-engine aircraft from the US to England and the US to India. He was a crew commander and was assigned to the 3rs ferrying group of the Air Transport Command.\nLater Captain Dewey McClellan became a pilot and Communications Officer for the 5th Army Airways Communication System based in London. He installed and flight checked communications equipment and navigational aids for all aircraft, US and allied, in the European Theater of operations. \n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nLondon was where he met his future wife, my mother, Captain Viola Smith. They were both part of the 5th AACS and met at a wiener roast in Hyde Park. They were married July 1, 1945 in the Church of England on Vere Street in London. All AACS personal in the London area, officer and enlisted, were invited to attend the wedding and reception. They honeymooned in Torquay in the south of England.\nAfter victory in Japan, the AACS headquarters was moved to Wiesbaden, Germany. Unable to get quarters together, they eventually were able to fly back to the US in a B-17, Dewey being one of the pilots. Dewey's date of separation was December 29, 1946.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThese biographies were written by Susan Smith, the donor of this collection,  in November 2020.
