C.T.A.U. Band
The Catholic Total Abstinence Union of America in Freeland was affiliated with St. Ann's Church.
This 1999 newspaper clipping comes
to us courtesy of the Standard Speaker: "This is the early-century
vintage St. Ann's Band - known then as the C.T.A.U. - Catholic Total
Abstinence Union - Band. Prof, Vince Petrilli (father of the Petrilli
Funeral Home in early Freeland) is in white, and that is Pat Duffy with
the drum on left. Can anyone point out Michael Murrin?"1916
