"On The Beach" March Two-step by Fred Vokoun
By Dave Vincent

[ Ref. http://youtu.be/2AVBQVQxDRw 

Chatfield Brass Band's music lending library does have an incomplete
set of parts for a march by this name.  It was composed by Fred Vokoun.
The solo cornet part generally was used by the conductor in those days
and often is the only part that bears the copyright date, and since
Chatfield doesn't have a solo cornet part, the copyright date isn't
given.  The publisher was Currier Music Co.

I have another source I can consult.  I might have more information
in a day or two, but that's all I have right now.
