Brown 1963

Brown at Princeton
November 2nd, 1963
​Princeton wins 34-13

​
Ladies and gentlemen, The Princeton University Marching Band now presents a Tiger’s-eye view of recent New York current events… One of the nation’s most controversial figures today is New York’s public-spirited Joe Valacchi. Although hunted by his former comrades of the Cosa Nostra, Valacchi has fearlessly continued to expose the workings of the criminal underground. As the Band forms a stool pigeon on the field, Valacchi is overheard to remark:

“It’s a Grand Night For Singing” (Band forms pigeon on a stool)

At the United Nations, we interview both the American ambassador, Adlai Stevenson, and Soviet ambassador, Zorin. Both men emphasize the world-influence of the Secretary General, and, when asked about his major diplomatic goal of the coming year, each exclaims:

“Getting To Know You” (Band forms ‘U’)

Strolling down Broadway, the Tiger Band comes upon June Wilkinson, another well-known figure. We observe June playing in “Pajama Tops,” a recent New York show:

“June Is Busting Out All Over” (Band forms bra)

Lastly, taking a trip into the low-rent district of suburban New York, the Band arrives in Providence, Rhode Island. Seeing a Brown undergraduate staring dejectedly at his environment, the Band asks what disturbs him. He sadly replies that:

​“It’s Just a Shanty in Old Shanty Town”
