Princeton wins 21-7
Ladies and gentlemen: Before you bite into that hot dog, the Princeton University Band would like to present a few frank words about the meatpacking industry.
The Band notes that meatpackers have been putting chicken in hot dogs to make them cheap, but that the government has cried foul and demanded that the industry find some other ways to make ends meet. Forming
a) a hot dog
b) another barnyard product
the Band urges you to ask yourself how long before sports fans across the nation are asking themselves:
“Where Oh Where Has My Little Dog Gone”
Speaking of meatpacking, the Band notes that President Nixon has recently appointed a Burger to the Supreme Court, and we wonder if he will follow in the liberal tradition of Felix Frankfurter in preserving the individual’s right to privacy. As one of the big issues now is wiretapping, the Band hopes that the Court will continue to squash bugs. Forming a hidden microphone, we overhear the possible complaint of the American citizens:
“Me and My Shadow”
Speaking of meatpacking, the Band observes that Wall Street secretaries have been shaking the very foundations of the financial district by shunning the traditional brassiere. By provoking a rising interest rate, this practice has understandably contributed to a bear market. Noting that the businessman has always favored fewer restraints, we form a “laissez-faire” economy and salute him and his newly-liberated secretary:
“Born Free” (Band forms blob)
Speaking of meatpacking, we turn our attention to the ever-popular Long Island Railroad, noting that Governor Rockefeller has promised that by October 7th it will be the best commuter line in the country. Forming
a) a line of commuters waiting to board
b) a line of bored commuters waiting
c) a Long Island Line
the Band agrees that it will indeed be the best in the nation by October 7th:
“In the Year 2525”
