Columbia 1974
Columbia at Princeton
October 5th, 1974
Princeton wins 40-13
Ladies and gentlemen, the Princeton University Marching Band takes a long, hard look at recent campus innovations.
“Princeton Forward” (Band breaks from block band and goes into keyhole)
Speaking of jaundiced jingo journalism, one of the most startling, striking, and superfluously stupid innovations on campus is accurate and informative reporting by The Daily Princetonian. Last spring, the Yellow rag featured an article on the most effective techniques for breaking into dormitory rooms. The Proctors subsequently reported a 43% increase in theft. Thieves on campus would like to thank The Daily Princetonian for an invitation to…
“Walk Right In” (Band stick beats into a blob)
The Band notes yet another innovation, the Wa-Wa supermarket, which seems to have made campus facilities complete. And indeed, Wa-Wa seems to have everything. Where else can you buy a candy bar, a soda, and a pack of chewing gum, and still get 2 cents back from your five-dollar bill? And yet, even disregarding the prices, it would still be easy to reject Wa-Wa’s quality. We now join some bewildered Princetonians, inspecting the meat section, as they ask: “How Much is That Doggie in the Window”
(stick beats into curves)
Finally, the Band welcomes our special guests this afternoon. In our stands are 300 odd alumni, who are here to observe innovations. Noting the Open Admissions policy, one toothless alum was overheard to say “This certainly has broadened the Princeton Experience.” Forming on the field:
a) a broadened experience
b) an experienced broad, or
c) an oval with points,
the Band salutes this particular innovation.
