Cornell 1962

Princeton at Cornell
October 27th, 1962

Princeton loses 34-35

Ladies and gentlemen: This afternoon the Princeton University Marching Band surveys women and education. Women have attained educational equality with men only in the last hundred years. However, on the opening page of history, we see that a women was man’s first teacher.

“In the Shade of the Old Apple Tree”

Moving a short step forward, we arrive at modern Vassar. We see a lovely young thing and her Ivy League beau embracing beneath a Poughkeepsie arch. Fear of Miss Blanding’s omnipresence cause our heroine to whisper:

“It’s All-Right With Me”

Elsewhere, women are notably free from restriction. For example, Cornell’s senior women have no curfews, and we understand that they manage to make good use of their freedom.

“There’s a Small Hotel”

The modern woman has come so far…that she can now march side by side down the field with the Big Red musicians of the Cornell Band.

​“I’ve Got Rhythm”
