Dartmouth 1979
Princeton at Dartmouth
September 22nd, 1979
Princeton wins 16-0
Ladies and gentlemen, the Princeton University Band takes a long, hard look at Disasters.
“Princeton Forward”
Mexico this summer became a world leader in exportation of oil overseas as thousands of gallons reached American soil every day. Unfortunately, this is crude oil, vulgar oil, greasy and unrefined oil — in short “Dartmouth” oil, so called because it spills all over everything and leaves others to clean it up. This is a far cry from the smooth, clear, well-mannered and infinitely more refined oil Americans are used to — what experts call “Princeton” oil. Forming a disabled bird on the field, the Band denounced this foam-borne filth.
“That Old Black Magic” (Band forms a blob)
Speaking of disasters, there’s always Jimmy Carter. It looks like the only thing he’ll beat in 1980 are defenseless bunny rabbits. Meanwhile Ted Kennedy, riding high on a wave of “draft the senator” movements, contends that he is only testing the waters. With dissension growing, both parties are looking westward to the land of milk and Rodstadt, home of the Brown side-step and the Reagan shuffle. We only hope the country wakes up from this political nightmare.
“California Dreamin'” (Band changes a Carter smile into a frown)
The biggest visual disaster this summer was the exposure of the Ivy League on the pages of Playboy magazine. It is unclear to us why the photographers chose to include the livestock of Cornell, sludge from the Charles at Hahvahd, and especially those bacterial cultures at New Haven, when so many likely prospects graze the Princeton and Dartmouth campuses. Still, we in the Band feel that it was a disgusting, degrading, and exploitative move on the part of Playboy Incorporated…to raise the price to $2.50 for the September issue.
“Hey, Look Me Over” (Band forms a Playboy foldout) (Band forms a block Band)
“National Emblem”
And now stay tuned for a real live disaster, the Dartmouth Marching Band.
