Harvard 1961
Princeton at Harvard
November 11th, 1961
Princeton loses 7-9
Ladies and gentlemen, this afternoon the Princeton University Band pays tribute to Boston: its old and its new. Modern historians seem to agree upon the fact that it was Boston’s circular maze of streets that caused Paul Revere to begin his historic ride from the Charleston shore. As Mr. Revere stated in 1775:
“Round and Round” (Band forms ballantine sign)
Being among the oldest American cities, Boston has had many “firsts,” among which is the first recorded display of juvenile delinquency. One evening in 1773, several young sons of “proper Bostonians” cleverly disguised themselves and vandalized some ships in the harbor.
“Tea for Two” (Band forms ‘T’)
Returning to the present, the Band recalls and event that occurred early this year. When President Kennedy took office in January, a trauma gripped Harvard as her professors began to pack their bags and move to Washington.
“Exodus” (Band forms the Capitol Building)
When asked about Harvard in general, a young Radcliffe miss was heard to reply:
“Lullaby of Birdland” (Band forms ‘H’)
