Penn 1969

Penn at Princeton
October 25th, 1969
Princeton wins 42-0
​

Ladies and gentlemen, in honor of Parents’ weekend, this Princeton University Band show has been rated “M” for MOM.
The Band regrets that the Princeton parents have been seated on the other side of the field. Appropriately, we form MOM, noting that although others may see her differently, we feel that she has played a vital role in preparing the average Princetonian for college life.

“Mrs. Robinson” (Band forms ‘MOM’)

To Mr. and Mrs. Charlie’s chagrin, one of the first things their son, Princeton, learns when you arrives on campus is how to smoke a pipe. But the University, hoping to sniff out health hazards, has installed a sophisticated fire alarm system which reacts to everything but fires. Forming

a) a heater meter
b) a fire crier
c) a dope scope
we hear the student reaction to the constant alarms.

“Goin Out Of My Head”

The Band observes Mr. and Mrs. Charlie examining their son’s room, his clothes and his language — all clean for the one and only time this year. They may also note that, while the freshman in Brown and Dod now have Coke and candy machines, those in Pyne have even better conveniences. Forming

a) a free New York Times
b) draperies
c) telephones
d) colorful new furniture
e) sewing machines
f) kitchenettes
g) convertible beds, or
h) all of these,
we overhear Princeton Charlie complain

“Whatever Lola Wants” (Band forms a blob)

Although Mr. and Mrs. Charlie may now be distressed, Mr. and Mrs. Pyne can be well assured that their daughter, Sue, is safe at all times, thanks to such University additions as spectacular campus lighting, round-the-clock FBI security, and a complete lock, key, and buzzer system. Forming a breach of security, we note that Charlie has other ideas.
