Yale 1970
Princeton at Yale
November 14th, 1970
Princeton loses 22-27
Ladies and gentlemen, the Princeton University Band takes a long, hard look at pollution.
“Princeton Forward”
The Band first looks to the deteriorating condition of the air and notes that researchers have recently found that high sulfate concentrations in the atmosphere can cause women’s hosiery to disintegrate. The pantyhose industry is understandably distressed as it sees the bottom falling out of the market. Forming
a) a business falling apart at the seams, or
b) a bear market,
We foresee that if this problem gets further out of hand, the time may come when “On A Clear Day You Can See Forever” (Band forms pair of pants) Pollution has also hit the candy manufacturing industry, where rodent hairs have been found in some of America’s leading confections. However, new safety laws have been adopted which require sterilization of all ingredients before they are inserted into the candy. Even with these precautions, hairs have been discovered in the chewy center. Forming a thin candy shell on the field, the Band hopes that your next sweet treat melts in your mouth, not in your hand.
“Hair” (Band forms elongated circle)
The Band would like to salute the Fox of Elgin, Illinois, a modern day Robin Hood, who is a mysterious benefactor of our waterways. This upright citizen plugs up pipes pouring contaminants into virgin streams, causing the noxious chemicals to back up into the factories. In retaliation against the nocturnal missions, the plugged-up companies have placed a price on the fox’s head. Forming:
a) a “higher priced” head
b) a boxed fox
the Band wishes the fox success in his future missions.We now turn to another important but less publicized form of pollution pollution — sports fan pollution. This phenomenon is most prevalent in the city of New Haven, where the fans will boo anybody — see — (or, except the Princeton Band). They also spit and throw oranges (see). But when the spit hits the fan, they get upset. Forming a soggy Eli fan, the Band notes that the obvious solution to this perennial problem is to flush the Yale Bowl.
