Yale 1973
Yale at Princeton
November 17th, 1973
Princeton loses 13-30
Ladies and gentlemen, the Princeton University Band takes a long, hard look at heavenly bodies.
“Princeton Forward”
The Band first trains its telescope on a celestial phenomenon known as the black hole, a topic of recent research by Princeton’s noted Professor of Physics, John A. Wheeler. Professor Wheeler has found them to be dense concentrations of antimatter; the only denser entities known to man are Yalies and the editors of Prospect magazine. An outstanding characteristic of these hitherto unprobed entities is their inclination to absorb anything that comes within their sphere of influence. Professor Wheeler’s course climaxes with a trip to New Haven for first-hand exploration of the only black hole in the Ivy League. Forming
a) a black hole
b) a sphere of influence, or
c) a naval orange,
the Band notes that “He’s Got the Whole World in His Hands”
The Band now directs your attention upward, and reminds you of the coming of a new comet this month. We all know that comets display magnificent tails, and astronomers inform us that they are actually frigid bodies of gases. In recognition of the celestial occurrence, the Band proposes renaming the comet in honor of Yale’s principal benefactor. Forming
a) a comet,
b) a coming event,
c) Yale’s principal benefactor, or
d) none of the above,
the Band notes that “Eli’s Comin’.”
“Eli’s Comin'”
With the termination of the Skylab program, the Band proposes new directions for NASA’s rockets. An exciting space probe could include penetration of the asteroid belt, observation of Jupiter’s gyrating moons, and an exploration of the plutonic relationship between Venus and Uranus. Forming
a) a moon of Jupiter,
b) an asteroid belt, or
c) a NASA hole,
the Band sends its best wishes to Mission Control and gives three cheers for Old NASA.
“Moonlight Serenade”
(If yalies throw oranges) Thank you, ladies and gentlemen; this show has been brought to you by the Florida Citrus-Growers Association.
