Jim Potto Angelo Privitera AI Junior AI Studer Arch Tunnell Chuck Pratt Quarterback Halfback Halfback Halfback Quarterback Halfback BAND HAS TEST SHOW TODAY . .

Today's band show will be a guessing contest for the spectators as the 95-piece band under the direction of Roy J. Weger and assistant Richard Ecke; depicts some present day television programs. Today's television is a diet made chiefly of private eyes, cowpokes, hard-working policemen and brilliant crime-solving lawyers. One thing they all have in com- mon is a need for musicians to advance the highlights of their stories. Present day music is supercharged, modern and wit.i brilliant scoring. We know you watch the shows, but do you listen to the music as well? The 95-piece march- ing band today offers a test for your listening I.Q. in music and formation.

Prof. Roy Weger HEAD MAJORETTE IS NATIONAL FIGURE To Lucylee Neiswander, the pert, talented, and nationally recognized baton twirling ex- pert of the University Marching Band, large crowds and the pressure of competition are nothing new. From Briggs Stadium in Detroit to the green turfs of Kentucky, from the University of Iowa stadium to crowded New York City, she has displayed her amazing abilities to countless thousands of appreciative fans in halftime shows, parades, and national baton twirling contests. Entering the University from Adrian, Mich., last fall, Miss Neiswander began "twirling" at the age of 10. One year later she entered state competition in the freshman division and was crowned champion. At 12 she pulled down like honors in the junior, or intermediate, division. The next three years she maintained the title of cham- pion in the senior division. This gave her a total of five consecutive state championships by the age of 15. At this point, Lucylee set out for national honors by traveling to Dayton to compete in the National Baton Twirler's Association Meet. Again she came in first. Later that same year it was on to St. Paul for the Drum Major's Association National Championships. What happened? You guessed it! Another title was added to her long list of triumphs. Lucylee has over 200 medals and trophies for her untiring efforts through the years. She believes that two or three hours of prac- tice a day are necessary to keep in top form for a Saturday show. Her gold sequin costume is a part of the University's Golden Anniversary celebration. She is a sophomore in elementary education. Lucylee Neiswander BG CHEERS...

The Falcons didn't win the NWOC crown, despite an undefeated season. A 0-0 tie with Toledo and 6-6 against Findlay hurt the chances after wins over Defiance and Bluffton. Doyt Perry (pictured on front row fifth from right) was quarterback. Captain Chet Chapman, end and fullback, was the university's first all-Ohio recipient and considered one of the school's finest football players.
