Marching 110 The final seconds of the second quarter count down and the football team leaves the field. When the fans hear, ' And now, under the direction of Mr. Ronald P. Socciarelli, thev know what is about to happen. ..the Ohio University Marching Band is going to perform another one of its exciting half- time shows. From game to game the excitement of the crowd never decreases. The bleachers are always full of dedicated cheering OU Marching 110 fans. The praise and dedication is well deserved. The band members arrived at school a week earlier than the student body to try out for a place in the band. Members are required to have their hair cut at a length so that it doesn ' t touch the uniform collar. They practice daily for two hours to learn their music and innovative dance routines. Several of this year ' s highlights included trips to the Circleville Pumpkin Show and the Ohio Theatre. The Marching 110 also played half-time shows for a Buffalo Bills game in New York and a Cleveland Browns game. At Varsity Night in Memorial Audito- rium, fans and parents were given an opportunity to hear the band plav such songs as ' 5150, ' Invisible Touch, and ' Dancing on the Ceiling one last time. The seniors were introduced and given a ch- ance to ' strut their stuff in solo perfor- mances, and the night ended with a stand- ing ovation which the Marching 110 seniors will undoubtedly take with them wherever their plans take them.
