The Academy band and twirlers proceeded down the field . . . the crowd applauded and cheered them . . . the twirlers strutting before the band, looked very smart in their varied colored uniforms . . . the crowd rose . . . as the signal was given by the cheerleaders the school song rang out across the gridiron . . . Then a peppy fifteen-up for the team. The Half! . . . tonight the Academy band and twirlers put on a colorful interlude called t'Bell Bottom Trousers , . . this brought to mind other colorful drills executed by the Drum Corps including Sue Richardson's and Ada Mae Smith's exhibition of twirling lighted batons in a darkened stadium. So you see the cheerleaders, the bands, the drum corps, and the crowd all go together to make up a FCCTBALL GAME!
