CC pep sessions keep the Irish together in spirit Shortened periods and the bleachers are filled. Students tapping out Go Irish by the beat of the band starts, then the Memorare and the Star Spangled Banner gets things together. Cheerleaders lead the gathered in side lines as the senior men do two bits. Jim Orth beats out Song of India and the Re- serves do We ' re Proud . Throw this all together into 30 minutes and you can see just what the makings of rallys are like. But add a bit of spirit and the luck of the Irish and you have CC cheer and noise that the only thing left to do is bring in a victory as the players tried their hardest to do. Pep sessions relieve the monotony of daily classes and keep the famous never ending spirit alive at CC.

Music Department: concerts; tours; halftime; contests The school band heralded the opening school year by never really taking a summer vacation. Taking a pause long enough to say Good-bye to school and to say a quick Hello! , band camp rolled around fast, making the short summer rest appreciated. After that, for the musician majorettes, came the Purdue and Morehead State twirling camps. The majorette corps entered the N.I.S.B.O.V.A. twirl- ing contest and placed first among the ranks of their competitors. Various members of the band attended the camp held at Morehead State University in Kentucky. The band again took to the road during April for a week- end tour in the Chicago area. Finally, time came for the football games, down- town parades, home basketball games, and the appear- ances at pep sessions. As the year progressed, the band worked toward its goal of getting it all together. Concerts— 17
