ROSErS COLLEGE ORCHESTRA We had a blank page, so what would be more appropriate than to hide Jerry ' s band here. As far as we know, there is not an Ag in the bunch, but they did play for the Ag brawl sponsored by the Ag club, so don ' t be offended by their being here, Ags. Who knows but what they might be good farmers if we have to come to that. As musicians, they rate tops, and have one of the best outfits ever presented on a State College campus. fy rgW Yf- ' Xm— ' Ss Page Tuenly-i
