With every victory and with every defeat must come music. This famous corps of major- ettes would have been without their color, without any special purpose had they not have been accompanied by the Junior College Band, whose tunes gave reason for their Ham- boyance. To mention them in cooperation with this corps is not sufhcientg their part was much more important than that, for they created not a small part of the whole collegiate atmosphere. The success of this organization was due to the skill of its bandmaster, com- poser-director Lorell McCann. Lower: MR. MCCANN, ROLLAND McGowAN, VAL BRAZELTOX, ROBERT ZIMMERMAN, Bos CLARK.

Majnrettes and Hand Springing full-grown from the head of its creator in the fall of 1940 and christened the world's largest Majorette Corps, the healthy brain child of Marsdon Sherman matured until it marched through the football season of 1942 in its full glory. At its coming of age the majorette group took up the theme of the warring world into which it was born and became a morale regiment in the front line of the mighty Panther army, a color guard in gold and white. General Dorothy Nagle, orderlies Ramelle Chester and Harriet Marshall, and the ranks of regulars and recruits brought enlivened diversity and enter- tainment to the game during half-time periods. Many trick stunts were carried out in collaboration with the tumbling team. On Armistice Day at the game with the University of Nevada Frosh a grand denouement combined participation in a victory parade with all the superlative exhibitions of the season. .70-
