Is that photographer down front Dick Deihl? I think I recognize that head.

Could be Art Luebke as well.

1972 The Big Ten program, September 2 1972, Hamilton, Ontario

(17) Chatelaines, Laval, Quebec

Wow Linda great shot of the original Chatelaines. This was a completely different corps than

most people remember. Their unis were red and white with gold trim. They folded after

1972. The new Chatelaines (burgundy & pink ones) started up under completely different leadership & instruction.

The original Chatelaines were another example of the excellence in girl corps from Quebec around this time.

Every year at Canadian nationals some obscure corps would show up from somewhere in Quebec and

kick everyone's ###es and then disappear.

It is Art, I commented a couple of pages back. I was there on the sidelines as well that year.

As an old triple player I cannot find the words.......this is just wrong!! These people must have angered someone influential. Why would ya' take an already massive instrument and add two more LARGER ones just like it? And strap it on? Rest of the bass line on strike or members were hard to come by...isn't there something in the Geneva Convention outlining this type cruel treatment? Did they do parades? Ok just kidding but really is there a recording of this somewhere? Extinction won this time.

Maybe you're just a wimp. These are petite demure French Canadian girls.

I’m a guard girl but from what I’ve read, these drums were trendy in the late 60’s; as in Boston from page 425…

and a discussion on page 1581 about the biggest…drum;

Thanks for the insight, Wendy. I found a photo on a web site; their skirts were navy blue, tunics and flags were red.

1973, Canadian Nationals program, Les Eclipses, Longueuil, Quebec
