some old corps photos

Are Frazier Thomas and Bob Bell still alive?

No, both have passed on (along with Ray Rayner, last year). Most of the Chicago tv personalites of the 60s and 70s are gone, although Garfield and Romberg Rabbit are still on display (at the Museum of Broadcast Communication down at the Cultural Center).

I was dropping something off at WGN's studios on Bradley Pl a little while ago, and noticed that they're keeping big chunks of the Bozo set in their storage dock. A little sad to see them out of commission, but at least they didn't trash them entirely.

1972 27th Lancers:

To honor LancerFi, even though it was before her time:

Can anybody from the 27th Lancers tell me what the guy in the white pit helmet

does in the corps, as well as the other two guys on either side of him?????

Or does anybody really know?

Yes he looked very swashbuckling in that shot. :P

I beg your pardon, Dan........I have NEVER EVER been known to swash any buckles!!! (Or buckle any swashes, for that matter!!!) :D

That's the 1964 Appleton Flag Day parade--and uncle z's first exposure to drum corps (at the tender age of two!!!)

(and I just know that someone on DCP knows the name of that guard sergeant!)

I'll take a stab at it, ODBC--

The guy in the white pith helmet is Victor Borge and the other two guys are DMs!!!!!!!!! :P

What I'd like to know is why the sabre on the far left has a white aussie when all the others are black??? Is she the saber captain???? :rolleyes:
