7:30 Tomorrow Is H-Hour For Brassy Cornell Attack

Cornell rooters and 113 Cornell band members plan to waken the Yard with music and rah-rah at 7:30 a.m. tomorrow morning, it was learned last night.

The daybreak serenade, which Ithaca students have been keeping under their dinks for the past week, is the Big Red's retaliation for a similar stunt that the Harvard Band pulled two years ago.

On the morning of the 1948 away Cornell game, Crimson musicians stepped off their all-night busses at 6 a.m. and marched for an hour and a half up and down Cornell's fraternity row. They met no opposition but occasional bags of water from bleary-eyed students.

Cornell band members leave Ithaca at 7:15 a.m. this morning in four busses. They hope to arrive at Boston's Hotel Brunswick at 7 p.m., getting a good night's sleep before their crepuscular Yard sortie.

At least 1,000 Cornell students are converging on Cambridge today and tomorrow, but few of them plan to join the demonstration.

Freshmen interviewed in the Yard last night didn't seem too eager about organizing any counter-rally.
