These songs are scored mainly by three undergraduates, but the Kroks' prize arrangements come from Mr. Foster Trainer, a retired Boston businessman. Mr. Trainer appeared on the seene last December, and immediately delighted the Krokodiloes with his skill at jazz piano, and an endless store of lesser-known cabaret songs. Since then, he has contributed arrangements of everything from the saucy "Winter Nights" to the perennial "You Can Tell a Harvard Man"--all skillfully constructed with taste and contrapunal deftness...

From the gathering at City Hall in the morning, through the streets of Boston to the historic square--"if we live that long"--the band will treat the onlookers to old favorites by Sousa, Lithgow, Hall, and others, as well as some lesser-known marches. Prokoffief and Milhand will be conspicuous by their absence when the brass biares forth such martial strains as R. B. Hall's "S.I.B.A. March," which the band fondly dedicates to the Staten Island Boilermakers' Association...
