I don't think this is 1960. Kaiser is in the drum line, and I am on bass drum (tall& skinny next to Hedworth) It is very likely Quebec, indoor April 1962. We didn't do much of a drill, and the drums were still gold! You can count the championshps on the bass head, 1958 59 60 61. Cheers!

This is clearly 1962 or later since the baritone line is equipped with bass baritones. Prior to '62, the corps carried 3 bass baritones plus the small baritones, usually 6. In '62 we went to a full bass baritone line of 9; 3,3 & 3 on the 3 parts.

Definately spring 1962 since full bass baritone line ('62 was the first year) and first generation green blouses (new blouses with black trim on the stripe was first worn at Rome, N.Y.).
