Reveries Annex St. Kevin's Show

DCN June 19, 1963 issue

CHELSEA, MASS., June 9 - The I.C. Reveries, who have been repressed by their Class A rivals in Boston M&M meets thus far this season, emerged triumphant here today with a score of 81.8, more than six points ahead of runner-up St. Mary's Cardinals of Beverly, Mass.

The Cardinals totaled 75.65, while third place Majestic Knights amassed 74.04 points. Other Class A Corps in competition included the Holy Family Defenders of Rockland, Mass., and Our Lady of Lourdes of Jamaica Plain.

The contest, entitled the second annual "Marches in Brass and Percussion" was the production of St. Kevin's Emerald Knights, who put on an exhibition. A novel bit which added to their usual fine performance was the announcer's introduction of each song before it was played.

Prior to the announcing of the scores, everyone stood for a moment of respectful silence as Taps were played by St. Kevin's buglers in memory of Pope John XXIII.
