 The '61 J.M. Cadet Band Plays "Hey Look Me Over"

These newspaper clippings, saved from local papers over many years, tell the history of the Corps in a way that nothing else can.  The Richmond Times Dispatch, News Leader, and The Monocle were always there to capture important cadet events at John Marshall.  Even out of town papers such as the Washington Evening Star would on occasion, run an interesting article.
