I have attached some 1951 photos of the North Texas Pep Band when I was a grad student in the Concert Band under Director Maurice McAdow. I was in charge of the Pep Band when we played for bonfires and pep rallies. The Marching Band played only for home games; women band members wore skirts as part of the regular uniform.

Here are just a few names of those dedicated musicians: James Knighten, Manuel De La Rosa, Harold Gore, Jack Rumbley, N.A. Lee, Floyd Nicholson, James O’Neal, Mary Standley, Joe Dabney, Phil Slavick, Jervis Underwood, Paul Riordan, Floyd Woodward and Ivan Goodwin.

Go Mean Green!
