It was decided by Trojan Marching Band Director Dr. Arthur C. Bartner after meeting with UCLA game management that it was in the best interest of both universities to suspend this tradition at this game.
"It is important to protect a great rivalry and to conduct it in the most mutually respectful way possible," said Dr. Bartner.
