March 14, 2021 Update
Just figured out where this show was from. The clue is the airplanes in the upper LH corner of the photo.
That, and matching up the drum majors with the score sheet show participants, clinched it.
Names in red were the DMs in question. Now they are correct.
This photo is also of the June 30, 1974 Brazen Brass show in Renton (above in color)
