Th football frenzy ia upon as. But let os, tn tht midst ef this
tranquil
pandemonium, call time Let as pause far a moment
reflection. What is this fama called football 1 What ia its history t
Its origins T Its traditions? Theso are not idlo questions, for when
wo kavt the answers wo will appreeiato even mora full, enjoy tvea
mors deeply, this great American gams of football.

i

First of all, to call football an American

gamo fa sotnewnat
True, the game ia now played almost exclusively in America,
but it comes to ua from a land far away and a civilisation long dead.
Football was first played in ancient Rome, Introduced by Julius
Caesar, it became one of the most popular Roman sports by the tints
of Nero's reign. The eminent historian Sigafoos reports a crowd of
MMCLDDXV11I people at tha Colosseum ons Saturday afternoon
to see too Christians play tha Lions.
With tha decline of tho Roman empire football fell into disuso,
Tho barbaric Huns and Goths preferred canasta. However, by tho
Twelfth Century A.D. football had emerged from its twilight and
risen to its rightful place in tho firmament of European pastimes.
Tho eminent historian Sigafoos reports that tho whole continent
was in tho grip of wild excitement in the year 1192 when tho
Crusaders, under Freddie Barbarossa, journeyed all the way to
Damascus to play the Saracena in the Fig Bowl game. The Crusaders
squeaked through, 23 to 21, on a field goal by Dick Coeur de Lion
in tho closing seconds of tho game.
October 21, 1512, will ever remain a red letter day In tho history
of football. On that day Leonardo da Vinci, who has often been enlled
"Tho Renaissance Man" because of his proficiency in a hundred arts
and sciences, was painting a picture ef a t lorcntine lady named
Mona Lisa Schultz. "Listen, Mona baby," he said as she struck a
pose for her portrait, "I keep telling you don't smile. Just relax and
look natural."
"But I'm not smiling," she replied.
"Well, what do you call it?" he said.
"Gee, I don't know," said Mrs. SchulU. "It's Just an expression,
kind of."
"Well, cut it out," said The Renaissance Man.
Ill try," she promised.
And try she did, but without success, for a moment later the artist
was ssving to her, "Look, Mora kid, I'm not gonna ask you again.
Wipe that silly grin off your face."
"Uonest to goodness, The Renaissance Man," said she to him, "It's
no rrin. It's just the wsy I look."
"Well, just stop it," said Leonard testily and turned away to mix
his pigments.
When he turned back to Mona Lisa and saw the smile still on
her face, he became so enraged that he seized the nearest object
a casava melon, as it happened and hurled it at her with all his
strength. Showing great presence of mind, she caught the melon and '
ran with it from the studio, until The Renaissance Man's temper
g.

should cooL

This was, of course, the first completed forward pass.

Another date dear to the hearts of all football fans Is September 29,
It was on this date, according to the eminent historian Sigafoos,
that a sixteen year bid lad named Christopher Columbus tried out
for the football team at Genoa Tech. He failed to make the team
because he was too light. (He weighed at that time only 12 pounds.)
1442.

And why, you ask, is this date September 20, 1442 so dear to
the hearts of all football fansT Because young Columbus was so
heartbroken at not making the team that be ran away to sea. And
if that hadn't happened, be never would have discovered America.
And if Columbus hadn't discovered America, the world never would
have discovered tobacco. And if the world hadn't discovered tobacco,
football fans never would have discovered Philip Morris which, ss
every fan knows, is the perfect companion to football. Aa Sigafoos,
the eminent historian, says, "Land's sakes, I can't even imagine
football without Philip Morris. I'd sooner go to a game without my
snap-ope- n
raccoon coat than without my neat, rich tobacco-brow- n
pack of mild vintage Philip Morris Cigarettes which corns in regular
or king-siz- e
at prices young and old can afford. Land's sakes 1"

The end of football la Europe came with the notorious "Black Cog
Scandal" of 1587, In which Ed Machiavelli, one of the Pisa mob,
paid off the University of Hoidolberg Sabres to throw the champion
ship game to the Caartres A. and iwL Gophers. It was mortal blow
to football on the continent
But the game took hold in the American colonies and thrived as It
had never thrived before. Which brings na to another date that
remaina evergreen in the hearts of football lovers : Deeembr 16. 1771.
On that date a British packet loaded with Ua sailed into itoatoa
harbor. The colonies had long been smarting under the English king's
tax on tea. "Taxation without representation." they called it, and
feelings ran high.
When on December 10, 1771, the British shro docked at Boston, a
semi-pr- o
football team called the Nonpareil Tigers, coached by
Samuel (Swifty) Adams, was scrimmaging near the harbor. "Come,
lads." cried Swifty, seeing the ship. "Let's dump the tea in the ocean 1"
With many a laugh and cheer the Nonpareil Tigers followed Swifty
aboard and proceeded to dump the earro overboard In a wild, diss,
organised and abandoned manner. "Here now I" called Swifty
sharply. "That's no wsy to dump tea overboard. Let's get into sums
kind of formation."
And that, fans, is bow tha "T" formation was born.

Which is a nice way of saying that the
"tribunal" dealt justice with a smirk-sa- fe
behind the rules and blind to individual circumstances.
Worse of all, the goon "cops" tried to play
a make believe game of cowboys and indians
and wound up looking like the old Keystone
lads. One carload of the goons reported to
a committee member Saturday night flint
they had their suspects sighted.
Then they took off in a cloud of futile
glory into the mysterious night-aw- ay
the dorms and off the campus. And then
there were the stories aliout fraternity li en
offering to lend cars to rushees rather than
risking giving them a rule, of sneaking th inks
to rushers on the sly, of keeping men overtime at rush parties ami so on.
So, it winds up that there was a lot of ak
and comic FBI imitations for this rush-w- ith
slightly better results, a lot of hard feelings
and some disillusioned fraternity men and

should have been condemned long ago. We
still have the women's barracks, which, although they aren't in the same shape as those
on Scott Street, should be replaced.
Then there are the ancient classroom
buildings such as Neville, Miller and Pence
jballs. These buildings should have been torn
down and replaced 10 years ago.
The drawback in these instances has been
'a lack of funds. We lack the money for the
housing facilities, the classrooms and other
improvements and replacements so urgently
needed.
The Legislature, contrary to popular belief, isn't entirely at fault for not appropriating the money. Everyone connected with
the University from the student to the administration has been partly to blame.
As any good businessman will say, it takes
advertising to promote support. That advertising, which here would be in the form of
widespread public relations, lias been lacking in the past .
Local newspapers have been willing
enough to play up tlie team, to give big display to the bad things and to overlook the

carried out with all the efficiency of an ape

First the goon squad policemen turned in

In spite of the many handicaps the University has had to face, in spite of a lack of
funds, in spite of frequent and unintelligent
opposition to advancement, the University
possesses all the potentialities needed to
make a great university.
If the faculty and students could work out
a program whereby our past and present
progress and our hopes for future progress-cou- ld
be spread throughout the state, the
University might find itself getting the help
