under ’hopeful pressure that Lady Luck would bestow her victory
charms on their Thanksgiving efforts to overcome their determined
arch-rivate in the Annual Turkey Day Colorful Classics.
When the *’rtwf fell in” and the time clock ticked victory fur
ther and further away from their grasp, the losers heads took to
the air and fighting became their only defense.

Looking back in the yesteryears, seemingly ever' team had
one or two “name” players on the squad, whose popularity extend
ed to the kids on the playgrounds and the rank and file fans in the
street.
r How the names of there super performer* got around tb~ cb -

more advanced facilities for doing everything today and the average

“Joe” ps far as the sajjdlotterr and the average fan in the street t
conentted.
It*s true that the white schools now take a few of the top high
achoot%oot-ball stars which could account for the drop of hi'; names ir
all-colored circuits, but with improved schoolboy coaching and the
pres. n| modern methods and facilities foi training, seemingly mon
top high school stars would show up on college teams now than ever
before*!
ooachin? taffs In CIAA colleges were limited to the head
eoach'jlnd an “after class” assistant a short while back, and in some
instances an interested alumnus would term the head roach a "help
ing hdfid” with the team. But now there are three and four coaches
on fchejffield every afternoon to guide the destiny of the squad, which
shoulthpe an improvement over the old days: but the calibre of CIAA
football doesn't-seem to be advanced much, more than it was twenty
five years ago. and the top stars that one.- roamed the college grid
