? Truly a giant of financial security and protection,
the Jefferson Standard? as measured by volume of
ordinary life insurance in force? today ranks in the
top 2% among the nation's more than 1,500 life in
surance companies. With more than $2.4 billion of
ordinary life insurance in force and assets in excess
of $750 million, Jefferson Standard is one of the
largest and strongest life insurance companies in the
world. Now guaranteeing 3% on policies currently
issued, the Jefferson Standard for 57 years has never
paid less than 4% interest on dividend accumulations
and on policy proceeds left on deposit to provide
income. This long record of 4% interest payments . . .
unequalled by any other major life insurance com
pany . . . has stood the test of time at every point on
the economic cycle. If you value your life . . . think
Jefferson Standard.

Football . . ? What is foot- ,
j?ll? Webster defines foot- 1
Mil u an Infilled ball to be
kicked in sport, ? field game
played with a football In which |
each of two contesting teams i
tries to kick or carry the ball ,
to or through Its opponent s ]
goal or goal line.
That's about the silliest de
finition of football that I have
ever heard. I
And did you know that a lot J
of people accept it as that. ]
Some people may add that it
gives them some place to go
on Friday nights and Satur
day afternoons. I
To me and any boy that
has ever played football It is I
a lot more than what is de- i
fined by Webster.
Let me tell you how a ]
football player would define
football, k is a game that
requires 100H effort at all
times. It is a game where you
get out of it exactly what you ]
put into it. Nothing more,
nothing less.
A football player reports to
his school two weeks before 1
school opens for two a day |
practice sessions until school I
opens.
At the opening of school, he :
encounters other problems,
such as trying to maintain a
high scholastic average. He is I
required to do this in order to i
play the game he loves. No
other student Is required to
do this. He reports to school
at the same time as all other !
students, but his day is not
over at 3:00 as it Is for other
students. His day does not end
until dark, that is as far as ;
school is concerned. Most of I
these fellows have daily ]
chores to attend to upon reach
ing home.
After his evening meal, ?
chances are he will have to I
study for several hours. He
cannot go out and loaf half the
night (he is in training, re
member), and besides chances I
are after a good hard day's
practice, he's too tired and
doesn't care about going out
gallavantlng around.
He not only spends his 1
nights studying, he probably I
is thinking about today's prac- <
tice. . . what he did wrong... I
how he can make himself a I
better player . . . trying to !
remember what is expected of <
him when a certain play is j
called.
A football player practices (
twelve weeks out of every year 1
Out of these twelve weeks
practice, and if he is lucky,
he may get to play part of
ten games. He puts in fifty
days of hard practice till dark.
He gives 14) nine Saturday
mornings to report back to his
coaches for consultation and
review of the previous night's
game.
He has to memorize a lot
of plays. He has to know what
to do in certain instances. He
has to make a lot of quick
decisions. Sure,you and 1 can
sit up in the stands when e
makes a mistake and decide
what he should have done, but
that's after the play is over.
He has to make the decision
while the play in underway.
So you see, football is quite
1 bit more than what Webstej
says it Is. A football player
makes many sacrifices. He
takes a lot of hard knocks.
He may even get an arm, leg
sr nose broken. There have
seen instances where a boy
has even given his life to
play football. Although this is
rare and remote, it can
happen. It has happened. Just
as it has happened to people
getting in and out of a bath
tub, or crossing a street, or
falling down a flight of stairs.
1*11 guarantee you he will
take home a few bruises and
lots of sore muscles, all
through the season. Anyone
that has participated in sports
will tell you that football is the
most demanding of all sports.
You probably ask why does
he play if it requires all this.
I'll tell you why. First, he Ukes
It so he s got to. If he doesn't
he won't be back for practice
hut a few days because he is
only wasting his time and the
coaches.
The average boy likes
rugged bodily contact. And
then pleasing you pleases him.
There are lota of boys on the
team that you wouldn't even
know they were out for foot
ball unless you saw their
names on the program. These
are the fellows whose name
you never see In the paper,
but to me these are the fellows
who really make die team.
These are the fellows who
get knocked around all wMk
by the players on the first
team and most times in an un
usually close game on Friday
night they have to sit on dM
botch always hoping tbatthaif
chance will come so that thty
can show their relatives^
friends, and sweetheart that
they are on the team. Only
eleven men can play at a time
and these eleven men are the
ones that are considered the
best men and sometimes haw
to play the entire game.
These men are the ones that
probably warmed the bench
the previous years, having
come up through die ranks. But
I will guarantee you that Is
they stick it out until they
are seniors, they will be the
stars and the ones that will
be considered "first team".
So you see a football player
pays a big price to provide
you with entertainment on
Friday nights.
The next time you go out to
a football game and one of the
players make a mistake, and
he will make a mistake or two
quite often, don't be the first
to "Boo" him or criticize. He
knows when he makes a mis
take and he will hate it more
than you will. Tour "booing"
won't help his feelings.
If he does something to
please you and you think U
is good, be the first to applaud
and compliment. This goes a
long way and will make him
try just a little bit harder to
please you more. When you
meet him on the street or at
church services on Sunday,
let him in some way know that
you enjoy the game and appre
ciate the sacrifice that he is
making in order that you have
some place to go on Friday
nights.
Bobby Dodd, coach and ath
letic director at Georgia Tech
had this to say when some par
ents had a doubt in their mind
about their son playing foot
ball. They said that they were
?/raid If their boy played foot
ball it would run him and
possibly develop in him a
rough character and make him
a "bad" boy. His reply was
that "You send me a good
boy, and when he returns home
after playing football, 111 re
turn to you a better boy."
To me and thousands of
football fans, this just about
sums up what football is.
