Headline Makers -..- Looking over the sport pages of any daily paper one forms a remote acquaintance with the celebrities who make the headlines. Joe Louis, Don Budge, Joe DiMaggio, and count- less others are placed before the public's eye so often that every small boy feels that he knows the "Brown Bomber", if not in reality at least in his imagination. Those connected with the sporting world, columnists such as Grantland Rice and radio's Ted Husings and Bill Sterns, have come into close contact with the "greats", know them as average hu- man beings, and probably take them for granted. We, too, were thrilled when, at the age of 10 or 12, we saw some One of the largest and best stocks in the State. All makes and models at lowest prices. 0. D. Morrill 314 S. State (Opp. Kresge's) Since 1908 Phone 6615 s I football star at close range, per- haps even had Babe Ruth auto- graph a baseball. Thinking back several years, not too many, we found that there were quite a few instances in which just such a thrill was obtained. First and foremost will always be not only actually meeting the great- est coach of all time, Knute Rockne, but having him come to the house for dinner. Capable of doing little else than staring and listening, we have always retained the impression that "Rock" was a wonderful man, as well as a great coach and leader of men. Quiet and modest, yet recog- nized as one of America's most flu- ent speakers, he was as efficient in the business world as he was on the sidelines of a football field. Then there was the time when Rip Miller, former lineman on Notre Dame's famous "Four Horsemen" team and Navy coach, invited us to sit on the Navy bench and our watching "Buzz" Borries sweep through a helpless William and Mary team from that vantage point. Listening to the talk on the bench and smelling "Old Bill", the Navy goat, who was regrettably close at hand. While still younger there were such moments as being introduced to Curley Lambeau, coach of the Green Bay Packers, during the half of a game in Philadelphia; caddying for Harry Cooper at the Elmhurst Coun- try Club outside of Chicago; meet- ing Joe Cronin and owner Clark Griffith a few moments after the Senators had walloped the Yanks ithat has -actually happened, hard as it is to believe), bumping into Bar- ney Ross on Chicago's LaSalle Street. High school days were to find close acquaintances with twoj football players who were to monopolize the headlines during their college careers. Bob Mac- Leod was a mighty good halfback and low hurdler at Glenbard High School, Glenn Ellyn, Illi- nois, several years ago. His record low hurdle effort nosed York out of a conference cham- pionship one spring, which we didn't like too well. MacLeod was to become Dartmouth's great backfield star in later years. Nile Kinnick was acclaimed Ameri- ca's outstanding athlete last year. The Hawkeye flash, who garnered more trophies after the 1939 foot- ball season than he probably knows what to do with, began his brilliant career at Benson High School in Omaha, Neb. It is rather gratify- ing now to realize that we were once trampled in a high school scrim- mage by 1939's greatest All-American. It was interesting to hear Kinnick's opinion this Christma's vacation of the last Michigan-Iowa game in which the Wolverines walked over Iowa 27 to 7. "I thought Harmon was all, and more, he was cracked, up to be but we all considered Eva- shevski the best man on the field that afternoon," were his words. A moment at the Big Ten- Pacific Coast track meet at Dyche Stadium in Evanston will be remembered. Chuck Fenske of Wisconsin was literally burn- ing up the track as he moved away from Southern California's Zamperini in the mile and be- hind us Fenske's grizzled father was pounding on our back and yelling "C'mon, Chuck!" Then there were the times when we met Jesse Owens, the Buckeye speedster who covered himself with glory in the 1936 Olympics and who cracked three world's records and tied another on Ferry Field one afternoon; talking to "Pop" Schulte, Nebraska's "grand old man" of track; having Ab Jenkins, famous American dis- tance driver and holder of more automobile speed records than any man in the world, give us a spin over the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah. These were all memorable occa- sions and are worth thinking back upon. They are comparatively few as compared to the experiences and acquaintances some persons have had but they have made us realize that the headliners of the sporting world are, more often than not, real and admirable people. -J.M.
