Friday the 18th
Superstitious Scribe
Hints Of Day Of
Rest on Jinx
Day.

(By the Friday the. 18th EDITOR
Since last March I've been walt
ing for q chance to write another
story about Friday, the 18th. Just
as I expected. the boss came UP
to me q while ago, and said:
"EIey, bud, tomorrow is Friday,
the 18th. How about one Of
those usual stories OF y0urs?"
Personally never even come to
work on Friday, the 18th, be-
cause I'm afraid I'm liable TO get
hOod0oed. Either I'll walk under
o ladder, or I'll walk on the wrong
side Of o telephone pole, or I'll
spill all the salt and there won't
be any left for me 70 throw over
my shoulder. I hate Fridays
anyway--they're bad luck - but
when Friday and the 18th come
together, I just stay home and
hide. I'm not superstitious or
anything, but you never know
what's going to happen.
] don't know why the boss al
ways wants o story about Friday,
the 18th. Everybody who has o
calendar knows what day II 10,
and we'd spare those who having
got calendars from lots Of worry
II we didn't say anything about
Friday, the 18th, until II was oil
over.
Friday, the 18th, always has the
same hoodoos and everybody
knows oil about them, SO there
isn't anything else can say
about tomorrow. Except. maybe,
to say that o big black cat walked
In the office o few days ago and
has now decided 10 be the off,
clal mascot. I hope he doesn't
follow me home tonight.
But that's enough Of that, and
I'm finished Til next August
when there's another Friday, the
18th. Okay, boss?

United Press Stan correspondentp

New York, October 9. - (UP) = The silkworm, a mulberry feeding moth which never has been given proper recognition, will come into its own on Saturday when the St. Mary's football team takes the field against Fordham at the Polo Grounds.
 This bit of heartening informa- tion was given to me by Tom Foudy, the young gentleman who does the advance publicity for the California team, now that Mister Will-Yum Stevens has finally gagged on his own adjectives and retired to the conservative life of a circus publicity man.
 The St. Mary's players, Foudy said, would wear uniforms com posed entirely of silk. Their shoes will be silk, their ankles will be tapped in silk, their pants, Jerseys, headgears, and pads will be silk. In case of cold weather, they Will don silk mittens, silk scarves, ana silk mustard plasters.
 If anyone but a St. Mary's publlcl- ty man told me this I wouldn't be- lieve it. But believe MT. Foudy for I have seen enough St, Mary's foot ball teams to know that they are tn- variably balmy, and are always Just as haywire as they are pictured.
 No matter how many adjectives a St. Mary's advance man throws, the team when it arrives always man. ages to live up to the notices. Some doubting Thomases were skeptical a few years back when Mister Stew ems came on ahead of the club ana announced that Coach Slip" Madi- gan would field team on which every player had distinct costume. Madigan did just that, and as an added gesture Madigan had ms quarterback wear 8 costume of soi1o white.
 MT. Foudy told me other interest ing things about the 1886 St. Marys team. It is not known as the "marauding madmen from Morago, any more. This name, along with saints in Silk" and "Madigans Musketeers," was dropped this sea son in favor of the "Morago Mael- strom."
 "A maelstrom is a very devastating article" MT. Foudy explained.
 Probably a maelstrom is the most
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-10-22

destructive force in the world. So what could be more natural than for us to choose that as name for the greatest football team the world has ever seen? A team where every position is handled by a man who is not only all-American, but all-time all American"
 We tried to interrupt MT. Foudy at this point and ask how it hap pened the "maelStrom" was held to scoreless tie by little San Fran cisco University, but his purple patch machine was in full cry now, and it wouldn't be halted.
 Have you heard of Coach Madi- gan's quarterbacking system this year? No, well it's marvellous. A plan of a genius. St. Mary's has two quarterbacks. One = a boy named Lou Ferry - is conservative, cautious, the type who wouldn't take a chance, even at 8 turkey raffle. Madigan uses him when, care is needed to protect a lead.
 "The other is Wally Morse. He's flaming gambler. No dare is too great, no risk too risky, for Wally. He will do anything, at any time. When the situation is desperate Wally is sent in to remedy it." Yes, MT. Foudy, but with 8 team of such super stars how does St. Mary's ever find itself in desperate situation.

 Getting Better

He now has completed 37 out of GA for total of 496 yards an da 57 per cent average.
