Football to Rescue

Football may not be a necessity.
but at this season Of the year II
comes to the rescue OF faded minds
worrying about the war, and al least
offers bit of diversion where little
else has proved its salt.
We might wager that very few OF
the tWenty-odd thousand fans in
Kenan Stadium last Saturday gave d
thought at the moment to the war
in Europe. the dispute in the Far East
or Uncle Sans excited race for pre-
paredness. And that went, too, for
those thousands who saw the fracas
in the Duke Stadium or the State
Davidson clash in Raleigh in the
evening.
Tar Heels may not be as prosper
Gus as they would like, but somehow
they manage to find d surficiency
to pass them through the gates for
Big Five griciiron wars.
Maybe it is just as we'll. All
work and no play makes Jack dull
boy. And it will run some OF us
crazy if we can't get our minds on
anything but the war. There are
other interests that might serve us
to better purpose than even this. But
SO many OF us won't let them. We
prefer the football battles. And
that is better than nothing, we al
ways say.
