you how diminutive frankie Ar
row intercepted a State pass on
Alabama's forty yard line and
then scOOted fifty yards before he
was pulled down by a State safety
man. That run by a guard cleo
trified the vast thrOng of 10000
fans. But the players on the field
really got the kick when the cap
misunderstanding a play with his
quarterback said: How're we 60
ing to get that ball over for a
scorer"
Follow the Arrow" piped up
little frankie still painting from
his sensational rum" II block 'em
out. You just carry it over"
And carry it over they did.
-Four times to be exact and each
time Arrow was leading the way.
No wonder that Follow the
Arrow" frankie is still considered

1880. "FOllOw the Arrow"-yip-
ped the running guard as he
blocked to perfection on that red
letter Alabama day and the Grim
son Tide has been going strong
with the same old war whoOp ever
since.
frankie began his football ca
reer back in Boys High School in
Brooklyn. Although he was a
short stock youngster his ability
at tackle-a position usually mon
opolized by gargantuan hulks and
dreadnaught behemoths-was SUI
perb. He had no difficulty MAX

100 pounds and had to give feet
away to his opponents. Upon
graduation he entered Long Island
University but didn't stay. there
long and his decision to change is
one of the highlights in Alabama
athletic history.
At Alabama, frankie really went
to town. He was a crackeriack
swimmer and the intercollegiate
records he cut in the water still
stand as markers to shoot at in
the Southern conference.-the was
one of the best catcherS that Uni

Frank played football down Ala
bama way. In college, Frank was
shifted from tackle to guard. His
task was to hop out of the line,
skirt his own tackle and end and
cut a sWath for his ball carrying
mates. It's a WOrkhOrse job at
best and there's little chance for
glory in a position of that nature.
But the fact that frankie was of
vest pocket size and could still
block to perfection moved the
southern sports writer's from their
mint juleps to their typewriters
and throughout the 1929 season,
the press wires leading to the big
cities were hot with the news of
