Some Football Winners

By JOHN LARDNER,


NEW YORK, Oct. 3 (N.ANAD.-
Lovers of true poetry will be crazy
with joy to know that your CORE
spondent has renewed his poetic
license No. X-107 lover the protest
of certain corrupt, skulking politi-
clans who claim the license should
be revoked because I touled an
iambic pentameter in a one-way
street last November).
AS always, your football winners
will come to you in verse form
verse and verse, as the critic Nc
Corkindale remarked last year. The
critic McCorkindale is very Whim
sical fellow I think he is looking
for a punch in the nose.
Right now, though, friends, the
World Series is in progress. No
great poet can do himself Justice
while horde of Brooklyn barba
rians are scorching natures pure
fresh air with their yells. The
poet Wordsworth never could work
during World Series and I am
dead ringer for the poet Words
worth in more ways than one tany-
body who can name two will move
to the head of the class.
