air is getting cooler, kids are peer

Catawba plays Davis & Elkins at

season is upon u.s.
At the moment this desk is piled
hip-high with brightly covered ros-

as the fact that a man named Ber-

pronounces his name 'Bare-ee-oh-

These rosters explain everything
except the one item that this de-
partment is vitally Interested in.
Why is it that SO many football
PLAYERS have nomad blood and wan
der SO far from home to do and
die for their alma mater? What sets
a blocking back and a 200 pound
tackle to dreaming about far away
places?
Once, in the dark of the moon,
man whispered to me that col
legeS had practice of securing
the country looking for football
material and that when they found
good high school player they Of
fered him something called a schol-
arship. That man, however, was
confirmed cynic who also assured
me with a perfectly straight face
that there was no such person as
Santa Claus. So l hurled the lie
back into his teeth and continued
my research on why football play
ers are nomadS.
