One parting shot at football:
There was the high school
coach whose team was getting
trounced, 500, in the final
period. The coach was frantic
on the sidelines, yelling at the
quarterback to give the ball to
the right halfback. the teams
star player.
But on play after play the
quarterback handed off to
either the left half or the full
back. The club lost yardage
almost every time and the coach
was going wild.
Give the ball to Calhoun"
he shouted time and again.
Finally, the quarterba back
called time out, trotted over to
the bench and told the coach:
I've heard you screaming at
me to give the ball to Calhoun,
but I thought you ought to
know that Calhoun says he
doesn't want It,"

Each player was surrounged
by a small group of friends,
each busily giving advice as to
how the game should be played.
There were 25 men on each
side, including a goalie. Each
goal scored meant the end of
one period or inning" of play.
There was a l0-minute rest
after each period, but no limit
to the length of these periods.
The first team to attain six
goals was to be declared the
winner.
The whistle blew, and as the
Daily FREEDMAN" reported.
Rutgers led off by winning the
first inning amid the vocifer-
GUS cheers Of the byStanders.
Princeton seemed to play a lit
tie wild at the beginning, but
the second inning they recov-
cred themselves and came out
the victors."
Thus it went back and forth,
first one team ahead and then
the other. When the 10th "in-
ming" started. Rutgers led, 5-4,
and one more goal would give
them the Scarlets a victory.
Teams Cheer Each Other
In a few moments, Rutgers
slammed down the field and
drove home the winning score,
capturing the first intercol-
legiate football game in Amer
ican history. The two squads
cheered each other heartily and
the game thus ended in good
feeling"
That evening the teams and
| a crowd of fans were enter
tanned at a then popular bake
shop called Northrop's. and at

Princeton sedately boarded the
train, threatening to come back

AFTER 81 YEARS OF TRYING
Or Rutgers on Brink
Of 1st Unbeoten Year

NEW BRUNSWICK. N. j.
Nov. % (NANAD.-Rutgers, the
school that invented" inter
collegiate football, may finally
complete an undefeated season
after 80 years of trying.
1t was here in 1869 that the
fist intercollegiate game was
played, between Rutgers and
Princeton. The next year, Rut-
gers played its first game with
Columbia. a rivalry that has
continued ever since and this
year is expected to result in
Columbia's defeat Saturday.
Despite several invitations,
the State university where foot
ball first began has announced
that its schedule will end, as
planned, Saturday; that it will
not play any post season
bowl" games, or let sports S
start to overShadow scholar
ship.
Wrecked Lehigh
On previous Saturdays, "Old
Queens" has overcome such
teams as Princeton, PennSyl-
vania and Lehigh.
The Scarlet smeared Lehigh,
32-15, earlier in the season.
And since Columbia lost to Le-
high, Rutgers is expected
to have little trouble caging
the Lions and ending the year
as the only major unbeaten
football team in the East.
The Rutgers Columbia ri
valry began in 1870, but Rut-
gers competition with nearby
Princeton is even older, going
back to November, 1869. when
the two New Jersey teams took
part in Americas first intercol-
legiate football game.
That first victory, in 1869
was probably the sweetest in
Rutgers history. On the morn
ing of November 6, the train
arrived from Princeton bearing
25 students and a group ot
rooters. They we're given lunch
and the chance to relax over
a few games of billiards before
strolling over to the field al

This first college football
game was quite different from
our modern one. 1t combined

President Kennedy is un-
der still restrained but
growing attack within his
party for his addiction to
the middle way.
The intellectuals complain
that he acts like an Irish
politician in vital policy
matters. The politicians re-
tort that in difficult politi-
cal situations he acts like
an intellectual. The better

that they might as well have
Adlai Stevenson in the

The intellectual complain
ants are roaming over a wide
field. Political unrest centers
upon the succession to Speak
er Rayburn who is now ad-
mitted to be suffering from
incurable cancer.
The failure to set up that
succession in time reflects
the careless way in which
the lines Of Democratic Party
power and responsibility
have been allowed to drift.
Many Democrats had hoped
that the new President,
whatever broad policy con-
cessions he might have to
make to the opposition,
would lead his party strongly
and with foresight.

sions in the negotiations"
Under these trying circum-
stances, it is regrettable that
President Kennedy is not
getting more help from the
members Of his own party as
we'll as from some of the
newspapers in Western
Europe. The impression is
being conveyed that the
Presidents own strong words
will be followed by a sur
render in the end on essential
points and that he will not
stand up in the final analysis
in support Of the government
Of West Germany.
One thing ought to be made
clear to domestic as we'll as
foreign critics. President
Kennedy cannot surrender
or back down on any vital
point. II he does and a real
defeat is registered in the
"cold war" on matters Of SUBJ
stance. he might as we'll say
farewell to the presidency in
the next election. For. If the
public is convinced that John
F. Kennedy did not stand up
in an international crisis, he
will be defeated at the polls.
The President, however. is
an experienced political an
slyst. He knows the conse-
uuences Of surrender better
than do his critics. He also
knows that to save his coun-
try from war by an honorable
settlement means certain re-
election.
The big question is how
Nikita Khrushchev sizes UP
the carping criticism Of the
President in the foreign press.
He must know that the United
States cannot back down on
established rights in Berlin.
He will try. therefore. to
prolong the present crisis
while he attempts to harass
the West in other parts Of
the world in the hope of
breaking up the Western al
lance.
This will be a long, long
controversy. 1t may take
years to resolve. For. as the
prospect Of a hot war recedes.
the cold war" intensifies
more and more as an instru-
ment Of Communist imperial
ism. 1t will require alertness

side-solidarity OF spirit as

Great Hour of Decision Believed Here
As West Pits Itself Against Soviets

I suggest that we should
remember all these things
because remembrance is good
in itself, and because remem-
brance may not come to us
again.
Many men of high station
are making much medicine at
the United Nations. How this
medicine will come out, and
how it will affect our rights
and responsibilities in the
world, no one can now say.
But there is. as this corre-
spondent has to guess it, a
very strong feeling here of
bright light, perhaps pointing
to better and stronger
world. And perhaps it might
open up a new and hostile
world to the West and per-
haps not.
Making like an expert in
these matters is twice delud-
ing. 1t deludes the people who
read; and it deludes the man
who writes. 1t may be that in
all our anxiety and trouble
we may as a nation actually
give up. as to the Russians,
what we should not give up.
It may be that in all this
clack and clamor at the
United Nations We may win
victories that seem secure
and yet aren't.
In all events, no one can
have a voctory over autumn.
and no one can be defeated
at the departure of summer.
We stand in a great place Of
national and personal deci-
sion. What is the right deci-
sion, in the cold war, no one
can really know.
Any correspondent, how
ever. can salute our present

Yet political observers in
the State suggest that in the
light of Edward Kennedy's
candidacy. Intervention by
the President in behalf of
any rival Of Representative
Mccormack for Speaker

Edward Kennedy is de-

next year either for re-
election or for the Senate
seat formerly held by the
President. 1t is held that Ed
ward Kennedy will run for
the office Volpe, the strong
est Republican in the State,

reservation occasionally when
he is emotionally moved by

Quiet diplomacy" - now

patient diplomacy. 1t covers
months-not Just days. Prog

public statements, nor is
there always a concrete ac-
complishment to be noted in

As for the world in general,
1t wants to know in advance
whether there is going to be
a war. On the basis of all

neither side has a logical
reason for beginning a war.

long series of nuclear tests
by Russia. which tends to
make people nervous.
1t is unfortunate that the
techniques of negotiation are
so unfamiliar to the public
that such an exaggerated i'm

the conference, for instance,
that President Kennedy had
