Along the Sideline By William Fitzgerald, c'39 Kansas Sports Editor By Hugh Wire Guest Conductor Yesterday saw the beginning of another season of the great American sport called football. Twenty-two men on various gridirons here and there in the nation took another hitch on their $12.50 pants, took deep breaths and marched to do battle over a bag of air. Thousands of fans gulped hasty dinners and hurried to bonded stadiums to see their respective favorites do battle. Football as it is today is a product of evolution. Away back in 500 B.C. the Greeks of Sparta began a game which was probably the great-grandfather of our present game. In those days the game was used to condition soldiers. Now it is used to pay for stadiums. Later the Romans and English rules game, but without divine rules. American football was an outgrowth of rugby game still played in England. In 1876 the first American Intercollegiate Football association was created. A team then consisted of 15 players. Nine men formed a rush line, there was one quarterback, two halfbacks, one three-quarterback, and two full-backs. With so many men in the backfield the line had its hands full. Later on, the game got so rough in the days of the mass attack and firing a number of schools that a binned in a number of schools of the country. Rules were made to rectify this and the game again assumed national popularity. Subscribe for THE KANSAS CITY STAR The cost of outfitting a football team has gradually increased until today the cost ranges from $70 to $80 for each man on the squad. Everything possible is done to protect the players from unnecessary bumps and bruises. Some of the old pads have been combined in the present day football paddles to make the outfit more flexible. The age cost for players must be sufficient as follows: helmet, $12.50; undershirt, $1; jersey, $4.50; shoulder pads, $1; hip pads, $5; knee pads, $2; thigh pads, $3; sweat shirt, 1.75; pants, $12.50; shoes, $1; practice shoes, $10; game shoes, $11. For a squad of 40 men the cost of equipment is a considerable item. The freshmen showed the expected jitters yesterday afternoon against the varsity, but settled down in the second half, though most of the freshmen spent their time going off and on the field. Despite the attempted intimidation of some of the freshmen by the use of several old tricks of the trade by the varsity men, the freshmen show promise of developing a strong team. Frank Rudicky, who has played at Rockhurst, played an excellent game at halfface. Several of the varsity players have the usual pre-season blisters and sprains. Dick Amell will probably not see service for several days because of a leg infection. A meeting of all students interested in golf has been called for Tuesday evening at 7:30 in the Memorial Union building, according to Bill Moles, student tournament manager. Discussion of fall championship matches will be the main purpose of the meeting. Headquarters Rexall Drug Store Golf Meeting Scheduled 1009 Mass. PHONE 17 13 papers - 15 cper week 847 Mass.

Fresh The jam sessions of the "Radio City Music Hall" (Hans' name for the Cottage) were his introduction to American swing. They don't "swing" in Germany. Hans describes the jazz variation by the main ingredients—noise and pronounced rhythm." Continued from page 1 Gentlemen may prefer blondes but Hans takes his light brown. The school girls in his country wear no makeup; however, Hans is broad-minded and does not condemn costumes. His opinion of the world is the same as it is the world over, some good—some not so good." "K.U. dancing has more body motion," decided Herr Martin after attending several Hall dances. American Idiom Puzzles Him Herr Martin gets many laughs from American idiomatic expressions. Upon entering a fraternity house in Cleveland, Ohio, he was greeted by 10 boys who asked, "How do you do?" Hanna was punished. These boys had had no question and were not interrupted. He replied. He now understands that "how are you doing" and "what do you know" are merely English methods of greetings. "You have great football heroes and great basketball heroes, but the majority of you take care of your heroes and have no regular exercise." This is the German boy's analysis of American athletics. Hans enjoys running, swimming and broad jumping. Although he appreciates music, he does not participate in it. Reading, sports and photography are his hobbies. Maybe his next hobby will be Maybe his next hobby will be "swing" Varsity Downs-for the Varsity on the Freshman 20 yard line. Repliepg gained 15 yards on his own on the Fresh 15.
