It turned out that he meant Mrs. Knute Kenneth Rockne, widow of Knute, the man we all agree was the best coach who ever sent out a football team to play for ail it was worth, a game that was not worth all that, if you get what I mean. "Mrs. Rockne is in the devil of a pickle.” my informant breathlessly told me. "She Just doesn't I know what to do. You see, the

Orange Bowl game is gonna be played here tomorrow and the two teams are Duquesne and Mississippi State. She can’t decide which team to yell for. It’s this way. The Duquesne coach is Clipper Smith, and ho played at Notre Dame under Rockne. Rock liked him. and so did Mrs. Rockne. The backfield coach at Mississippi , State is Frank (Aarideo. one of the I greatest quarterbacks the Irish; ever had. He durn near lived with I Knute and Mrs. Knute for threel years, for Rock was a great one' to work on quarterbacks. Can’t j vou see what a ewell story it is? | What’s she gonr.a do? Boy. what a story. Get in your car and let’s ; go.” We didn’t go out. I couldn’t see it as a story. I tried, too. land : knows, but the more I thought about it the more it resembled horsefeathers to me. If I had gone I know Mrs. ; Rockne would have told me something like this: “I just don’t know: what to do. I like Clipper and I am devoted to Frank. Do you think it wmuld lie all right for me ; to sit the first half on the Duques- j ue side and the second half on th* 1 ; Mississippi State side?” I surely do. Mrs. Rockne. I think it's the only wav out of the , predicament, but I don’t think it’s half as important where you sit tthat is. if von've known both Clipper and Frank for years an.l Htill don’t know which boy you'd rather see win) as it is that Major Ralnh Sasse. coach of the Mississippi team, arrived here with his team yesterday and refused to allow a picture to be made. He istepnod off’ the train and, setting that jaw of his. said in e. voice that shook the butterf'v train shed, “no pictures.” He said this, despite the fact that 11.000 photogranhers (Miami has 100.000 registered photographers in the winter months) stood on the platform with lens’ trained. and the publicity experts who have the game in charge were there with two gorgeous female creatures dressed in the familiar organdy

and poinsettas of the Florida foot- . ball sponsors. "No pictures.” iSasse bellowed it once more for good measure and with a click of his heels and a twirl of his moustache (that’s pure fiction about the moustache because he has none, but it makee him sound more brusque) bundled his squad in a bus and made off for a field where he practiced behind closed | gates. This gesture immediately endeared him to the city fathers. If there is on ething the city fathers don’t want out of this ghme. it’s publicity. In the Orange Bowl game they hope to produce once a year a game between two groups | I of lithe, earne st young men, with nothing more at stake than pride, i They do not want to compete with the Rose Bowl, which they consider an out and out publicity stunt, arranged by a chamber of commerce genius. Maybe I’d better stop before I start telling a lie. or maybe an even dozen lies.
