players onithe back, hugged them |

and shouted, “Atta boy!”

Five coeds slipped past police : and swarmed over Halfback Mike

Maccioli. They hugged and kissed |

him and mauled him harder than |

the Irish line. He just stood there, and grinned bashfully. i Traffic Jammed | The crowd swarmed like live] sardines in a can. Heedless of the| mud, they sloshed up and down | the tracks waiting for their train to come in. It was two hours late, but they were there, to meet it. Hundreds of cars swarmed] around the station, and traffic was jammed for at least five blocks in all directions. Coeds and| men students stood on seats of convertibles to peek over the] crowd. The crowd was there half an| hour before the train came. There were students, townspeople, visi-

tors from outside Lafayette and]

youngsters in their early teens. All had the football fever. Yells Spread Small groups of students -tarted ‘unofficial cheering sections, and the yells spread to the rest of the mob. Several would start up with Purdue University’s song, and it| quickly spread to the others. The crowd also rang with songs like “Hail; Hail the*Gang's All Here” and “Glory, Glory, Hallelujah.” Streamers of toilet paper filled the air. Firecrackers burst out in various sections of the crowd. Police said, “It's just a lot of noise, with nobody getting hurt.” | Several times the crowd chanted | the numbers 1 to 28—Purdue’s| points, | This was the proudest town in| the land tonight. And it had good | reason. i Wherever we looked all eve-| ning, there were big smiles on these Hoosier faces: Big smiles] and shouts of a victory over gridiron’s “invincible” Irish. A spontaneous parade gathered after game time, made up of about 100 cars with horns blow-| ing, and several hundred happy | students, They screamed for joy| despite the drizzling rain. ! West Lafayette police reported no casualties. The whole town| was tense. Taverns were crowded | and you could hear “28 to 14!” gbove the blare of juke music. Purdue Wasn't 40 Students were still carrying banners bearing the number 40 and a question mark under it. In| student language, that meant Is Purdue to be the 40th victim on| Notre Dame's list? ¥ And they had the answer—a resounding NO! | Frederick L. Hovde, president! of Purdue University, expressed the feeling of the entire school. “I was sufprised with our victory because I though Notre Dame had a better team,” he said. | About 1000 celebrators gathered at the Big Four Rallroad station at 10 p. m. when the returning heroes were due to pull in. Their enthusiasm waned a bit when railroad officials announced the train would be two hours late. Most of the people left the depot, but said they'd be back. Dance Crowd Thin The regular Saturday night dance at the Student Union was poorly attended. Everybody was at the station waiting for the train . . . waiting to see-what would happen. { And they weren't all students. Many people from surrounding) towns came in just to see the fun. Dr. J. C. Boodell, associate professor in the Cook County Grad-| uate School of Medicine in Chicago, was there to take part in the celebration. He said he was. on his way, home from Lexington, Ky., When | he heard the final score. He went | out of his way to meet the boys at | the train and “see the biggest celebration Purdue ever held.” ) Dangerous Affair ~ And one man, who was try-| ing to get a little work done,| found the crowd ‘a dangerous af-| fair, He was trying to gross the, street in front of the railroad station with a big plate of glass] over his head. He got across the street, but it took him about 20] minutes. { Most of the celebrating was be-| ing done by students who were singing “Hail, Hail to Old Pur-| due,” slapping each other on the| back, shooting off firecrackers, ringing cowbells and just generally yelling their heads off.
