An Evaluation
Now that the
greater number of
Rivalry events have
been completed, we
can observe a bit
more objectively
both the freshman
and sophomore
classes as they
gather their respec-
tive forces in an
attempt to reach the
zenith of Rivalry,
Campus Night, in a
blaze of glory.
Having been given
the opportunity to
pause for a moment,
we cannot but re-
flect upon the ree
sults of this system
as we heve seen
them.
Rivalry as we all
know or should know
by this time, is de-
goal is arrived at
through a series of
carefully planned
events many of which
are held in competi-
tion with the sopho-
more class. But as
we subjectively ana-
lyze the purpose and
results of Rivalry,
we are forced to re=
cognize other re-
sults, other end
goals of the system
which are of note-
worthy significance.
We are finally
beginning to dis-
cover in just how
many ways we have
actually benefitted
from participation
in this program. We
have been afforded
the opportunity to
meet and compete
with the members of
the sophomore class
ina most pleasant
manner.

experiences - with
this period of
events and rate them
as equally signifi-

member how all
beanied frosh were
so~ very often aided
by their arch-rivals
and how a word of
teasing from a soph-
omore was usually
accepted as a token
of acceptances; an
invitation to become
areal part of col-
lege life.
We haven't resent-

and so we mark well
the friendliness and

that the sophomores
and our classmates
have so cheerfully
and splendidly mani-

of who wins that co-
veted Rivalry cup if
we evermore keep in

of Rivalry systems
the countless new
vistas that it has
opened to us, then we
shall have succeeded
in knowing the true
spirit intended. Then
and only then each
one of us shall have
won a cooperative and

"RED DEVILS" OUTMANEUVER "YELLUW JACKETS",
ON# LONE TOUCHDOWN SPARKS RIVaLRY EVEMT
The fair skies of
Octoner 7 proved to
be a g00cd omen for
the ned Devil foot-
ball teau, as they
defeated the sophs,
6-0. The game wes
markea by tight de-
fense, hard blocking
and many thrilling,
runs.
Frosh coach Jerry
Knickerbocer pointed
to the excellent
work done by the de-
fensive unit in
stoppin;, the Yellow
Jackets passing
game. lLinemen Stan
Krivo, arry Flen-
ing, John Liddle and
Ron Hamilton kept up
constant pressure on
the opposition's
beckfielé, and some
key pass intercep-
tions by Dave Le
Bleu and Doug Dye,
followed by long
runbacks, kept the
Soph orfense away
from the goaliline.
The Red Devil of-
fense, rusty due to
only three hours
practice, managed to
score the only
touchdown in the
geme.e. The key play
Was a spectacular
one-handed catch by
right end Dick Cros-
sett. This was fol-
lowed by end sweeps
by right halfback
Len Sneddon and
Wing-back Dave Gag-
nier. «after having
a touchcoim called
back, quarterbeck
“rrol FitzGerald hit
left enc Tony Riser-
vato in the enc-zone
for the tally. Line
blocking on offense
Was done ably by Don
Juckett and Garry
Llioore, guards, and
heith Costello,
center. Dick Odor-
izzi, at fullbeck,
provided hard block-
ing on the enc
sweeps end pass pate
terns and some im-
portant drives thro-
ugh the micdle of
the line. When the
offense did get into
trouble, Luis Ospina
mace long punts to
push the sophs deep
into their own ter-
rlvory.
It must be noted
that most of the of-
fensive punch for
frosh came on the
ground, not by pas-
sing, as is usually
the case in this
nine-man touch foote
ball. The sophnores
tried to play a pas-
sing game and, al-
though the quarter-
pack had adequate
blocking, were not
very successful. 4

A LETTER TO THE EDITOR
To the Frosh: |
Either Daniel Web-
ster or some greater —
being, like ir. Over |
S(elf) Confidence ~
has done something
to the
class spirit.
The rally staged
on Monday. night on
Dorm Field Could
have been the best
yet presented by the
Red Devils. But in-
stead of 750 Satan
agents there were
75. Exactly ten per
cent of the “rare
ing" (?) Red Devils.
Could it be that
they think we have
elready won Rivalry?
If that is all we
whole
freshmen
need do, then we
have missed the
point of Riv-
alry. Rivalry
should give ius a
chance to meet each
other as well as up=
perclassmen. It
should give uS a
sense of unity: as
well as provide a
method for spotting
potential leaders.
Could another reason
be that we have lost
the leadership of
someone who had
"carried the ball"?
We all know who that
person is, and we
all know that it's
our own fault that
he is no longer pro-
viding those "rahs",

beginning to feel
the increased load
of work? Sure, but
ten minutes at a
rally is a small
part of the many
hours wasted at bull
sessions and card
games. Besides, a
rally is a good
break in an evening
of study 6
We need at least
one good rally a
week to keep us to-
gether as a class.
It's up to each one
of us to keep those
fires burning!
