TWO SWC DEATHS SO FAR
Football In Wrong Season?
By HAROLD V. RATLIFF
Associated Press Sports Writer
The alarming number of heat
victims in Southwest Conference
football this year — in two in

son anyway.
Football is supposed to be a
fall-and autumn-game. Back 40
years ago it was unheard of to
start football in summer. It al
ways was around Oct. 1 when the
boys in the moleskins and leather
helmets got going.
Of course, in those days foot
ball didn’t attract the crowds and
wasn’t considered the greatest
sports attraction. With the up
surge of interest, it was but na
tural for the backers of football
to want to lengthen the season
and get in as many games as pos
sible.
They are moving it up more
every year. The pros begin in
July, the high schopls in August,
the colleges September 1, or, in
some instances, earlier.
THE ALMANAC says autumn
begins the third week in Septem
ber. That’s the first time there
can be weather favorable to young
men working in the ponderous re
galia of the grid game.
Football could start Oct. 1 and
there would be 10 dates for games
if the season extended into mid-
December. That is, in the south
west and the south. Of course, in
the east and midwest it becomes
too cold to play football in Decem
ber. But it’s cool enough to start
in September in those areas.
