Huskie Game Honors Dads
by Jim Blake
Seldom have the cold northwest breezes blown such an ill-wind south as they did last night when the 38-man Washington Husky squad blew in.
Heralded by an earthquake and such ominous tags as ‘the Gruesome Twosome” of “the Fearsome Foursome,” and “the greatest Washington team of all time,” the visitors may even have brought their own weather for tomorrow’s Coliseum clash with SC. Kickoff is at 2 p.m.
Although the forecast is for clear and cold, it is sure to rain footballs when the quarterbacking half of the Gruesome pair, Don Heinrich, unlimbers what is com-only referred to up north as “the Arm.” And the full-backing quarter of the fearsome quartet, Hugh McElhenny, is expected to make things hot for Troy with his running prowess.
About all that Troy has to counter this avalanche of press agentry with is- a team in the throes of one of the worst SC football seasons in history. That may be plenty, too, considering past performances by teams from the land of the big winds.
This year’s Husky team has lost only two games, both by one touchdown to California and Illinois, and boasts—loud and clear—one of the nation’s most potent backfield combinations.
“The Fearsome Foursome,” although it has become a sixsome during the season, is usually composed of quarterback Heinrich, fullback McElhenny, and halfbacks Roland Kirkby and Jack Seth. Sophomores Bill Earley and Sam Mitchell have cracked the lineup consistently in place of Kirkby and Seth and have helped the Huskies to chalk up the top total offensive mark on the coast.
Practically nobody can name any member of the Husky line although there are some prety fearsome customers lurking there, too. Foremost, according to the estimate of the SC coaching staff is defensive guard, Ted Holzknecht. The rugged 190-pounder was the defensive star in the bruising but losing battle with California.
The Trojan and Husky lines share with Pennsylvania the dubious honor of having held the rampaging Bears to a mere two touchdowns. Both SC and Washington narrowly missed either tying or beating the bowl bound Berkeleyites in the final minutes of their games.
The California game is about the only reasonable means of comparing the two teams. The other common

Father’s Day was last June, but Trojan dad’s will get an extra treat tomorrow, when SC observes Trojan Dad’s day.
The dads will be honored guests at the SC-Washington grid titanic in the Coliseum, and will be the recipients of a special half-time program in their honor.
Al Wiggins, ASSC president, said. “All students are urged to bring their dads to this game, as it is especially dedicated to them." Wiggins said he hoped this first Dad’s day would pave the way for a Tro jan tradition, making for bigger and better affairs in the future.
The half-time program in honor of the fathers, promises to be one of the best of the year.
Schiavone and his Knights have designed a card stunt to greet dad.
Walker has recruited 15 high school bands to complement the Trojan’band.
The combined bands will ‘open the half-time activities with a spellout of “Our Dad s Day,” and “Hi Pop,’’ with a giant-sized pipe sandwiched in between. While this is going on the combined bands will play “All the Things You Are.
Following this, the groups will depict “Pop" fishing on a lake. In this stunt, he gets the fish, and reels it in. Accompanying this stunt, the bands will play, “Whistle While You Work.’’
