L3... Trocolar progressed. Lou, a staunch defensive ball player, and fine passer and runner, excelled in his forte-quick-kicking. The quick kick, when performed well, is a powerful offensive tool, and the squat Italian lad met no equal at this art. Add to this list of personal triumphs the plucky drive of Diz Dean, the block- ing and place-kicking of Leo Ravinsky, and the line play of Metling, Shellogg, Zdanevich, and Decker. The Blackbirds, after two successful seasons, were definitely on the way to the upper stratum. A 1941 schedule had been planned, even released, which in- cluded contests with Brooklyn College, Canisus, Albright, South Carolina, Fur- man, St. Mary's of Texas, Hardin-Sim- mons, and St. Anselm. Big time football was here with a bang. And bang.I it was gone. The Faculty Committee on Athletics came out with its momentous decision, and it stood up, despite a pas- sionate appeal from Seawanhaka and strong student pressure urging the return of the sport. Well, maybe when world conditions stabilize Long Island's record of five wins and one loss led all metropolitan schools, and comparative scores proved the Blackbirds eight touchdowns stronger than Rose Bowl winner Stanford, eight stronger than Texas A. and M., and seven better than Boston College. Ioe Koons, who staged a walk-out early last fall, gained center post on the Little All-Arnerican eleven. Bill King also was honored, placing on several aH-met squads. The Blackbirds, against Providence, St. Mary's, and Canisiusl actually outdrew Manhattan at the gate for the same three week-ends. LIU's 17,000 plus against Canisius doubled N.Y.U.,s attendance of the same week. However, over half of that crowd was composed of soldiers and sailors in uniform, admitted free. It was all part of the Armistice Day com- memoration. a I o v H: H! lfii-gg'o us: '14' 4.4fq;

0x, NTOBEE'; , 7h Rec Cheerleaders You can't squeeze blood out of a stone. It was CI mighty depressing year for the cheer-leoders ort LIU Who wowed and roh-ed, to no avail. Coached by the astute dancing master, Gluck Sandor, the Blackbird yellers were as proficient crs any in the metropolitan area, and their vocal cords as strong. But G8 the squad shivered and screamed through the football season, the students laughed up their worm overcoat sleeves. Not only did the cheering squad cheer, but it also danced and marched. The minds of Clair Bee and Sandor rigged up a corking ballet Victory formation which featured titty gorgeous Long Is- tond coeds strutting about the basket- ball court, marching to the music of the Blackbird bond. But the students kept right on snickering, omd the Madison Square Garden debut proved to be 0 tunerod march, not CI victory. Either the girls were too pretty, or the students were too busy mooching cigarettes to use their mouths to cheer. L-I-U, Hear their cry! Band It's taken o long time, but it's finally happened. LIU has a bond What am! Under the guidance of Raymond Shon- non, boton-wielding graduate of Okto- horno A. and M., the HOver the Rain- bow', mess of 1939 has developed into a rootin'-tootin, college troupe thott plays the Alma Mater ors though Long Island boosted of a campus and traditions. The highlight of CI bond season that spread itself over football, basketball, and baseball campaigns, omd at student- wide rallies, wors achieved the last night of February Cit Convention Holt, Philly. Leaving 300 Pearl Street ort four that afternoon, the band's bus trudged ninety miles in srx hours through a blinding blizzard to arrive two minutes after the Blackbirds hod outpointed LaSodle 42-41 in overtime. Disappointed, but eager to serenade or new crowd, the fifty piece bond put out-ond tore down the hodl with the swellest musical show of the year. Through snow and sleet and block of night, the band came through. :2 n z beate Vegft rWtCollcge OHW , ya J tV W p .nlw' J 5 i 13 ylllg h Mi t0 W w '1 Mt , u
