Football Week-end
September 8, 6 P.M.

The annual Whitney M. Young Jr., Football Classic between Grambling College and Morgan State College was dedicated to honor Fritz Pollard, the great All-American football player of the beginning of the twentieth century.

The game was played at Yankee Stadium before a crowd of 40,000 rabid fans. Honors for the immortal Fritz were given him by Marcia Bowles, daughter of the late Whitney Young and Horace Morris. (Pictures on these pages depict the festivities.)
