FOOTBALL: Facts and Figures

You can't tell the player, the teams, the coaches, the longest runs, the longest passes, the longest drop kicks without a program. This is it. A compendium of facts and figures of every kind and feature. Old timers will get a thrill out of digging into the ancient records that go back to football's infancy. The moderns will enjoy the outstanding records of players and games and colleges from all parts of the country. The author -- though not himself a former football player -- has footballitis caught from his Yale classmates, and he has done a scholarly job. Football fans now have their encyclopedia.
