Speaker 5 (03:13):
I don't play the rumbles, don't play the sambookers. Papa
loves ma bo to thank you, buddy and boys.
Speaker 4 (03:23):
You know, I've been thinking about an idea in connection
with college football, which some of the people I told
it too thought worthy of some further development, notably of
Vince Flaherty of the Los Angeles Examiner at the outset.
I want to make it clear to everybody that anything
I'm going to say shouldn't be interpreted as a dig
against college football, because I love the game. I love
(03:44):
the players, and I love the way they play. I
love the great men that makes out of them. But
it seems to me that over a period of years,
collegiate football has been singularly remiss and their obligation to
perform occasionally for worth wild charities and civic projects. As yet,
it may have been some instances, but I know of
(04:06):
no game of any size or consequence for charity that
has been played on the collegiate football field with the
net proceeds of being devoted to charity. There is an exception,
of course, if you can call it an exception, that's
the annual East West Shrine Game up in San Francisco
with the Shrine Hospital there. That's a very wonderful thing,
(04:26):
but it's played by all star teams, and the colleges
have no hand in the matter whatsoever, you know, if
you come to think about it. Over the years, it's
been my experience or my observation anyhow, to actors and singers, musicians,
sports figures, celebrities of all kinds, they have habitually given
(04:48):
a freely and generously of their time and their efforts
and appearances for charity. But not college football. You know,
almost regularly every year there are two outstanding teams in
the nation. Never have been brought together, at least not
to my knowledge, it seems, from what I've heard and
read and talking to players and coaches at the plumb
(05:09):
at the players and the coaches and the alumni seek
more eagerly than any others that at the end of
the season may be judged the number one team in
the nation. This is really an outstanding distinction, and they all.
Speaker 5 (05:21):
Crave it avidly.
Speaker 4 (05:23):
A game like the one I'm gonna tell you about
could answer the question and at the same time it
could raise a prodigious amount of money, really a great
big huncle Luke. For instance, this year, there's two teams
which seem to be standouts, University of California at Los Angeles.
That's UCLA and Oklahoma. Now, I'm confident that if a
(05:44):
game between these two colleges could be arranged in the
Los Angeles Coliseum, it would net upwards of half a
million dollars. Oh, I'd be enough money to build a
wing on a hospital or well. It could do an
awful lot of good in the in a variety of ways,
and at the same time, it would provide a great
contest for football fans, something that they're all screaming for. Now,
(06:07):
there's a further facet to this plan of mine that
I think I ought to tell you about, and this is
the most important point of all. As you probably have
heard and read there's a great need for funds to
send our Olympic team to Australia for the nineteen hundred
and fifty six Olympic Games. Really, this situation is dire.
It's really an emergency those of you, of course who
(06:30):
read the sports pages or the sports magazines. In fact,
there was a big article about it not too long
ago in Sports Illustrated. Why you know how intensely the
Russians are preparing for these games.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
They have a.
Speaker 4 (06:43):
Fierce desire to give us a real good clobber and
down in.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Melbourne they want to make us look bad.
Speaker 4 (06:48):
They want to make our way of life seem decadment
and our athlete's second rate. They want to set up
our civilization and try to expose it is soft, and
they want to establish Theirs as the right kind of
a civilization. Well, obviously this is something we can't allow
to happen. We got to send down the best trained
and the best equipped teams. If we've ever sent to
(07:09):
the Olympic Games the athletes to make up the team.
They must be made to realize that the whole nation
is behind them. And this is expensive. It takes an
awful lot of money. Nobody seems to know where it's
going to come from. Well, I think it could come
from such a football contest as the one that I
have proposed and the one that.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
I just described.
Speaker 4 (07:28):
I think it could be an annual thing. Doesn't matter
whether the conference prohibitions are against such a contest or
what precedent exists. Conference officials and conference heads should eschew
all these objections, and they should be in favor of
such a great project. I know the players would be
eager to participate, and I know the fans would love it,
and I know it would be of inestimable value in
(07:50):
pinpointing this emergency which exists. I don't know where it'll
go from here, this plan of mine, but I certainly
hope to keep banging away at until something happens. I
can't really see any worthwhile abjections to it happens.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Do we think we can come?
Speaker 4 (08:07):
I need to not.
Speaker 5 (08:10):
If I ever needed you, I needed you. Know. I
can't remember when I've ever been so blue, If I
ever needed love, I needed no.
Speaker 6 (08:38):
I see you so alone.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
I don't ever to do.
Speaker 6 (08:48):
No day or night goes by when I don't have
my Cris. I feel like I could time.
Speaker 5 (09:06):
From walking you.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
I can't ease my aching hag.
Speaker 6 (09:18):
But you didn't know how.
Speaker 5 (09:24):
If I burned you.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Any you know, no day or night goes by.
Speaker 6 (10:26):
When I don't have my cry.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
I feel like I could not.
Speaker 5 (10:37):
From wanting you.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
I can't ease my aching.
Speaker 6 (10:44):
High, but you don't know how have I ever.
Speaker 5 (10:56):
You I need?
Speaker 4 (11:10):
