    HOME GAME SPECIAL: NEWS COVERAGE INSIDE Published independently by students at Penn State Vol. 119 No. 16 Oct. 11-14, 2018 @DailyCollegian NO RAIN ON THIS PARADE By Patrick Burns THE DAILY COLLEGIAN Over a three hour and 23 minute period last November, Penn State didn’t really know what to do. With 7:57 left in the first half against Michigan State, the Nittany Lions put down their helmets, took off their pads and started chowing down on Chick-Fil-A and pizza. During a weather delay that lasted almost as long as the game itself, some players played hangman, some watched Netflix and others ei- ther napped or listened to music inside of Spartan Stadium. “It felt like forever we were in that locker room,” Yetur Gross-Matos said Tuesday. “It was just terrible.” Junior linebacker Cam Brown felt similarly, telling reporters: “It was kind of like we had too much time.” The players weren’t the only ones who didn’t know what to do, as James Franklin admitted he wasn’t prepared for a delay like that. “I didn’t have anything in my head coaching manual about how to handle a three hour and 23 minute delay,” James Franklin said after a last second field goal by the Spartans thwarted any last hopes of a Col- lege Football Playoff run. “But I guarantee you I will have one moving forward.” The blue and white’s next step on the highly publicized mission from “great” to “elite” is avoiding a loss to Michigan State for the second- straight year.

  • History of Royal Cromer Golf Club Established 1888
    History of Royal Cromer Golf Club established 1888 Information obtained from minute books, letters, members records, journals and periodicals. Royal Cromer Golf Club History Established 1888 Royal Cromer Golf Club owes its existence to the enthusiasm and love of the game of a Mr. Henry Broadhurst M.P., a Scot who lived at 19, Buckingham Street, The Strand, London. In the 1880's, whilst holidaying in Cromer, he recognised the potential of land to the seaward of the Lighthouse as a possible site for a Links Course. The popularity of North Norfolk at this time had been noted in the London City Press in a report dated 5th September 1886: "The public are greatly indebted to railway enterprise for the opening up of the East Coast. More bracing air and delightful sands are not to be found in any part of England. The only drawback is that the country is rather flat. This remark, however, does not apply to Cromer, which bids fair to become the most popular watering place, it being entirely free from objectionable features". The site of the proposed golf course was owned by the then Lord Suffield KCB, who kindly consented to the request of Broadhurst and some twenty other enthusiasts to rent the land. The Club was instituted in the Autumn of 1887 with Lord Suffield as President. Doubtless it was his friendship and influence with the Prince of Wales which precipitated the Prince's gracious patronage of the infant club on 25th December 1887. Thus Cromer had a Royal Golf Club even before its official opening the following January.

Sure, the old championship polls were bogus -- but the current system is just as bogus, and it doesn't even give fans anything to argue about. By: Allen Barra Nov. 29, 2001 | Everyone, I guess, assumes that the way things were when they were growing up is the norm, the way things ought to be. I'm that way, too, at least about college football. To many of my friends in the Northeast, college football means the Yale-Harvard game or Princeton–Cornell, or the game they turn on before dinner is ready on Thanksgiving. For people in the West, it's Cal-Stanford or USC-UCLA, or again, whatever precedes the turkey. If they watch the college championship on or near Jan. 2, it isn't because they have followed the teams all season or even know who is playing; they simply regard it as the less professional version of the Super Bowl. In the world they grew up in, college football is a mere appendage to the pro game, one that has a bit of snob appeal because it's played on college campuses (though this has lessened over the last couple of decades as some kind of college education has become accessible to nearly everyone).

  • 1 the Ancient Greeks Generally Reckoned
    The ancient Greeks generally reckoned time by Olympiads, that is to say, the period of time between celebrations, hence, every fifth year they held the Olympian Games. We have Dr William Penny Brookes to thank for the modern Olympics. He was a Shropshire GP and exercise fanatic who, in the late 1800s, thought it would be a fine idea to re-instate the ancient Greek Olympian Games - Bravo! But wait.… there seem to be plenty of examples of Olympic events in this country going back centuries before Penny Brookes. Robert Dover, a Lawyer from Norfolk, started the Cotswold Olimpiks exactly 400 years ago, after King James I gave him royal permission ....and some cast-off clothes, so that he might preside with greater dignity. The Cotswold Olimpiks continues to this very day. Working to the Greek 5 year rule, this year is their 80th Olympiad! Of course, we had the Ho-limpyc Gaymes in Oswestry in 1834 which unfortunately means that we are 3 years early for the 36th Oslympiad! Do you think anyone will notice? BRITISH FENCING use this Oswestry Games photograph for the cover of ‘The Sword’ magazine! 1 Richard Stonehouse of StonehousePhotographic, took such a wonderful photograph of Tom Gulliver and Bridie Lloyd of Oswestry Fencing Club that we decided to stage Rotary Club of Oswestry a photographic exhibition at Milanos Café during the Games.

  • Leamington & County Golf Club History of the Club
    Leamington & County Golf Club History of the club Golf in Leamington goes even further back in time as prior to 1890 two clubs were playing golf in the town. The Royal Leamington Spa Golf Club and the Royal Leamington Spa Ladies Golf Club were located on the Campion Hills and Lillington Road Links respectively. Neither of these proved to be permanent abodes. In 1904 the men moved to the Old Butts, Milverton and by 1907 some of the ladies were turning their eyes towards a new development. It was in that year that some citizens and town councillors, prompted by the desire to add a fitting amenity, formed the Leamington & County Golf Club and the new course was planned. It was this project which caught the ladies’ interest and began the demise of their own club. Then from the Old Butts the original men’s club, eventually known simply as Leamington Golf Club, moved in 1909 to links in Guys Cliffe Fields. There the game was played on a nine-hole course until 1930 when it increased to 18 holes. In 1935 the neighbouring Brookhurst House and grounds were purchased and the house converted into the clubhouse. The Club’s activities were halted in 1939 by the war but restarted after hostilities ended. It was in the early post-war period that some of the men, as the ladies had done earlier, sought membership of Leamington & County Golf Club. After a relatively short-survival period Brookhurst and the course became victim of the surge in property building. The first steps, in relation to the creation of Leamington & County Golf Club, was the convening of a meeting in Leamington Town Hall on 10th October 1907.
