How did I make the transition from a Teachers' College to the life insurance business? Here is about how it happened. I waved a fond farewell to Moorhead State Teachers' College, Minnesota, in the spring of 1941, and settled down to do some serious thinking concerning my future. Uncle Sam.supplied some of the answers in September of that year, and for the next five years the Army Air Corps was my boss, and my address was a succession of Army Air Bases and A.P.O. numbers, which stretched from Colorado to Scotland, England, Africa, Italy and Corsica. For two of these years it was my good fortune to be associ- ated with a brother officer, MCapfl Haines, in civilian life a partner in New England Mutual's Philadelphia General Agency, Moore and Haines. He, my wife—a U. S. Army nurse, whom I married in Africa—and I spent long hours discussing life insur- ance and its possibilities as a career for me. It offered all of the things that I had ever hoped for in business: independence, unlimited income possibilities and, most of all, a never-ending challenge to my ability in a field where limits do not exist, excepting as I alone set them. Before I had finished my terminal leave, I was studying for my Pennsylvania State Insurance examination, and was making field trips with my friend from overseas. Now, after two years, I am more convinced than ever that there is no better future than that which the New England Mutual offers. To prove my point, I have the support of my 97 policy- holders, and the one million dollars of new life insurance which I have placed on their lives.

Over the first five opponents met, the Red riders have been victorious. In the first match of the season, Harvard was defeated 23-5. The Cortland Polo Club was then edged out, 14-13, and an alumni team was overcome, 27-11, with the undergraduate team given a 10-goal handicap. Williams College was the next victim, losing 18-8, and November 13, Cornell defeated the Akron Polo Club, 16-15, in a sudden- death overtime contest. Chick Gandal '51, riding at the number one position, has been high man in each contest. Other regulars are Captain Bud Strouss '49 and Jack Morgan '52. The polo team operates independ- ently of the Athletic Association. To- ward its support the Cornell Polo Club raised money from parking at football games and had the checking concession at the Autumn Week End (Continued on page 200) December /, 1948 197 uated at the end of last spring term, he Symposium: had brought his cumulative average to the point where he stood in the third What Happens to Football Players? fifth of his College.
