  • When Notre Dame Won the Rockford City Championship
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 7, No. 6 (1985) WHEN NOTRE DAME WON THE ROCKFORD CITY CHAMPIONSHIP By Emil Klosinski In the infant pre-NFL days of pro football, the fiercest rivalries were usually between two good teams in an immediate local area or even within a single city. One such rivalry in Rockford, Illinois, spawned an annual three-game series between the Grands and the A.A.C. teams. In 1916, the first such series saw the Grands lose to the Rockford "Amateur" Athletic Club. Although the A.A.C. had indeed started as an amateur organization at the turn of the century, by 1916 the club's athletic teams sported many paid athletes. The most unusual and significant series for the city championship occurred in 1919. The first game of the series was a hard-fought contest It took a long pass from George Kitteringham to end T. Redin in the waning moments to produce a 6-0 victory for the Grands. The second game was a "must" for the A.A.C., and rumors spread that they were going to "load up" for the contest. It was known that A.A.C. coach Tony Haines had contacted several stars of other pro teams. The names most mentioned were Don Oliver, star of the Chicago's Racine Cardinals; Walde, formerly of Purdue, playing for the Ft. Wayne Friars; and Stallins of Rock Island. Also in the rumor mill were a star from the Peoria Tractors and the Falcon brothers from the Hammond Bobcats. Beside being quarterback for the Grands, George Kitteringham was also coach and club president.

It scored 550 points to opponents' nothing, and journeyed 3500 miles. We played Stanford on New Year's day, using no substitutes. On this great team were Neil Snow, and the remarkable quarterback Boss Weeks. Willie Heston, who [Pg 370]was playing his first year at Michigan, was another star on this team. A picture of Michigan's great team appears on the opposite page. "Boss Weeks' two teams scored more than 1200 points. If that team had been in front of the Chinese Wall and got the signal to go, not a man would have hesitated. Every man that played under Boss Weeks idolized him, and when word was brought to the university that he had died, every Michigan man felt that its university had lost one of its greatest men.
