  • The College All-Star Football Classic
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 22, No. 2 (2000) The College All-Star Football Classic By Jon Grogan INTRODUCTION In early 1934, Chicago mayor Edward Kelly asked the editor and publisher of the Chicago Tribune, Colo- nel Robert McCormick, to help stage a sports spectacle as an adjunct to the city’s Century of Progress exposition. A year earlier, the Tribune hosted the first all-star baseball game at Comisky Park to help boost attendance at the exposition. The game was a financial and promotional success, and it catapulted its organizer, Tribune sports editor Arch Ward, to a preeminent position in the area of sports promotion. After speaking to the mayor, McCormick turned again to his thirty-seven year old sports editor for another idea. Ward subsequently met with his friend, Chicago Bear owner George Halas, and the two tossed around the idea for a football game between a team of the nation’s best collegiate players and the de- fending National Football League champions. Each man saw benefits in staging such a contest. Arch Ward joined the Chicago Tribune in January 1925, fresh from the campus of the University of Notre Dame where he had been Knute Rockne’s press secretary. His primary job at Notre Dame lay in promot- ing Rockne and his “Rambler” (precursor to the “Fighting Irish”) football team to eastern newspapers, par- ticularly those in New York City. After stints as a copyreader and the assistant sports editor, Ward be- came the Tribune’s sports editor in April 1930. Although he lacked the journalistic skills of sports report- ers like Grantland Rice and Ring Lardner, Ward was an accomplished and indefatigable promoter.
