  • The Best Pro a College Ever Had
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 3, No. 9 (1981) THE BEST PRO A COLLEGE EVER HAD By Bernie McCarty Only one man in the history of the game of football was a member of a major professional club and THEN returned to the college level to play another season. That man was Bob Steuber, a spectacular All-American halfback who paced the University of Missouri to Big Six Conference championships in 1941 and 1942. Fact is, Steuber's case may be unique in all of American sports history. Only a world war could have created a situation where Steuber was allowed to play again in college and nobody made a fuss. Some folks may argue, but this writer believes Bob Steuber was the best backfield operative Missouri ever had. He could do it all. As a runner Steuber exhibited blazing speed, power, and agility in an open field. Across 21 games in 1941-42 Steuber carried the ball 262 times from scrimmage for 1953 yards, averaging 7.5 yards per attempt. He passed, punted and kicked from placement. He was a wicked blocker. And Steuber often was every bit as spectacular on defense as he was on offense. The 1943 Illustrated Football Annual picked an All-Missouri Valley team of the decade. Writer Frederick Wade remarked, "My ace halfbacks are Lloyd Cardwell, Nebraska '36-'36, and Bob Steuber, Missouri '40- '42. Both these 200-pounders were sprint artists on the track team. Both were brilliant, shifty ball- carriers. They also could block like a pair of subway-commuters and on defense they always got their man.

  • The Boardwalk Trophy and the Eastern Hockey League Part 1: the Sea Gulls, the Rovers, the Olympics and the Cutters by Chuck Miller (Hockey Ink! Vol
    FROM ATLANTIC CITY TO TORONTO: The Boardwalk Trophy and the Eastern Hockey League Part 1: The Sea Gulls, the Rovers, the Olympics and the Cutters By Chuck Miller (Hockey Ink! Vol. III, Iss. 2-3) True story - The Atlantic City Boardwalk Trophy, a prize handed from champion to champion of the old Eastern League, was found in a storage shed. Brian Elwell, a former player/coach for the old Syracuse Blazers, became a successful bar and grille owner after his retirement from hockey. As we talked about the proposed new AHL team for Syracuse, Elwell reminisced about his days in the Eastern Hockey League. "You know," he said to me, "somebody dropped this trophy off at my restaurant. It's been in my storage shed for a while. Seems like I remember seeing this once or twice in my playing days." I drove to Syracuse, hoping against hope that the pilgrimage wouldn't be just a 150-mile sightseeing journey. And when Elwell brought out a missile-shaped trophy with "THE BOARDWALK CHALLENGE TROPHY," carved into its side, the engravings drowning in a sea of tarnish and dirt, I knew this was something big. -=- Our journey begins in the fall of 1930. Lincoln Dickey, manager of the Atlantic City Auditorium, imported some Montreal-based hockey players, set them up against the toughest amateur and professional teams on the East Coast, and the Atlantic City Sea Gulls were born. Led by coach Redvers McKenzie, the Gulls hosted everybody from the New York Rangers to college teams, and by 1932 they were one of the top amateur hockey squads.

  • 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.

  • Vol. 5, No. 2 (1983)
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 5, No. 2 (1983) REDSKINS FROM WASHINGTON by Bob Kirlin Below is the roster of the 1942 Redskins, who, as you know, were the most recent team to win the NFL championship before this recent season. I took it from The Sports Encyclopedia: Pro Football, then arranged the players in alphabetical order. The idea was to find if what I suspected really was true. Sure enough, it was. If you will observe the schools attended by these men, you will notice that Alabama, Notre Dame, Oklahoma, San Jose State, Texas A & M, and TCU all contributed two players each to this title-winning team. But there is one school, not too big, that contributed three players! And that is not all...the coach of this outfit was also from that same college! In other words, no other school contributed as many players to the '42 Redskins as Gonzaga of Spokane. LET'S HEAR IT FOR THE BULLDOGS! In addition, Dick Farman attended Washington State and Steve Slivinski attended Washington, so there was a real Evergreen State influence on that title team. Ki Aldrich, TCU Sammy Baugh, TCU Ed Beinor, Notre Dame Vic Carroll, Nevada Ed Cifers, Tennessee Fred Davis, Alabama Rufus Deal, Auburn Andy Farkas, Detroit Dick Farman, Washington State John Goodyear, Marquette Cecil Hare, Gonzaga Ray Hare, Gonzaga Ed Justice, Gonzaga Steve Juzwik, Notre Dame John Kovatch, Northwestern Al Krueger, USC Charley Malone, Texas A & M Bob Masterson, Miami, Fla.
