    c01.qxd 6/28/06 9:24 AM Page 5 1 Finding a Home eorge Preston Marshall thought he was in on the ground floor of Gthe next great sports craze of the Roaring Twenties when he pur- chased a professional franchise in a new sports league called the American Basketball League (ABL). He was right, in one sense: basketball would someday capture the attention of the American sports public. But Marshall was ahead of his time, and he didn’t have much patience to wait decades, let alone years, to reap the rewards of his sports venture. He was already a successful Washington businessman, inheriting the Palace Laundry from his father and building it into a profitable business. But Marshall liked action and being in the spotlight. He was a showman by nature, and he wanted to expand into something that gave him a greater rush than cleaning clothes. He hoped the ABL would do that, but in the era of Babe Ruth, Bobby Jones, and Jack Dempsey, thereCOPYRIGHTED was no such icon for roundball. MATERIAL Marshall’s basketball venture was not in vain, however. He made some important contacts with men of that era who had similar dreams. One man in particular who had a clearer vision of the future of Amer- ican sports was George “Papa Bear” Halas. And Halas had a standard bearer to compete with the likes of a Ruth, Jones, and Dempsey: Red Grange, who would help launch the National Football League in the 1920s. 5 c01.qxd 6/28/06 9:24 AM Page 6 6 HAIL VICTORY Halas, a former standout end and baseball player (he played with the New York Yankees in 1919), was hired in 1920 by the Staley Starch Company of Decatur, Illinois, to organize a company football team.

    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.

ALEXANDER Director of Athletics and Head Football Coach After serving as head coach of Georgia Tech football teams for twenty-five seasons, Coach Alexander turned over the reigns of the team to Bobby Dodd at the close of the 1944 season. From now on Coach Alex will spend all of his time at the job of Head of the Athletic Department, which in- cludes the newly formed physical education branch. Although his last team on the gridiron was not as suc- cessful as some of those in the past, praise was heaped upon Alexander from every part of the nation when the sport lost one of its most colorful and popular figures. From now on the football team of Tech will miss Alex- ander, but he will continue exerting all of his genius and efforts toward making a better Tech. BOBBY DODD Former Backfield Coach and New Head Coach Acclaimed for many years for his work in developing the Georgia Tech backfield, Bobby Dodd will start the 1945 season as the director of the Jacket squad. The job is not altogether new to Dodd as he has been called upon at different times during the past seasons to coach the team when Coach Alex was confined to his bed because of illness.

The compilation of the All-America roster was supervised by a panel of analysts working in large part with the historical records contained in the files of the Dr. Baker Football Information Service. The roster consists of only those players who were first-team selections on one or more of the All-America teams that were selected for the national audience and received nationwide circulation. Not included are the thousands of players who received mention on All-America second or third teams, nor the numerous others who were selected by newspapers or agencies with circulations that were not primarily national and with viewpoints, therefore, that were not normally nationwide in scope.
