1 @ @ -~~~~ I-,pno Bealvers on the gridiron: an IWIT football weekend By Glenn Brownstein I'm probably the nth person to write about this fantasy, but have you ever wondered what it would be like if MIT had a football team? Picture this: Briggs Stadium packed with 10,000 screaming fans awaiting the opener against Boston University or Northeastern. Cheerleaders, dres- sed in cardinal and gray, with a giant "T" on their sweaters, would lead the crowd in choruses of -e to the x du dA. e to the x Ax .. .. or "give me an M, give me an A, give Me an S .. $ (to be done only at halftime). .At precisely 1:30 on a given football weekend, MIT's appointed ladilators, culled from the "jock frats" and some of' the more athletic dorm residents, would jug onto the field in their cardinal and gray uni- forms, topped with a cardinal helmet with the traditional toothy red "Brass Rtat" beaver on it. The marching band could be an enlarged, improved version of LCA's current troupe that "performs" at A-league fO()thll ganies (yes, that is the National Anthem vouLve heard at the Kugbh F-ield on *I Sunday afternoon even though when LCA plays it, it could he anything). And what about a card section'? UCLA has one, as does USC, and computer sim ulations could generate some rather remarkable messages, as USC( found out about ten years ago. That years the UISC activities of- liee was broken into the night before the UCLA game, the sole purpose being to exchange the cards intended for use with those specially prepalred by members of the California Institute of Technology. At hallt timee before a national television audience, USC went through its routine flawlessly until the section reached the altered trick.
