Since that November day when students from Princeton and Rutgers began it all, the game has thrilled generations of Americans as players and spectators . Du r ing its first hundred years, football has become more than a game. It has become a familiar and beloved part of American life and has provided an opportunity for young boys to first learn the discipline and rewards of teamwork. The boundaries of the one-hundred - yard field mark a special place for most Americans; a place in which are born legends of great skill, endurance and courage. I have always loved football. I consider the time I spent as a member of a college football squad as one of the most rewarding periods of my life . I discovered ther e - -mostly from that un ique, if often frustrating, vantage point offered by the ben ch- -that football is a game which engages the skills and talents of the whole man, his spiritual as well as his physical endurance, his mental attitude as well as his emotional conditioning . My congratulations go to interco ll egiate football - -and to all those who play the game, whether it be on a make-shift field or in the great stadiums- - on its one hundredth birthday. It is a game which not only has thrilled generations of Americans but has also helped to develop qualities of sportsmanship and competitiveness in thos e generations . 2 BOSTON COLLEGE Very Rev. W.
