30 KOKOMO (Ind.) TRIBUNE Sunday, Oct. 16, 1966 jiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniinimiiniiiiimiiiiiMiiitniiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitt I Bob Ford I Daddy's Missing i In Action Or Just Missing! MY NAME 13 ANGJE-. aijd my name i Nap- nctte. Our daddy usually occupies this corner; But he's missing in action Yep that's right missing in action. You see, Paddy and Jack Morrow he's daddy's best buddy and statistician Friday afternoon before we got out of school, so we haven't seen daddy since he left for work Friday morning.

Last time we saw him, in fact, he had a nerve pill in one hand, a glass of juice in the other and was going out the back door. He said something about seeing us Sunday afternoon. Mom said it was a long weekend for daddy. We sadi we thought they were all long weekends during football season. But she said no, that this.one was a little bit longer than usual.

We wondered how they could get much longer. It seems daddy and Jack went to South Bend Friday night for a little get-together with some of the sportswriters. Then dad )iad to cover the Notre Dame- North Carolina game Saturday afternoon then rush out and cover the Kckomo-South Bend St. Joe game Saturday night, Isn't that something like being in two places at the same time? We've watched dad in operation at these college football games. He never gets out of the press box until 6 o'clock or after.

He gets to be a windbag. He writes a game story, then most of the time he writes his Sunday column. Any way, we got to figuring. We got out (he pencil and paper and decided (hat, it he hurried, dad might have 27 minutes and 33 seconds In which to eai dinner Saturday night. And, knowing dad as we do, we're convinced there's no way he can eat dinner in 27 minutes and 33 seconds.

Heck, it takes him that long to get the pit out of the olive and spread his napkin. Man, you should see him eat. He says he likes to enjoy a meal. When we go out to eat, we can 'write solid hour from the time he picks up his knife and fork until he takes that last sip of-coffee. That doesn't include a trip to (be salad bar, conversation with his buddies ea route back to the table, a couple slices of garlic bread, one or two olive-garnished drinks the rocks, and a huge salad with gobs of Roquefort dressing.

You can imagine the smell. Garlic bread is bad enough, but then add those 'soaked' olives and Roquefort cheese. Wowl You can hardly stand to ride home in the same car with him. But, of course, that Jack's worry Saturday night if they got any dinner at all. Parseghian's Irish Notch Another Win North Carolina Falls.

32-0 Two Games In One THIS WEEKEND was kind of a switch dad. Most generally, you know, the Wildcats play on Friday night. Then dad doesn't have to cope with this doubleheader situation. But even on ordinary weekends, it's heclic around our bouse. There's the Friday night Wildcat game, then a two or three-hour session In the ofllce trying to get the paper out, and home to bed about 2 a.m.

he's lucky. Saturday morning. here we go again. If he goes to South Bend, he's off and running by 9 o'clock. Bloomington.

he's gone by 8:30 or so, and if he covers Purdue. gets a break. He doesn't have to leave until 10 or 10:30. No matter where he 'goes on Saturday, It's unusual If he's home by 9 o'clock at night. Would you believe not unusual If he falls asleep In tie base rocker right.

In middle of Hollywood Palace? Yep, been known to do that. Then it takes mom an hour or so to get him up and head him toward the bed. She swears there have been times he's been sound asleep before his head ever hit the pillow. INDIANA COLLEGE FOOTBALL CUNTS TRIM GRIZZLIES CRAWFORDS I Lid.

That'll Then, we know those sportswriter friends of his. at least some of (hey had a barn-bonier Friday nlghi. The Jong day Saturday will just about put the frosting on the cake.
