Syracuse Eyes Night Football With Sampson and Lafayette
The Syracuse football schedule may include a night game with Cornell and Lafayette at Archbold Stadium, hoping to set attendance records with 25 000 or more for the Big Red clash and 10 000 to 15 000 for Lafayette. Sampson considers a home and home series but is undecided. Ossie Salem could take seven or eight games, while Sampson risks being too strong. Baltimore and Rochester draw 16 000 in a double header, as Alphonse Thomas boosts attendance in Baltimore. Joe Louis faces Army camp tours with mixed Army papers criticizing the show for morale concerns. Connie Smythe, wounded Canadian Army major and former hockey chief, is honored in Canada for his wartime service.
