College Football Attendance Records Across the South and West
A collage of letters and figures shows 1943 college football attendance rising across Santa Clara, California, Duke, and North Carolina programs. Estimates highlight Duke drawing about 140000 over ten games, UC Berkeley near 390000 in ten games, and Santa Clara reports totaling 208000 for seven games, with California and St. Mary’s also noted. The piece traces the southern rise of big-time football from Georgia Tech to Duke under Wallace Wade, and notes California high school agricultural profits reaching 122000 in the last fiscal year.
