Who, you ask, is Alaric Sigafoos7 Come closer, sit down, light a Philip Morris, savor that natural tobacco goodness, sigh contentedly, cross your fat little legs, and listen. Alaric Sigafoos (1368-1931) started life humbly on a farm dear Thud, Kansas. His mother and father, both named Ralph, were bean-gleaners, and Alaric became a bean-gleaner too. But he soon tired of the work and went to Memphis where he got a job with a logging firm. Here the ex-bean-gleaner worked as a stump-thumper.- Then he drifted to Texas where he tidied up oil fields (pipe.. wiper). Then to Arizona where he strung dried fruit (fig-rigger). Then to Virginia where he was a research assistant (book-looker). Then to Long Island where he dressed poultry (duck-plucker). Then to California where he lectured young women who were about to get married (bride-chider). Then to Minnesota where he cut up frozen lakes (ice-slicer). .Then to Nevada where he determined the odds in a gambling house (dice-pricer). Then to Milwaukee where he pasted camera lenses together (Zeiss-splicer). Finally he went to Omaha where he got a job in a tannery, beating pig -hides until they were soft mid supple (hog-flogger). Here he found happiness at last. Why, you ask, did he find happiness at last as a hog flogger? Light another firm and fragrant Philip Morris, taste that true tobacco flavor, puff, relax, let sweet lassi tude possess your limbs, and listen. Next door to the hog-floggery was an almond grove owned by a girl named Chimera Emrick. Chimera was pink and white and marvelously hinged, and Alaric was hopelessly in love the moment he clapped eyes on her. Each day he came to the almond grove to woo Chimera, but to no avail. He tried with all his vigor and guile, but she, alas, stayed coot. Then one day Alaric got a brilliant idea. It was the day before the annual Omaha Almond Festival. On this day, as 'we all know, every almond growcr in Omaha enters a float in the big parade. The floats always consist of large cardboard almonds hanging from large cardboard almond trees. Alaric's inspiration was to stitch pieces of pigskin together and inflate them until they looked like big, plump almonds - . "These sure beat skinny old cardboard almonds," said Alaric to himself. "Tomorrow they will surely take first prize for Chimera, and she will be mine!" Early the next morning Alaric came running to Chimera with his inflated pigskin almonds, but she, alas, told him she was not entering a float that year. In fact, she had just sold her.almond grove and was moving East to try out with the Boston Red Sox. Alaric, upon hearing these glum tidings, flew into a violent rage. He started kicking his pigskin almonds all over the place. And who should,be walking by at that very instant but Abner Doubleday! Mr. Doubleday, who had invented baseball some years earlier, was now trying to invent football, but without success. The trouble was, he couldn't figure out what kind of ball to use. Now, seeing Alaric kick the pigskin spheroids, his problem was suddenly solved. "Eureka!" he cried, and ran to his drawing board, and the rest is history! When you go to next Saturday's game, the makers a/ Philip M or ri s , spon so r s o f this column, suggest you take along thu perfect football companion—Philip Morris, of corrisl Lacrosse Candidates rppitleSS at last•-- TSfax Shulman, 3944 PAGE SEVEN
