A football fan all his life, Landis had played the sport 84 years ago for Millersville Normal School. “I don’t feel much older,”’ Landis said in July, ‘“‘just in my legs. I can’t play football like I used to.” Football was a lot tougher in those days, he recalled. ‘“We didn’t have any. helmets, shin guards, any of that. They played to win. You know, the way we used to get the ball carrier was to pile on him, then twist his ankle so he couldn’t run any. further.” “When we played, 3S to 40 was a big crowd. We played Columbia Iron Works mostly. They messed us up.” Of his teaching career, Landis said, ‘‘I taught arithmetic, botany, physical education, ancient history, church history—can you name anything 1 didn’t teach? Whatever they needed, I taught.” Landis gave his advice for a long life: ‘‘Breathing deep—Ilots of fresh air. Drink lots of fresh water. Keep nicotine and alochol out, and don’t worry. Worry doesn’t help. You can’t be concerned about things that won't happen anyhow.” He also had a motto for life. ‘“We’re all living in the biggest room in the world,” *71 TOYOTA Corolla, auto $1695 he said, ‘‘the room for *71 FORD Pick-up Truck $1795 improvement.” 69 MACH I MUSTANG, V8, auto $1495 Landis was born two miles ’69 CHEVY Caprice, 4 dr., HT $1195 north of Bainbridge, a son of 69 CHEVY Impala, 2 dr., HT $1395 the late Rev.
